Take an RS 660, the Aprilia bike that reinvented the mid-size sport category, and imagine wanting it even meaner, even more precise between the kerbs, and maybe even lighter weight… Obviously, Noale have already thought about that! With an SC Project exhaust system, carbon components, a single-seat tail fairing, reverse gear software, and an exclusive racing-inspired colour scheme, enter the RS 660 Extrema, the sportiest version of the RS 660 range. The name harks back to the Aprilia 125 Extrema, manufactured from 1992 to 1994, that remained in the hearts of the many bikers who remember the outstanding – indeed, extreme – performance of that little 125 cc beast.
We in the #bearacer club community contacted Moto2 rider Tommaso Marcon, born in 1999, for a friendly chat about the RS 660 Extrema and his role as official Aprilia Racing tester and digital content creator…
