I just picked up a 2012 RSV4 with a Werkes exhaust and I absolutely love it, almost as much as my R1.
Thanks for taking us along for the ride! Wish you many happy adventures.
Congrats on the new machine moto super great bike!
Great looking bike and I love the custom work you've done! The RSV4 is one of my dream bikes, congrats.
love what you've been doing with your channel. keep it up bro
Beautiful Bike brother. It competes right up there with my BMW S1000RR.
BMW can match performance, but not the sound or style
I could listen to that gorgeous sound all day!!!!
This was one fookin epic vid man =)
Sounds brilliant. I have the same exhaust on my 2017 Yamaha R1. Very loud and aggressive sound. Love it!
Amazing bike, Bro! Love that sound!!
I've just discovered your channel. Watched a pile of content. What absolute top quality. As for your Aprilia - speechless OMG.
Hey Dave, thanks for the great comments. Welcome aboard, thanks so much for your support and hope you enjoy the ride. Love having you on board. MP
Love this awesome sound dude. Very nice bike! 😎✌️
Great Vid Moto Pilot. Really enjoying your work. Cool modifications on your bike. It looks great. I have a new 17' Tuono. I use it much the same way as you do. The higher revs are almost unusable on a public road without the fear of your license bursting into flames!
I have a 2014 RSV4 Factory and I painted the wheels red. It can be tricky powder coating sports bike wheels, especially if they're forged. The powder coaters oven runs around 500 degrees. If they do not accurately control the oven's temperature, you could get into a temperature range that will 'anneal' the wheel and metallurgically damage it. Possibly resulting in failure. The RR's wheels are cast, so it's less susceptible to potential damage, but it's worth a google. Nice bike! Love mine
that sound is sick. great bike man
The sound from this thing is mind boggling.
Been working on a house outside all day for the last few day and keep hearing a v4 I'm sure. Haven't caught a glimpse yet but I'm almost sure it's an RSV4. Such a beautiful sound!
Keep the RSV4 videos coming, love the way you modded it. Very tastefully executed! Looks like you're in SoCal maybe I'll run into you one day!
Dude it sounds soooooo gooooood!!!! Congrants on the new bike and sponsors bud!
Chipster .28 Thanks bud. I'm stoked
Orgasm to your ears lmao!
I'm starting to like that sound
My first bike was ban 84 interceptor 750 with a wolf header and kerker exhaust, it sounded like a CR 500, lots of tickets on that bike!!!!!
Cool beans bro... I had an interceptor 750.
Crashed in '85, 6.5weeks coma... some idiot's U-turn stopped my bike, I kept going.
Old news! New news: life starts at 150!
I💌Aprilia RSV4 RF. Can't keep an ole man down.
Sir...I really like the color choices made. I really like the new look. It still has that "pilot" feel. Good work and be safe.
Your Bike looks incredible man !
Love that sound! Beautiful bike!
Damn you Moto Pilot... you are gonna cost me so much money, I want rsv4 in my garage right next to my 600 and 750 towering over them both. Great videos brotha ✌️
In regards to gearing... A buddy of mine wanted to go up 2t on the rear of his '14 RSV4 and I had just changed the chain and gearing on the rear sprocket on my Shiver. I ended up giving him my stock 44t rear and he said the change was exactly what he needed.
The great thing about Aprilia is the parts interchangeability is fantastic. Until very, very recently, their mid-to-high output bikes have tended to share any parts that aren't performance specific, like chains, sprockets, cush drive, rotors, etc... I put a set of Tuono V4R forks with Brembo calipers on the front of my Shiver and it all bolted right up, aside now having to take the fender off to put it on a headlift stand since the front end is a bit shorter. Does give faster turn in, though.
woow the bike looks very clean. good job and keep it up.
One of the best custom mods that I have seen!
great video and great bike :)
makes me miss my old RSV4 :(
Oh yeah, the punch at the start was hilarious!
That thing looks and sounds amazing !
Rick Wall Thank you, fine sir. MP
Great vid man....Just bought a 2013 RSV4 Factory myself, and am looking to replace the cheesy looking Leo Vince pipe it currently has, with a CW pipe as well....Been looking for full length ride vids that really show what the pipe sounds like under "real world" riding conditions...A big plus was that you're running the db killer.....I wanted to hear what it sounds like with that installed, as that's probably how I'll run mine most of the time. Keep up the good work! ;)
Awesome ride u got there! Quick question...u mentioned Ebay when talking about ur levers. Can u tell me who makes em? Thanks in advance and take care!
Very nice upgrades, bravo. Best bike atm, maybe Tuono. The 1100 next year...daunting!
Nicest bike I have ever seen, love what u have done to it
beautiful bike .Drive save, happy rides brother
Hey brother nice video. I’m hopefully about to get my hands on my very first Rsv4. I’m coming off a Z650 naked bike. How would you say the transition was between the naked and your Aprilia?
beautiful bike man love it
That bike is absolutely gorgeous bravo 👌🏻👌🏻
Moto Pilot...Kudos for the new bike...helmet...attitude!
See you around Lake Hills and Calico Rd!
Kevin Ho Yeah buddy. thanks
Love that bike. Looks killer.
sick helmet man , love new bike
Sound and look is great, well done.
Love this bike and this look
Brilliant bike, great video, more exaust sounds!
A7madTSH And more cow bell. lol
Rock on bro. See you at the track or somewhere else. I just pulled the trigger on an RSV4 RF LS.
Its still in it's box and that's okay...
cuz my safety equipment is just leaving revzilla today!
Two years of ownership, and I still have a work of art. Nothing needs upgrading but gonna do exhaust cuz warranty is over... Ha Ha... Italian warranty?🤔😂🤣 But really they did fix stuff, like my horn needed connecting.
I💌my RSV4 RF.
Been to Autobahn CC raceway for labor day weekend for two years. Damn this is life!
Grattan raceway 1 lap sub 1:50. Not bad for a 57 year old... See:
ua-cam.com/video/MPZ5PTx7Ass/v-deo.html
Very nice bike, what brand of levers did you get that was from ebay?
Can you put a slip on exhaust without losing performance, just got the 17 rr they said don't do that until I get the racing ecu that's alot
Its gonna be my next bike once i had done on my supersport. It roars !
Do a vid on the rsv4 triple headlights function like high and low beam modes
awesome bike bro. love it
Awesome video. Aprilia is beasting lately. but DAMN, look at those chicken strips. Don't like taking corners? Or are those brand new shoes?
Can you put the link for the levers?. They look awesome man!
Lol you were riding in the city I used to live in back when I was in Cali haha that’s awesome.
Loved the backpack mic bit
Did you get a race icu before the exhaust the dealership told me I need a race ecu before I put a slip on on my 2017
Your dealer is correct
Great bike buddy.. awesome color and stickers scheme, the sound of it makes goose bumps!
The AGV helmet was also a perfect match ;)
How did you mount the Gopro right in the middle by the way?
\m/ Ride in peace bro
Hellishrider Thanks. just used a sticky go pro mount. Theres a flat surface there. MP
try the gp shift conversion, I did it on my rf ,These bikes are amazing,
Did you have any ECU work done to the bike to accommodate the exhaust system? I have a '17 RF and was told in order to put an aftermarket exhaust on it I needed the race ECU or it would throw codes.
luvs2race370 I had the slip on for weeks with no codes. But now I have the race ECU
Yeah. I just installed my Yoshi Alpha Titanium a few days ago and it gave me an engine light after the first few miles. Maybe they changed something between '16 and '17. I have the race ECU also, but can't get it installed for a few weeks. What did you do with the exhaust valve servo? Mines just tied up for now. Going to remove it completely soon.
nice review
I f all goes okay it ll be my next bike this year , best seating position of all the 1000. s.
I. m 1,85 cm
Coming of a tuned zx6 r , i ll still miss the high rev haul /boost a bit I reckon .
Very very beautifull bike !!!! (Design and sound ..!!!!)
Clean bike man
Looks great. I agree about the gearing. I changed mine to a 15 tooth sprocket and it made things just like you want. Wheelies a little easier too.
What gear are you wheeling in buddy?
2013 RSV4 Factory. It was a real pain to get around in any traffic. Changing the 16 T counter sprocket to a 15 T changed it enough to make things good. It won't do 180 with that gear but you'll like it.
Also, I installe a full akrapovic exhaust and opened up the race map. That made things much smoother....better.
R- for race or road? T- track and S for sports ?
nice video!!!
I had to re watch the intro lmfao im dying!
Dude every time I ride "what are all these people doing out here?? Fuck!!" Totally relatable. Everybody stay the fuck home so we can ride!
MP, all your additions are so tasteful. I don't know much about Aprilia bikes in general. Italian made right? Is this a rival bike to an R1-M? H2? What advantages does it have vs a Japanese made SS? Your gear is smooth too. Does the new helmet have led's? (very cool looking at night.) Thanks for educating me. Btw, I don't ride anymore, but I get the whole V4 unexplainable power thing. (My one and only bike was an off the floor V65 Sabre.) ☮️
Chuck Mastin Hey Chuck. The RSV4 isnt quite at the H2 power level. its somewhere between standard 1000s and the H2. MP
I'd definitely put the gp pipe on!
Haha same! Love it loud!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Just discovered ur channel! Its awesome! 2 Thumbs up on ur bike. Looks great n sounds great. I had a Ducati Monster M900 with full Termignoni Pipes, that thing woke the dead! This bike sounds like a T-Rex. Its my next bike for sure. Also i like ur riding style, similar to mine, quick burst here n there when its clear ahead, im not great at corners but i guess thats why i aint fallen yet in 13 years of riding. Also free revving the bike between gears just to hear it! Btw the Ducati monster M900 drinks gas like a Fish... i ran out of gas 3 times. Theres nongauge so im knocking on the side of the tank n looking into the gas tank before every ride. Nice vid keep it safe and keep em videos coming. P.S up a few teeth in the back would be great!!!
Hi Krish and welcome to my world. Funny you notice my free-revs between gears. Old habit I just noticed I do recently. For starters Im just going to drop one tooth on the front and see how that goes since I do a lot of freeway boring miles. Then maybe jump one tooth on the rear. The RSV4 does have a gas light but no gauge. My Suzuki 1000 gets 42mpg...the RSV4 only 31.
Had a low fuel scare coming to work this morning actually. Whew! MP
MOTO PILOT Use your mic if you can plugged direct into the zoomh4 set it to 96khz 24bit, low cut on, comp/limiter to studio and set to 2channel. If it works like my zoom H2N you will get crystal clear in helmet audio and audio from outside the bike. Just in the process of uploading a video about it. You will not regret the audio change.
dude i wanted to ask you what kind of levers those were. they look so sick
Grim214 Some generic brand on ebay. Search n u shall find 😁
I like all the reasons you love the bike for, especially the sound and the frame, but the quality control and maintenance can be painful compared to a Kawi, Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha. My friend had an Aprilia about 6 years ago, and after 4 years had endless problems. He decided to get rid of it. I hope you have better luck with long term ownership.
this is a beautiful bike
Hey bro did you have to get it remapped? I've read in forums that due to the ride by wire system, if you put an aftermarket exhaust there's a lean spot unless you get a race ecu or a remap
Race ECU. Though Competition Werkes claimed it didn't need mapping
Thanks man! I'm still keeping my dream alive of owning one of them beauties and looking at the '16 model specifically (love the old school tach/speedo). Love your VFR project man, got one myself. Keep making them awesome vlogs brother!
What is the proper break in for a 2016 RSV4 rr? I'm picking one up with less than 100 miles on it. Are there any factory restrictions like the s1000rr that dealer assistance is a must? I'm not a big fan of dealerships working on my vehicles.
Ruano09 1st breakin is under 6000rpm for 600 miles. then first oil change. 2nd brewkin is stay under 9000 for 1200 0r 1600 miles. i forget. sounds like you got a steal of a deal
MOTO PILOT thanks for the info!! And yes I do. Apparently the guy won the bike from a raffle or something but he's not a rider, I'm getting it for $11k!
You need to go do a track day after you break it in, you'll love it! I'm going this weekend to do my mine on my 2017 Kawasaki ZX-10R!
You are totally right. The only way to truly unleash the Beast! MP
2:36 This is a shadow or badly welded frame?(left side)
Wicked bike. Ride safe. Fellow Ape owner.
Dude my T Rex clutch cover wouldn't fit on mine and it rubs against the frame :/ Very good review and I love the mods!
The Muscle Biker Let TRex know. Great people. MP
Yeah I sent them videos and everything and they said I didn't know how to install it. I've done valve adjustments and everything to do with a bike so I know I'm not crazy haha I even had friends try to install it on and it won't fit. Did you ever flash your ECU? Get it done by Gabro Racing Team it changes the bike in so many different ways!
Great review, bro. I have a 2017 Ninja 1000 and I'm contemplating trading it in for the 2018 RSV4 RR. It's a gorgeous bike. Does it generate a lot of heat? I know the Panigale V4S is notorious for running very hot.
Get the RSV4. it will ignite your senses. They can generate some heat....around 215 on hot days but its worth it. Sound n power galore
just picked up a 2016 with no miles...100 miles in with moderate 70's temps feels fine
awesome bike, my wet dream bike :D
just the stock gearing sucks compared to other 1000 cc, way too "top end" oriented, but I can see what Aprilia has tried to do with the rsv4 (track oriented bike)
Do you have to get a race ECU or reflash your stock one with that shorty or race slip on?
Ruano09 Acv No. According to Competition Werkes
What did u do with the exhaust valve?
Nice looking bike man, please send me the link on ebay for your levers and your LED headlight? thanks
Akrapovic, Renthal and GiaMoto on mine! The best in upgrades
where did you get your wheels powder coated ? i want to do it to my s1000 wheels!!! and i live in OC
they come standard like this on the factory rsv4
Krilly I'll find out the name soon. in Corona
thank you

How can i get the aprilia graphics like yours?
email me at motopilot6@gmail.com. I'm actually making these available to the public
I love riding on Cajalco!
Very cool bike, are you going to SCMM? It would be cool to see the bike. 👌
Silversurfer Tim I think so. I should be there. Making a video about it soon. MP
I have that same pipe on my new Tuono factory and literally have to wear ear plugs! It’s definitely a cool looking pipe, but just to loud for me.
Again brother amazing. Could you help me out with the link for the levers you got for it? Thanks again and take care.
You will love these for an insane $30. How do they do this? Sweat shops?

MOTO PILOT Thanks again brother, again appreciate the help and as always good stuff. Take care.
Hey Moto Pilot...know that road well....used to go around Lake Matthews all the time down to the 15 long before there was much population that there is now.
I live on the east coast now but took my RF around Palomar and 74 In Palm Desert last year....sure beats the days of the 84 Ninja and FJ11OOs...my 96 gixxer 750 was fairly sweet though but cannot compare w/ the modern stuff like our Aprilias....
if I make it out there again w/my RF I will try and give you a Shout out...nice customization by the way....Now you need to upgrade the suspension.!!!!
if interested, I could sell you my RF rear as I upgraded to keep up w/the 17 model.
CIAO!!!
You could adjust the sag it will drop the suspension down by 1.5"
where did you get you're helmet custom ?
TeamCs27 I designed the stickers and had ZLT make them. Their website is in video description.
nice love good bike
Lake Hills area in Riverside! I'm in Orangecrest! We should go for a ride!
I have the same levers they are amazing
what are they called?
Dope bike
Nice video 👍
👍
What helmet is that ? I'm wearing glasses too and need some help with this..
