At the heart of the 2011 Aprilia Dorsoduro 750 Factory super motard motorcycle, Aprilia utilizes a 749.9 cc (45.8 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 90.3 HP (65.9 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 82 Nm (60.5 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 120.4 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Dorsoduro 750 Factory measures 185 kg (408 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.49 HP/kg (2.05 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 870 mm (34.3 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,505 mm (59.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12-liter (3.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
