Lite bilder på nya RSV 1000 R Factory + lite info om uppdateringar
Once again, in 2006 the RSV 1000 R Factory will be the top of the RSV 1000 R range: today on the stage of EICMA in Milan, the RSV 1000 R Factory presents itself as an enhanced version of the 1000 R MY ’06, the world’s top twin-cylinder supersport.
Here are the important details that distinguish the Factory from the standard RSV 1000 R:
· Fully adjustable Öhlins rear monoshock
· Adjustable Öhlins steering damper fitted as standard
· Gold painted, forged aluminium wheels
· Carbon parts kit fitted as standard
· Rider's seat with non-slip racing upholstery
· Frame finished in gold
· Pirelli SuperCorsa Pro 120/70 – 190/55 ZR 17 tyres
The renewed V60 Magnesium engine and the new RSV 1000 R chassis combine with special ultra-light materials and the world's best production components.
As happened for the 1000 R, even the V60 Magnesium engine that powers the Factory has benefited from many improvements introduced to boost performance and achieve Euro 3 homologation at the same time. The new engine puts out 105.24 kW (143 HP) at 10000 rpm and develops a maximum torque of 103 Nm at 8,000 rpm. The exhaust system now has external catalytic converters that are installed nearer the collector pipes to cut activation time. The Factory is homologated to Euro 3 standards as a result, meaning lower emissions than ever before.
The Factory has the same super-light frame as the RSV 1000 R. Only the gold finish is different, giving the bike a more aggressive look. The swingarm is the same too, but is polished instead of painted for greater wear resistance.
v The 43 mm upside-down Öhlins Racing fork is titanium nitride (TiN) coated for maximum smoothness. Its advanced design with longer sleeves and shorter fork bottoms reduces load at two critical points, the slide bush and the stanchion to fork bottom joint). Wheel travel is 120 mm.
Like all top racing forks, the Öhlins allows precision adjustment of compression and rebound damping as well as spring preload.
The fork has new, forged aluminium mounting blocks to enable radial calipers to be fitted.
As regards brakes, the RSV 1000 R Factory is at the cutting edge of technology, and is equipped with Triple Bridge, radial caliper front brakes developed by Aprilia in conjunction with Brembo.
The rear brakes are Brembo too, and have a 220 mm stainless steel disc and a caliper with two 32 mm pistons.
The front and rear braking circuits both use aeronautical metal braid hoses to eliminate the pressure variations associated with conventional rubber brake lines, guaranteeing maximum braking precision.
What places the RSV 1000 R Factory in a class of its own is the care taken in its design and manufacture and the attention paid to every single component on the bike. The result is increased performance, better feel and greater ridability, with reduced weight and a quality and finish that no other bike can equal.
An exclusive two chamber steering damper from Öhlins Racing’s competition range is fitted as standard. The damper is adjustable to adapt steering response to all possible riding conditions.
Extensive use of carbon components makes the bike far lighter as well as more refined. The mudguards and various fairing parts are made of extremely light woven carbon composite. The RSV 1000 R Factory also features a steering pin in aluminium instead of steel to help reduce weight.
The Factory’s exclusive forged wheels deserve special mention. These are one of the most distinctive features of the bike, not just in appearance, but in technical specifications too.
They are forged in Anticorodal 6061 aluminium using an 8,000 ton hydraulic press. This manufacturing technique produces wheels that are totally free from the defects and porosity that can always occur in conventional casting processes, and gives exceptional mechanical characteristics.
Finite element analysis was used to identify the best possible wheel design. The result is a six spoke front wheel and a five spoke back wheel with ‘Y’ profile spokes forking at the rim to provide two anchor points each.
The saving in weight is also exceptional. Each wheel weighs about 25% less than the lightest available wheels made using conventional aluminium casting techniques. Added together, all these tiny reductions mean that the RSV 1000 R Factory achieves an amazing dry weight of only 185 kg.

kommer med en sån.
skulle vara riktigt läckert.
