RIDE-BY-WIRE TECHNOLOGY
ADVANCED ELECTRONICS
Aprilia's exclusive ride-by-wire electronic throttle. The
system guarantees exactly the right torque at all times,
when you need to ride smoothly as in town traffic, and
when you can't resist cracking the gas open and letting rip.
Unlike conventional throttle systems Aprilia's ride-by-wire
system controls air flow as well as fuel flow and ignition timing.
Torque is electronically optimised on the basis of the gear
selected, engine speed, throttle twist grip action, and even
RIDE-BY-WIRE
atmospheric temperature and pressure.
The ride-by-wire throttle manages engine torque in real time
so that you always have maximum performance at your
command. Optimised emissions and engine noise are another
important benefit of the system.
TRI-MAP: THREE MAPPINGS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
All you need to do is close the gas and press the button conveniently located
under your right thumb, to choose between the three mappings at your disposal.
You don't even need to stop the bike. The SPORT mapping gives you sparkling
power and masses of torque when you need to feel the adrenaline flow; TOURING
gives you smooth but generous power for a more relaxed ride; and RAIN keeps
you in full control on wet and slipper surfaces. Your new mapping is implemented
as soon as you open the throttle again. Maximum performance and fun has never
been so easy!
