I went from a Ducati Panigale V4S to an Aprilia RSV4 Factory a couple of months ago along with going from a Moto Guzzi V100 to an Aprilia Extrema......I'm in love with these machines. The Factory is a real fun raw racing machine and the Extrema is a very comfortable sportsbike when you don't want to get too crazy. I highly recommend these machines.
Aprilia makes amazing machines! Congratulations! Your review makes me regret parting with my RSV4. The Harly is great, but the Aprilia RSV4 was incredible! Never drive faster than your guardian angels can fly!
this is the bike I want to get down the line once i decide to upgrade from my cbr500r. Just watched this entire review, which was incredible btw, and it really put the nail in the coffin, the RS 660 Extrema will be my next bike
I’m riding a Daytona 675r, I’m not a fan of these new sports/touring type bikes compared to supersports but that Extrema is a really good looking bike 🥵
@guzziman I would say it’s worse then the MT. On the hwy passing semi’s the heavier the bike the better it is. But it’s not bad on the Aprilia you just feel it a little bit. On the MT 09 you hardly feel anything.
Do you have a video comparing the rs with all the other 600-700 bikes? Would love to see a comparison before picking one. I’m considering between this, the cbr, and the r9. The gsxrs are good too but dislike the lack of features.
I’ve got another video coming on the RS 660. But I really like the new redesign of the RS 660 for 2025. Also the new Yamaha R9 for 2025 is going to be awesome!! TFTC! ✌🏾
Rs660 extrema vs R9 vs CBR600rr which one you choosing for middleweight bike and why. Considering you are aiming for a liter bike in the future (and love all of them so not knowing which one to get when you will).
Does autoblip mean that you don’t have to shift down manually when braking and that the bike senses the speed reduction and then down shifts on its own to the appropriate gear. Or can someone help me understand what the autoblip is exactly.
Auto blip means your bike automatically revs higher a split second before your clutch engages so your back wheels don’t lockup or chatter because of engine rev / gear mismatch. Basically provides smooth down shift… the opposite happens when you upshift without clutch, your bike electronics kills the engine a split second before upshift for smooth shift … but must be in the higher revs for it to work properly
Just an FYI, the exhaust on the extrema is not stock. It's the same SC projects aftermarket exhaust one would buy at any store. The baffle was installed on the bike you rode. I have the Stars and Stripes edition and paid $2K for the same titanium exhaust. It's a great bike. Nice vid.
@flightmedic68wf I like the bike but the exhaust on the Extreme is not loud enough. It is not the same exhaust that you buy off the shelf at the store. You can’t simply remove the baffle. You have to do some work and cut it out. TFTC!!!✌🏾
Uh yeah, I’m a Kawasaki fan boy! But the reason I’m saying King of the 600cc class motorcycles is because of everything the Aprilia RS 660 offers compared to the others. Stay tuned I have a video coming to explain this. TFTC!✌🏾
The ZX6R and CBR 600 RR are a bit faster (but not as much as you imagine looking at the numbers). Those 2 are superior for track use but in the streets and twisties I wouldn't be surprised if the average rider is faster with the Aprilia as the power delivery is more forgiving and the setup it comes with is really really good, it's also 18 kg lighter than the Kawa

Yes it’s a nice bike. Wait before you buy. Video coming soon I’ll explain. TFTC!!✌🏾
@@Sytyvette1Have you ridden the other Aprilia 660 ? The difference? Cost, power?
I’m riding a Daytona 675r, I’m not a fan of these new sports/touring type bikes compared to supersports but that Extrema is a really good looking bike 🥵
10/4, I love the Extrema. It sticks to the road in the corners. 👍🏾
Picked mine up in June and it is an ABSOLUTE BLAST to ride !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome!!!!!👍🏾✌🏾
@Sytyvette1 F☆CK YEA it's SO easy and fun to ride. Non stop shit eating grin🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Sytyvette1The difference is carbon fiber and exhaust?
@ShartintRump Yes, mechanical that’s really it. Paint, and option for JP shift. Save yourself the extra money and get the regular RS 660.
I’m already driving a 1000cc bike an MT-10 SP. When I saw this beauty at the showroom though I could not resist. 😂 I’m hoping to get it this week!
Lol!! Yes it really is an amazing bike! Wait until you’re able to put it in curb or the twisties. It’s amazing!!
I bought mine before two weeks and can't wait to drive it home from the shop.🥳😎
Nice! Spoiler alert! Your drive home is going to be awesome!! Mo Power!!!TFTC!!✌🏾
Great video and review.... wonder how are the cross winds, this being such a light bike? blowing you out in the lane at all ?
Yes you do get blown around on the highway a little bit. Not too bad though. 👍🏾
@@Sytyvette1 Would you say it is better or worst than on the mT 09 ?
@guzziman I would say it’s worse then the MT. On the hwy passing semi’s the heavier the bike the better it is. But it’s not bad on the Aprilia you just feel it a little bit. On the MT 09 you hardly feel anything.
@@Sytyvette1 Thanks for the info, love your content...
@guzziman You’re welcome. Thanks!

The pink really pops 😂
I love my Rs 660
Meeeee toooo!!👍🏾
Rs660 extrema vs R9 vs CBR600rr which one you choosing for middleweight bike and why. Considering you are aiming for a liter bike in the future (and love all of them so not knowing which one to get when you will).
I picked up a RS660 yesterday!
Does autoblip mean that you don’t have to shift down manually when braking and that the bike senses the speed reduction and then down shifts on its own to the appropriate gear. Or can someone help me understand what the autoblip is exactly.
No autoblip means when you downshift without using the clutch lever. It automatically revs the engine rpm’s for a smoother downshift.
@@Sytyvette1 ohh okay, I was confused because my bike doesn’t have this feature and I’m pretty new to riding. Thank you for the information
No worries, by the way what bike do you have?
Auto blip means your bike automatically revs higher a split second before your clutch engages so your back wheels don’t lockup or chatter because of engine rev / gear mismatch. Basically provides smooth down shift… the opposite happens when you upshift without clutch, your bike electronics kills the engine a split second before upshift for smooth shift … but must be in the higher revs for it to work properly
talked all that and it sound horrible the way he rode it 😂
TFTC!!!

The 600 king 😂 never heard about a zx6r ?..
Uh yeah, I’m a Kawasaki fan boy! But the reason I’m saying King of the 600cc class motorcycles is because of everything the Aprilia RS 660 offers compared to the others. Stay tuned I have a video coming to explain this. TFTC!✌🏾
@@Sytyvette1 ya corner abs, electronics and shifter is a wow on the aprilia
@Stephan77645 yes sir!👍🏾

@hyper_channel Yes, they are fast bikes. But like I said before I believe with everything that the Aprilia RS 660 offers it’s a better 600. TFTC!! ✌🏾
I have the Same one and is Beautiful and Amazing riding ❤❤❤
IKR! Amazing!! Mid corner grip is insane! Thanks for the comment!✌🏾
