2013 Aprilia Caponord 1200 Review

Aprilia Motorcycles
Aprilia motorcycles include the RSV4 Factory sportbike, Tuono 1000R and Shiver 750 streetbikes and Dorsoduro supermotard. Aprilia’s scooter lineup includes the Sportcity 250 and Scarabeo 500ie. Aprilia’s off-road motorcycles include the MXV 4.5 motocross bike and the RXV 4.5 enduro motorcycle.
Aprilia, owned by the Piaggio Group, is one of the world’s largest producers of motorcycles and scooters. Outside of the major Japanese manufacturers, Aprilia offers the most complete range of two-wheeled vehicles anywhere. It all started with a gold and blue 50cc “motobike” completed in 1968. Aprilia has a successful history of racing, most notably after it produced the first RS250 in 1994. Max Biaggi won four straight world championships on Aprilia’s 250 from 1994 through 1997. Beyond road racing Aprilia also built motorcycles for trials competitions (TRX312M, Climber) and long-distance rallies (Tuareg). Today Aprilia motorcycles can be found on racetracks the world over, on-road and off.

2013 Aprilia RSV4 R APRC ABS and RSV4 Factory APRC ABS Review
Aprilia's championship-winning RSV4 models receive a number of updates for 2013, including a boost in power and improvements to the APRC electronics package.
The 10 Hottest Bikes of 2013
This year looks like a particularly exciting time to be a motorcyclist, if for no other reason than the variety of bikes available across every category, including electric! Here then is our list of the top 10 bikes we're eager to ride in 2013.
2012 Aprilia RSV4 Factory APRC Track Review
We've long had an affinity for Aprilia's liter-sized sportbike - the RSV4. Having tested the R version numerous times, we figured it was time to take another look at its more sophisticated sibling - the RSV4 Factory APRC.
Best Motorcycles of 2012
It's again that time of the year when we select Motorcycle.com's Best Of choices - our annual MOBO awards. Surf along as we look back at the standout motorcycles of the past year.
2012 Aprilia SRV 850 Review
Our European correspondent recently had a chance to take Aprlia's maxi scooter, the SRV 850, out for a spin in Porto Ercole, Italy. With a lofty 75 horsepower on tap, the SRV 850 is one powerful scoot and should make its way stateside before year's end.
2012 Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200 Review
The best way to describe the 2012 version of the Dorsoduro 1200 is to call it a lighter, more powerful version of the previous model, only now with improved rider aids.
2012 Aprilia Tuono V4 R Review
One of our favorite sporting nakeds has been Aprilia's Tuono that debuted a decade ago, based on the V-Twin RSV1000. Today, we have its successor, the Aprila Tuono V4R, a naked conversion of the championship-winning RSV4.
2011 Aprilia RS4 125 Review
The all-new Aprilia RS4 is Aprilia's first step away from the 2-strokes that made them famous. The RS125 2-stroke will still be sold (in Europe), but the emergence of this new 4-stroke 125 shows Aprilia's direction for the future.
2011 Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200 Review [Video]
Even though we know better than to ride like morons (usually), certain machines are still able to entice us into riding for the pure joy of being silly. Aprilia's new supermoto-inspired Dorsoduro 1200 is just such a motorcycle.
