Built around Aprilia's prototype - concept model motorcycle platform, the 2020 Aprilia RS 660 relies on a 660 cc (40.3 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 100 HP (73 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 151.5 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the RS 660 measures 169 kg (373 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.59 HP/kg (1.69 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,369 mm (53.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry.
