2007 Aprilia ETV 1000 Caponord Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
At the heart of the 2007 Aprilia ETV 1000 Caponord touring motorcycle, Aprilia features a 998 cc (60.9 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 98 HP (71.5 kW) at 8,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 90 Nm (66.4 lb-ft) at 6,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 98.2 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (6,250 rpm) and peak power (8,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,544 mm (60.8 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 25-liter (6.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
