The RS 660 is a middleweight supersport, a fully faired sportbike, and is pegged as a road-friendly machine which is more than capable of scorching racetracks as well.

The Aprilia RS 660 also gets a comprehensive electronics package which includes a 6-axis IMU with three-level cornering ABS, adjustable wheelie control, traction control, and engine brake control. The motorcycle also gets cruise control and five riding modes - Commute, Dynamic, Individual, Challenge and Time Attack. A TFT screen offers access to all controls on the bike.

The bike used cast aluminium wheels wrapped in Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa tyres.
