Harking back to the days of the legendary RS250 is the 2024 Aprilia RS457 sportsbike, joining the middleweight RS660. Bridging the gap between its 125 race bikes from a decade ago to the RS660 of today, the RS457 is aimed at younger riders who want to start riding sportsbikes.

Power for the RS457 comes from a liquid-cooled, parallel-twin mill with DOHC and four-valves per cylinder. The RS457 gets 46.9 hp which, coupled with its claimed 175 kg wet weight (159 kg dry), gives it a power-to-weight ratio that Aprilia says is unmatched in its class.

Suspen for the RS457 is down with upside-down forks in front, adjustable for preload and giving 120 mm of travel. At the rear, a preload-adjustable monoshock allows for 130 mm of suspension travel.

Braking is done by Bybre, the Brembo house brand, with a radial-mount four-piston calliper acting on a 320 mm diameter disc with a single 220 mm disc at the back clamped by a Bybre single-piston calliper. ABS braking is standard equipment, switchable between two-channel or single-channel acting on the front wheel only.

Three riding modes control power and torque for the RS457 while three-level traction control can also be disabled for race track use. Ride-by-wire is utilised for precision control of the RS457 and a quickshifter is available as an extra cost accessory.
