There were hints, spy shots and other information on the upcoming A2-licence compatible sub-500cc Aprilia super sports, rumoured to be called the RS 440, and it is now here in the flesh. Aprilia has elected to christen it the RS 457, which means it packs 17 more cc’s than expected and it is gorgeous!
There’s no information on the price at the time of going to press, but we expect all of that Italian style may not exactly be what you’d call pocket-friendly. While the main development work was carried out in Italy, Aprilia’s Indian team provided lots of input during the development process. It will be manufactured at Aprilia’s Indian plant, located in Baramati, Maharashtra, which should make it a bit more affordable.
