Aprilia Dorsoduro 750, 2009
The APRILIA DORSODURO 750
Developed in close collaboration with Aprilia Racing (the department of Aprilia responsible for thirty-seven world titles), the Dorsoduro 750 combines the best technology from the worlds of supersports and racing supermotards. The result is a distillation of performance and technology, a special, extreme, and elite motorcycle that is capable of elevating its rider to motorcycling excellence.
The lightweight, agile, and powerful Dorsoduro 750 is driven by a new generation of engine incorporating the most advanced technical solutions found on any bike of its kind. Thanks to advanced electronic engine management, Aprilia's compact 90° V twin delivers superb performance, well beyond the reach of its rivals. Specific power is 122.6 HP/litre and maximum torque is 82 Nm at only 4,500 rpm.
The features of the Aprilia Dorsoduro 750 in greater detail:
" 90° V twin engine with four-valve heads, double overhead cam and liquid cooling;
" tri-Map second generation ride-by-wire technology;
" electronic fuel injection with the latest generation injectors;
" mixed gear and chain timing drive;
" modular steel trellis and aluminium alloy frame for extremely light weight and high torsional rigidity;
" aluminium alloy swingarm with laterally offset monoshock;
" fully adjustable 43 mm upside down fork;
" radial front brake calipers combined with 320 mm wave discs
" also available in a restricted 25 kW version
" latest generation Continental two channel ABS
The DESIGN: CONCEIVED TO THRILL
The minimal and aggressive bodywork of the Aprilia Dorsoduro 750 adds the perfect finishing touches to the advanced motorcycle technology that forms the basis of its design. The Dorsoduro 750 is built around the rider. That is why, on this radical, daring and sporting machine everything contributes effectively to maximum riding pleasure. Plastic body panels have been reduced to a minimum for this very reason. As with top competition machines, anything that does not improve performance has been eliminated. Only the place for a number has been left to emphasis the bike's close ties with the world of racing.
COMPONENTS
Supermotards are always no-frills machines, and sometimes quite spartan. This, however, does not mean having to do without top quality components and attention to detail. Here too Aprilia stands apart from the competition by adopting a level of equipment worthy of a true market leader:
" Matrix instrumentation. The mixed analog/digital instrument cluster receives data over a CAN line and incorporates a memory that forms an integral part of the diagnostics system. The ultra-compact instruments feature a modern design and are extremely light in weight. All functions can be accessed and controlled from the handlebars. The LED backlighting is white in the analog area and red in the digital area, and can be adjusted to three levels of brightness;
" Dual taper anodised aluminium handlebars exactly like those fitted to Aprilia's racing supermotards. This super-lightweight component is specially designed for optimum dynamic control;
" Hydraulically operated clutch for a consistently precise action and exceptional smoothness. The clutch is also self-adjusting and completely maintenance free.
