The Ride-by-Wire system offers three engine mappings—Sport, Race, and Track—enabling riders to tailor the motorcycle’s performance to their riding style and environment. With its aluminum dual beam frame and premium Sachs suspension, the RSV4 RR provides remarkable stability and feedback, ensuring a connected experience between rider and machine. The Brembo braking system, with its double disc front setup and cornering ABS, guarantees stopping power that is as fierce as the acceleration.
