2007 Aprilia
SXV 550
MSRP $8,699
As part of standard SM fare, the wheels have been changed to 17-inch rims to better suit the asphalt. Michelin knobbies have been ditched for a set of Dunlop Sportmax D208 meats, a 120/70-17 front and 180/55-17 rear. The motors are the same except for the ignition mapping which allows the revs to reach 12,500 rpm from the 450 and 12K from the 5.5, and an increased compression ratio of 13:1 (450) and 12.5:1 (550). Transmission gearing has been lengthened to increase top speed in addition to a rear sprocket smaller by two teeth.

ive bought my sxv 3 months ago in the 1200 km`s that i have ridden , it broke up 3 times the engine cracked the piston got stuck and a valve fell in the cylinder i think they should just make 1 cylinders .... much better than 2 supermoto and offroad = 1 cylinder road bikes = 2 or more
