Just bought an RS 660 on Saturday. I absolutely love it! I’ve had two late model ZX6R’s in the past and ridden a lot of other bikes, and this bike is way more fun than any of the more serious superbikes. Looking into mods and I really appreciate this video, thanks for showing me what’s possible!
Thank you my friend! A lot of people get infatuated by engine power and neglect multiple other variables that can make a bike fun, comfortable, agile, and in turn make you faster as a rider on that bike due to the benefits that it offers. I was always faster on the RS660 than I was on any other powerful 600. One of my personal preferences on ergonomics is the upgraded triple clamp with clip ons. The stock handlebars are too tall for my style of riding and a must modification for me. You will love your 660 even more as you built it to your preference.✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA I am contemplating getting the Ohlins rear shock offered by Aprillia. What do you think?
@@BillWong-c2e How much do you weight with gear? How many miles do you have on your RS660? What is your riding level?
@@ALFAVITAGA 85kg. Zero. Collecting my Extrema within two weeks. Intermediate riding level.
@@BillWong-c2e Based on your weight with gear, the stock rear spring will be able to give you enough preload before you start losing static sag. That preload will give you a good amount of rider sag for your riding level. Same goes for the shock oil and rebound. It will give you enough rebound clicks out from zero, for proper rebound. Now the stock shock suffers more on rebound than it suffers in spring preload. Spring is spring and spring rate is determined by the riders weight. As time goes by and you put more miles on your bike and you progress on your riding skills you may need a stiffer spring. But chances are that you will run out of rebound before you run out of preload. As oil degrades and your riding skills progress, you will find yourself being 1 or 2 clicks out on rebound. That is your indication of you needing a new shock. Start with the stock shock and set your suspension based on your weight. You will find that the stock shock does a fine job if set properly. Don’t rush to spend thousands on upgraded suspension just because people claim that the RS660 shock is bad. It’s not. It’s just not good for advanced riders that need stiffer spring for aggressive rider sag and a wider range of rebound or even compression that the RS660 shock does not have. Stick to the stock shock in the begging and ride it until you run it. I also have a video on my channel on how to setup the RS660 suspension if you want to check it out.
Your bike looks really clean. The front wheel definitely needs to be black and some carbon pieces will make it perfect. After seeing all your Videos I will definitely get a rs660 in the future ;D
Definitely the black wheel and some carbon parts will enhance the look! ✌️
Where can u buy a black front wheel?

@@ALFAVITAGA thank youu
Hi bro, what do you think about the brand? spider aprilia rs 660 billet top racing triple clamp?
@@ianjoe9909 Great stuff 👌
I was blown off by the expense of mods on this bike, almost purchased another 660. But the bike looks 👌🏻... cheers mate
Thank you! My pocket was also blown off 😂
@@ALFAVITAGA 😆
Financial mistake 😂
💯😂✌️
Great video... thanks for taking the time to show us all the mods. It nice to see a part actually installed on a bike rather than just a pic of the part on the manufacturers website....
Gave me a idea of what i want and dont...
Thanks
Thank you I appreciate that! ✌️
Hands down the best RS 660 i've seen
Thank you my friend! ✌️
I smell the best ultra modded RSV4 coming to this channel 😁😁
Sooner or later 😛✌️
I’m starting to love this bike, thinking of eventually buying it. Yours is beautifully customized, great taste and great job! 🔥
Thank you! This bike is unique. You can’t not love it. Especially with an aftermarket exhaust this bike shines!
@@ALFAVITAGA totally agree. It’s a shame that here in Italy we cannot legally have any aftermarket exhaust other than the optional akrapovic with CAT and db killer installed.
Anyways, would you personally recommend this bike to a beginner?
@@JustFrankMan Under the right circumstances, yes I would recommend it as a beginner bike. The RS660 was my first bike.
@@ALFAVITAGA thanks man
@@ALFAVITAGA What circumstances are they? I'm 24 and want to get into riding, but don't want to do silly speeds so figured a light ~650 would be perfect. You've got a beautiful bike for sure man, lot of hard work you can tell. Love from the UK
Súper tu video bro , estaba pensando en ponerle a mi Aprilia Evotech Performance Short Brake and Clutch Lever Set 660's & V4's, Que piensas de eso ? , saludos 🖖
I can’t confirm that the Evotech levers will clear the fairings. I’m not a fan of shorty levers personally, but in the end it comes down to preference.

Dont get a new bike!!! You are the NUMBER 1 Aprilia RS660 channel right now!!! Thats what makes your bike and channel so dope!! And i love your mods bc they are not over doing it!! Just right mods.. Good taste great choices!!
Funny i was gonna ask why triple clamp looks gold but its kinda dope looking lol
So no RSV4? 😛
Lol well damn if you put it that way lol
Get the X-Trenta 😍😍😍
Does the headlight vinyl wrap affect night driving alot? Its dark alot of the time in my country😅 but i LOVE your bike!
@@faroerides7851 Thank you! I haven’t ridden it at night, but I believe visibility will be minimized with the vinyl wrap. Probably not safe to do.
I love your channel, each video is better. Greetings from the Canary Islands❤🇮🇨
I appreciate the feedback brother! Thank you! ✌️
Dumb question, maybe. If you have full coverage insurance what spend all that money on protectors? If the tank etc gets damaged insurance will get you a new one, no?
Insurance is not as simple as that. There is a deductible that you must pay before they cover the damage, and it usually is not worth having a claim under your insurance as they will raise your premium. Between the premium monthly raise and the deductible it’s just not worth it to go through your insurance.
Great video Mike, just keep it and build it into something even more special
Thank you brother! Will do! 👌
Did you really put a vinyl film on main headlights? 😄 How is the ride during the night ouu of the city?
@@adama007 I never ride at night so I really don’t know. My guess is that it wont be a good idea. ✌️
I want to watch this video but the background music is too loud. Upload with lower vol music
@@RolandoGarciaGonzalez I have lowered the background music on the videos I recorded after this up until today. I can’t lower it on this one once it’s uploaded. ✌️
super nice bike bro, what year is the aprilla? thinking of buying one myself.
Thank you! This is a 2021 model. The first one that came out.
I have those same bars. What brand break guard are those!? I want a pair and can’t find ones that fit these bars.
Generic brand bought from Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B09FWWFJK2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Buy a Ducati Panigale Instead of speending that much :)
I bought an RSV4. Maybe Ill get a Pani next ✌️
I see like $2-3k of money mods. And $13,800 damn could have gotten a gsxr 750 and be much better then the rs 660. It’s not worth it spending on it. Only thing the bike really needs exhaust, tune, better suspension, and some protection and that’s it.
It all depends on needs. For me the must have mods are: Exhaust, Tune, Air Filter, Stacks, Sprocket-gearing, Triple/Clip ons, Tank Sliders, Heel Guard, Tail Tidy and Belly pan cover. I wouldn’t go without them. Suzukis are amazing bikes but I prefer exotic. So I went with an RSV4. ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA nice congrats on the rsv4
@@Sanjko87 Thank you ✌️
Hello, what is the point to change the clamp? thanks.
The stock handlebars are a bit too tall, made for comfort. If you need to change the clip ons to a lower setup you must use an aftermarket triple clamp.
RS660 699,000.- Price in thailand
Thats crazy!
Very informative, thank you😊
You’re welcome! ✌️
Them mods cost way too much. Where did you get them from
I have listed all the mods and where to get them in the description.
What about the visibility during night cz of the vinyl wrap on your lights
It’s not ideal. But I don’t ride at night.
@@ALFAVITAGA thanks
how is the visibility with the wrap over the headlights? do you have any photos/videos uploaded to your instagram acc?
I never rode it at night so I don’t have an answer. I would assume that at least with the high beam you would have some visibility. But I wouldn’t recommend it for night riders. ✌️
alotta money on a 600 , literally coulda got the rsv4 & had change for mods ; i like it though , very tidy
i'm in uk , just got motodynamic (usa based) tail light , built in sequential indicators & smoked out colour , clean up your rear even more
Well how about both this and an RSV4 lol? 😛✌️
beautiful bike man, mine is still a work in progress but inspiring. i don't know about you but one of the high priority items on my list after riding it is suspension upgrade, i think that would just make the bike perfect, my only nit on the bike given i'm on the heavier side :). also maybe worth getting mag or carbon wheels. but thank you so much
fwiw, i think it's worth it. this bike is just such a perfect blend, i'm sure that Aprilia will continue to do bold things like they did with the Trofeo but getting the parts and configuration you want, that's just a cost for having the perfect bike for you, you'll never get that back out of the bike except in how much you love looking at and riding it. also my driver's license is thanking me every day for having enough restraint to _not_ get the RSV4 ... gracias a dios LOLOL
Thank you! If you are over 200lbs, chances are you will need a new rear shock. Or at the very least just a new spring with a different spring rate. ✌️
What product do you use to get the paint so shiny?
I use Isopropyl alcohol.
Is CRT road legal in the US?
It is not.
I also want to order this bike freshhly from the vendor. Black seems very nice but im not a fan of too many stickers which come on standard. Is it possible to remove these? I mean the "a" for example
Yes, on the RS660 you can remove all the stickers with no problem. All you need is a heat gun or a hairdryer to apply heat as you peel them off.
Could you tell me how did you mount the lever guards because I want to buy bonamici clip ons and dont know if mine current guards will fit cause they are mounted by bolts
The Bonamici clip ons have a hollow tube. They are not compatible with bolt screw lever guards just like the stock handlebars. Any aftermarket lever guard that utilizes the expandable insert should work.
how tall are you? How does this bike feel for your height especially with those clip ons. Still comfortable for stop and go compared to like an r6?
The RS660 with the clip ons brings the body position close to what an R6 is. I’ve rode both bikes and I couldn’t tell much of a difference. Although the RS660 is more comfortable than the R6 is.
Dude this build. Best 660 BY FAR. Taking so many of these ideas from you BOSS
Thank you! Take all the ideas that you can ✌️
@ALFAVITAGA Just got my frame sliders, brake/clutch guards, and tank guards ordered for my 2023 Racing Black. Thanks for the video and the links!
I appreciate it brother! Enjoy it! ✌️
That belly cover is MINT!!! My favorite exhaust on ANY bike is the CRT!!!! But.....I hate how it makes the bottom of the RS660 look so empty! What a great little part!
When you did the mirrors did the up map change the signal lights to the headlights or I'm assuming you have the euro spec which doesn't have the signals in the mirrors? We get them with signals in the mirrors over here in North America
I live in LA so this is the US version that gets the turn signals in the mirrors and not the headlights. When I installed the Upmap, Gabros map brought the turn signals in the headlights. The CRT is an amazing sounding exhaust. I think it can make a poorly sounding bike sound like a beast. But I also hated that gap that it left, so this belly fairing transformed the looks of the bike. ✌️
You should make the rear rim red like the front. I just bought a used black ‘22 RS 660 and it looks so much better with front and rear red rims.
It’s just preference. Some people prefer both wheels black and some red. But with a red rear wheel it would require more often cleaning from the chain dust and lube.
I want to do Carbon wheels on mine and maybe carbon frame covers.
Carbon frame covers transforms this bike.
I would like to see all Carbon RS660. That would be the first!! That would look bad ass for an RS660
💯👌✌️
The Luimoto seat only, without the gel is comfortable? Better or worse than the stock seat?
The Luimoto is only a cover. Its not a seat. It just wraps on top of the stock seat. So its equally comfortable.
Do you think that the rs660 is reliable I read somewhere that they had engine issues?
The first production models had some recalls with the con rods. They shorted them out quick. Any model after May 2021 was not under any recalls. Some oil pan leaks were reported, but resolved under warranty with just tightening the oil pan bolts or replacing the gasket. Other than that no issues. My RS660 never had any of these issues.
Very nice video man! I have Tuono 660, not as many mods as you :) Thinking of buying Akra or SC, I want't the sound but tbh its not worth the money. Spend $2k but it adds maybe $500 to bike's resale value. Your bike is really special.
Thank you my friend! Modification don’t add much to the resale value unfortunately. I prefer SC than Akra for the RS660 by the way.
all these mods and no tankpads?!
I didn’t want to cover that beautiful Apex Black color. Plus I never really felt like needing them. I will install them on my RSV4 though.
How did you get this beautiful brilliant black tank on the bike ? Is it stock ?
This is the stock color that came from factory. Its the Apex Black color that comes on the 2021-2022. They changed the black to matte black on the 2023.
I think for your headlights, you should get dark tint headlight covers from either fast bike bits or STP race products. I have the dark tint headlight covers on my ‘22 RS 660 and it makes it look much better.
I could but it costs around $40 compared to $15 that I payed for the entire wrap that I can wrap more than one bike. But cost is not the major drawback for me. It’s the fact that the tint covers don’t come in black matte but only gloss. Also the lines don’t match perfectly to cover the entire headlight. Plus I don’t only want to tint the inner headlight but the outer also as seen on the video. For these reasons I prefer to vinyl wrap them. But if all the above were covered by this product I would definitely purchase it and save time in wrapping them. Thanks for the tip though. For some this product will be a better substitute to wrapping.
That’s definitely understandable
If you want to save weight (4lbs)change out your stock acid battery to a Lithium battery
The stock RS660 battery is lithium.
What a fuckin beautiful bike
Thank you! ✌️
im curious about how the clip ons with someone riding it and how ti feels compared to stock, and how does it compare to like a proper supersport like an r6 or a 636
The body position feels more like a proper supersport. I have ridden an R6 and it feels very similar. Although somehow the RS660 felt more comfortable than the R6 even with clip ons. For me the clip ons is a must modification for the RS660.
I love your bike! I am a big fan of the rs 660s but with all of the mods and tunes how fast can it get up to in mph.
Up to 120mph it rips. After that it is a bit sluggish.
What happened to that AliExress seat cowl you had installed in a previous short video? That thing looked sweet
I have it. I just chose to install the Aprilia cowl for this video. It does look good. Its hard to choose between the two.
whats your recommendation for cheaper alternatives to spider rearsets?
The Spider rearsets where the cheapest on the market when I got them on sale at around $750.
That colorwasy is the dopest of em all
me personally id go with greeen accents onstead of red but gaaaaad dammmmmmmn
ride safe!
Yes the Apex Black is my favorite of all. Green accents would look great! ✌️
you forgot the Wheel Decal Kit on your rear tire or it was included when you bought the bike
You’re right. Thats one more thing I forgot to mention. I added that myself. Its the Aprilia wheel decal kit.
Great video man, i would like to remove the "a" sticker as you did, any tips on how to do a clean job? Thanks
Yes. Take a hair dryer and apply heat to the sticker. Apply more heat to the edge that you will start peeling. As you peel the sticker off, keep applying heat to the edge of the peel. Go slow and it should leave no residue. You will have an “a” faded outline. Take a cloth and some surface cleaner and wipe it off. It should be as good as new. ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA thank you 👌
Great video! Love these videos!
Thank you, I appreciate that!
She's absolutely stunning, got just one question, does the SC Project Heelguard on the left side is comprised in the one you linked in the description or is it just an oopsie? Really considering getting an RS660 soon. Also one last question, did it come with all the ugly Aprilia stickers and did you remove em? Was it hard?
Thank you! On the left side there is no heel guard other than the heel guard from the Spider rearsets. I’m assuming since you mentioned SC Project, you are probably referring to the left side swingarm cover where I have the SC Project sticker? If thats what you mean then that comes stock with the bike. I just added the sticker. I also removed most of the Aprilia stickers with a hair dryer. It was very easy to do and they peel right off if you apply heat to them. ✌️
What brand are the clutch and lever guards . Do they fit on the oem bars
Check my pinned comment. I have the link there. It didn’t fit in the description. They don’t fit on the OEM bars.
wait u placed vinyl on ur headlight? does the light go through or do u not right at night etc? Very clean bike btw. Hope I can get one next year
Thank you! The light does not go through. I left the high beam uncovered in case Im caught in the night which I almost never do.
Did you get any or did your bike come with any of the accessories from Aprilia when you purchased? If so which ones? I’m going to have to order one which it says I can order accessories with the bike but not sure which would be essential upon purchase, I’m still new to riding.
The bike came with no accessories from Aprilia. I purchased them on my own on aftermarket parts shops. If you are new to riding I would focus more on spending money on good protective gear and maybe some riding classes. But modding the bike is definitely very satisfying and fun. So have fun with your journey ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA I will take your advice brother. That’s what I was leaning toward but needed a second opinion. Eventually I’ll get to that point and start modding. I hope to work on my bike and do most the work myself as I become more experienced with riding in general and with working on the bike. Thank you and you have fun continuing your journey 🤙🏽
I appreciate that brother! ✌️
I love your bike! I am a big fan of the rs 660s but with all of the mods and tunes how fast can it get up to in mph.
Thank you! I have no official measurements to give you actual numbers, but I can tell you that for the size of its engine it does a pretty good job. It can keep up with 600s until it hits 120mph and it does a good job staying behind liter bikes up until 100mph or so. It has plenty of usable power.
i think top speed is in the 140-150 mph ballpark for a stock rs660
Hey man I’m planing to purchase this bike but I’m a little short around 5’5. Do you believe it’s a good enough or should I opt for a smaller bike?
At 5’5 depending on how long your legs are, you wont be able to put both feet down. But if you really want the bike you can just put one leg down. I know its tricky but once you start the bike rolling, height doesn’t matter.
@@ALFAVITAGA thanks for the response. Probably gonna have to get used to 1 foot.
💯✌️
Have you had any issues like oil leaking from your water pump or other issues warranty related
I’ve heard of a few cases of oil pan leaks and water pump leaks but I guess I have been lucky because I had zero issues with mine.
@@ALFAVITAGA I have had my 2022 tuono 660 factory for less then 48 hours / 400 kms and it’s in for warranty work due to leaking oil out the water pump.
And this is like a 30-40% fail issue on this platform. I just hope they fix it properly cause where I live in Canada we get 3-4 months of riding season and that’s it.
I’m honestly not impressed at all, it’s a nice bike and was fun for the few hours I had on it. But this is fucking bull shit if you ask me. A Japanese bike wouldn’t have these same issues at this high of a fail rate.
Nice… but crzy.
💯
is it worth it tho ? can u sell it for similar price ?
By definition, most modifications are not really worth it financially and you lose more than 50% of the value of modifications if not more during resale. But we don’t mod our bikes because its worth it financially. We mod them because the process gives us satisfaction.
@@ALFAVITAGA thats true, i did only few mods so far on my rs660 and it is indeed satisfying. i never thought to go so far with it tho...but you never know.
@@BrateX98 💯✌️
Could you include a link for your rear seat camera mount? Thanks!
Here you go! a.co/d/aeQAzzs

@@JohnnyXie527 I mounted a Gopro. For the insta360 I prefer the selfie stick.
@@ALFAVITAGA I have almost the same set up as yours but I can’t find a place to mount a selfie stick since I had passenger steps removed.
@@JohnnyXie527 I will make a video on how to mount the perfect insta360 angle. It l’s the same on the RS660 and RSV4.
Boy! You Got Everything But the Super Light Weight Racing Wheels! OH, and some Olens or racing shocks would be nice as well... #PerfomanceFirst
Yes, this thing with Ohlins and forged wheels will be a different game ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA Carbon fiber... It's about the Weight! Spinning Mass reduction = Performance...
@@WaltDesine Carbon fiber wheels are a bit lighter than magnesium or forged aluminum but I don’t trust carbon fiber wheels for the road. Very unpredictable. There is a reason motogp does not use carbon fiber wheels. If that wheel cracks you are done, and there is no warning. But unsprung weight is where all the weight reduction shines!
Hey man, i know you sold your RS660 but still: what kinda lever guards are those? I kinda missed that 🥲
Just these plain cheap ones from Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B09FWWFJK2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
@@ALFAVITAGA oh i completely overlooked your comment with the additional info 😂 sorry! Thank you!
😛✌️
Damn I hate that you put the price of everything. 😂 I've done a lot of similar mods to my Tuono 660 Factory and it made me start tallying it up. Only significant difference is I haven't done rearsets, sliders, and some of the aesthetic choices, and I am replacing the steering stem (waiting on the stock RS 660 stem) and top triple (same woodcraft triple) so I can swap from a handlebar to clip-ons. Don't remind me of the money... Lol
Lol yes it hurts to see the $$$ 😛✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA What's the your most loved tool that you've acquired working on your bike? I do all my own work too. Picked up an Abba Sky Lift recently and it's a total game changer.
@@JoshPhillips7781 Oh boy.. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on tools. Im a tool addict. The thing I appreciate the most in mechanics is speed and efficiency. For that reason, my number one favorite tool is my 1/2 inch impact wrench. I don’t use it often but when I need it, its a lifesaver. Not only because of speed, but because my worst fear is stripped bolts and I hate them. With my impact wrench, any stripped or ceased bolt comes out like butter. Of course my most used tool is my favorite stubby ratchet. But if I had a lift, that would be up there on my top list. My back and knees would thank me for it lol.
Awesome bike! May I know which brand it is for the mirrors?
Rizoma Stealth Mirrors. I have a link for them in the description part number 35.
@@ALFAVITAGA Thanks mate 🙏🏽
啥时候改款了，变化好大
This is a 2021 RS660. The model did not change. It still comes the same up to the current 2023. I just modified it.
Have you thought of getting Öhlins suspension..?
Ohlins and other aftermarket suspension transforms the handling performance of the bike. But the truth is that not everyone “needs” an upgrade. The front stock suspension of the RS660 is pretty good to the point that most wont outperform it. The rear suspension is a bit of a discussion. If you weight below 190lbs with gear, then the spring rate will do just fine. The rebound oil is weak, that would give you about 6000 miles of use before it needs to be replaced. I never felt the “need” to replace the suspension until I started pushing my limits on the track. So yes, I have thought about replacing the suspension.
@@ALFAVITAGA thank you for the detailed reply. I have an Aprilia Extrema 2023 but I am feeling the front suspension is a bit soft especially when using the front brake suddenly or when on the corner and want to slow down, it scares the hell out of me. I talked to the dealer and ask them to adjust the suspension for me, I want it a bit harder. I am only 140 lbs so I did not feel an issue with the rear shock. I have seen the Aprilia user manual about how to adjust the suspension but did not know how to do that. I searched your videos but also you did not upload such a video. Even Dave Moss videos don’t show exactly what you need to do. So I would kindly request you to create such a video and show us how to do the adjustment exactly. I am following your channel from Germany and really like the content you share, no one else is sharing the same detailed instructions that you do…..thumps up to you👍👍
Thank you I appreciate that! I’m actually planning on doing a full “how to” setup the RS660 suspension. I had Dave Moss work on my bike and adjust it. I learn a lot from Dave. Stay tuned ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA that’s a very good news. Please include all the detailed steps from scratch, this would be the first detailed video on youtube. I am so exited to see your video….😎
Thanks mate, I really appreciate it…💐
@@mohammedal-ahdal9683 💯✌️👌
You have really good taste sir, I gotta admit.
I appreciate it! ✌️
Pls make a video with new suspension installation. That would be great.
Also, a cover for the frame would make ur bike much more beatiful than it already is.
I will look into it ✌️ Definitely a frame cover would elevate the look!!
Bro let’s ride!!
Love what you did to this bike so far I'm trying to find carbon tank cover only not the actual carbon tank that you want but so far no luck if you know any place or find one please let me know in comments and again really clean looking bike. oh almost forgot the suggestion for your front wheel bro just powder coat it matching the real wheel.
Thank you! If I find a carbon cover Ill let you know. The cost to powder coat the front wheel is the same as a brand new OEM black wheel where I am, so I’d go for the black OEM wheel. ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA Thanks for looking out brother and yea of course if the cost to powder coat is same as new wheel go for it for sure you will have one extra wheel as well lol
Hi. Do the lever guard reduce vibration like the stock ones ?
They offer the same anti-vibration as the stock do.
@@ALFAVITAGA ok thats great. Thank you.
Clean bike but I wonder if you know where I could buy a black front wheel?
@@rhino2703 what do you mean
@@colin.six60 I'm sorry that wasn't meant for you you. I clicked the wrong comment
@@rhino2703 ah okay. No problem mate

What year is your RS660? I just bought a used 2022 a few days ago. Getting alot of inspiration for mods from you already
2021. My personal favorite mod is the triple clamp with clip ons, as I prefer a lower proper racing position. ✌️
@@ALFAVITAGA i was actually about the comment on your install video on that. So stock, the RS660 doesnt have the greatest turn radius, does lowering the position of the grips have any interference with any of the fairings? like will the controls hit anything? or does it not sit as low as alot of aggressive super sports?
@@vincentmamotos9937 As long as you do the Bonamici clip ons that have a bit of a raise, it will clear the fairings. If you go with zero raise clip ons like the Spider clip ons that the Trofeo has, it will not clear the stock fairings. The Spider clip ons are meant for track fairings not street fairings. But the turn radius is not affected by the aftermarket clip ons. The turn radius of the RS660 is actually very good compared to other sports bikes.
@@ALFAVITAGA good to know. Im slowly gonna build up to this build for sure. Ill hold off on alot of things obviously but protection will come 1st. Then exhaust and tune. Just got the bike and riding season is nearing its end so ill have some time to save for next season. Also good to know. I didnt know which aftermarket clip on the trofeo has. I just know that it sits lower. You should make a video series for "good budget alternatives" to your bike build.
@@vincentmamotos9937 I have something similar in mind to make a video on. As obviously not every upgrade is necessary. Maybe an overall review on the bike and upgrades. ✌️
Made a beautiful bike absolutely stunning 😍
Thank you! ✌️
what a beauty is that?! I love it! Thanks for inspire me
Thank you my friend!
Love it! Now I have to get one at least the standard edition for a start!
For me the 2023 Racing Black is the best option right now for the RS660 ✌️
what stand are you using? I just got spools for the rear and my stand isn't wide enough to lift by them -_-
The one I got is from Pit bull stands. The height and width is adjustable.
@@ALFAVITAGA gotcha, mine is too but with the hook ends on the inside it's not wide enough and the other way the rubber blocks get in the way lol. I'll look into the pitbull ones
@@jpbastyr trackside front & rear works well for my 2022 Aprilia RS660.
Also on team Pitbull. TBH the only stands I trust my bike to are Pitbull, Woodcraft, and Abba. Pricey, but will all last a lifetime and rock solid.
@@ALFAVITAGA 3 months later i'm getting a pitbull one haha, just sold my old shitty one. love the videos and this bike
my favourite youtuber thnx mike go on 💪
Thank you brother! ✌️
Just Class Man,Please start her
👌✌️
What color did you order from S2 and did you order it from them directly? Awesome channel!
Thank you! Yes directly from them and ordered the NOIR MAT.
@@ALFAVITAGA Thanks for the quick reply.
I have another question for you lol. I just got a 2023 Racing Black RS660 and currently it doesn’t seem to have a cowl. Is the Aprilia cowl you have a flat black or more the color of your RS660 with a little flake? Thanks again for your help.
My cowl matches the color of the bike exactly. Its the Apex Black. Its more like charcoal black rather than flat black. I don’t remember what the 2023 black looks like in person, but currently the only black rear cowl on market is this Part Number CM325202. You can always install the rear cowl from the RSV4 that comes shiny black with a red line if that black matches better.
@@ALFAVITAGA that’s what I was thinking. Thanks again for answering questions. You’re a top notch man.
Did you remove the part that extends over the chain of the plastic piece on the left side of the swingarm?
Yes, thats something I forgot to mention. I used an angle grinder and I cut it off.
@@ALFAVITAGA Looks super clean! Makes me think I should grab an angle grinder to mine 🤔
@@Tehepixwinner If you still have the stock chain on, make sure you clean off all the stock lube that Aprilia uses, before you cut the chain guard off. That stock lube is like glue and without the chain guard it will go all over your bike and tire. You also need to make sure to use chain lube that doesn’t splatter much and don’t overlube the chain. It looks so much better without the chain guard but it takes a couple minutes of extra effort to ensure no lube will splatter on your tire.
Thanks for the great video. I’m going to be modifying my chain guard after seeing how much cleaner that makes the bike look. I also have the spider gas cap and the twist off part has turned from black to gold like your your triple clamp did. I was thinking it had more to do with wear but now I’m not sure.
@@untamedride Thank you! I’m not sure that the gas cap lid turning gold is normal. Its painted with a clear coat and it shouldn’t be affected by the sun. It must be another reason that I’m almost positive is not normal.
Nice video man. I like it
Thank you ✌️
Gorgeous piece mate👌
