The future of motorcycle racing is getting a boost from Aprilia. The Italian brand has unveiled the RS 457 Trophy, a one-make racing series designed to make track competition more accessible for young riders. Slated for a 2025 debut, the Trophy will offer a combination of high-performance machines and reduced costs, creating an ideal launchpad for aspiring racers.

Giving Young Talent a Taste of the Track in 2024

Impatient racing enthusiasts can get a sneak peek at the RS 457 Trophy with two preliminary races scheduled for this year. Organized by Eventi 2 Ruote, these races will be held on September 8th at Cremona (alongside the FMI Cup) and October 6th at Misano (alongside the Italian Cup).

A Gateway to Competitive Riding

The Aprilia RS 457 Trophy is designed to provide a platform for young riders to develop their skills on a high-performance machine. The series will utilize the Aprilia RS 457 motorcycle equipped with a special Racing Kit, offering a blend of power and affordability.

This kit, featuring a full race fairing, SC Project exhaust system, race ECU, and a sprint filter, transforms the RS 457 into a track-ready weapon. The bikes will also sport a striking red and black livery inspired by Aprilia’s MotoGP heritage.

Building on a Strong Foundation

The Aprilia RS 457, unveiled at EICMA 2023, boasts a solid technical base that Aprilia says will make the Racing Kit accessible to a wide range of riders. This focus on affordability aims to ease young talents’ entry into the world of motorcycle racing.

The 2025 Aprilia RS 457 Trophy promises to be an exciting new chapter in motorcycle racing, fostering the next generation of riders while staying true to Aprilia’s tradition of performance and fun.
