APRILIA PEGASO 650 FACTORY
Bringing you the meanest, most thrilling performance around,
the Pegaso Factory is the most sports-oriented of all Pegaso models. The latest
technology and graphics mean that the Pegaso Factory is almost a specialist
supermotard, but with that legendary Pegaso versatility.
As with all Aprilia sports bikes, the word ‘Factory’ has a
precise meaning when used in the context of the Pegaso 650. The Pegaso 650
Factory is the most exclusive and fastest Pegaso ever, featuring a performance
chassis, lighter materials and, of course, the latest Aprilia technology.
Comparisons with the SXV 450, the world’s most exciting
supermotard, are inevitable. The Pegaso Factory incorporates a host of
refinements for even better performance and an even more thrilling ride.
The components that distinguish the Pegaso Factory include:
- Spoked wheels with light alloy rims
- Radial front brake caliper
- Radial front brake master cylinder
- Aluminium, double taper handlebar
- Higher seat for greater control
- Carbon fibre front mudguard
- Carbon fibre side guards
- Carbon fibre exhaust shield
Though the Factory is powered by the same high performance,
650 cc, single cylinder, Euro 3 engine as the Pegaso 650, its lighter
components and more effective chassis make it even easier to ride fast and
aggressively.
These unique characteristics make the Pegaso Factory the
perfect link between specialist and conventional supermotards, and give it the
ability to deliver a truly thrilling, entertaining and satisfying on-road
experience.
The new spoked wheels with gold anodised aluminium alloy
rims are a clear reference to supermotard design. These prestige wheels reduce
inertia and make the Pegaso Factory amazingly light to manoeuvre.
Impressive stopping power is delivered by a top class
braking system. The four-pot radial caliper at the front wheel is complemented
by a radial master cylinder as on the championship winning SXV 450. Top quality
components, of course, do more than just add to the bike’s prestige: they
ensure that performance too is the best you can get. Pace-setting brakes mean
more effective sports riding and greater safety under normal conditions and
around town.
Whether your journey takes you across town or over twisting
mountain roads, the Pegaso Factory will give you the ride of your life. Its 20 mm higher seat transfers
more weight on to the front wheel for a more active ride and greater control
over the front end. The Factory places you in total control under all
conditions, and gives you a feeling of immediate confidence. So if you are
looking for a bike capable of guaranteeing real thrills even on challenging
roads, look no further: the Pegaso Factory is the best road-going single you
can find.
