Let us introduce you to the
most Evil Aprilia motorcycle ever created...
the "Clarkie". The Aprilia RSV Tuono "Clarkie" was
built from a standard Tuono that had a wicked interaction with gravity
earlier in the year. Sure the bike could have been fixed back to
stock... but that would be boring. Thus the Tuono Clarkie was born.
Named after the 2000 Aprilia Cup champion and Aprilia Demo Manager,
Aaron Clark, the "Clarkie" features everything he wanted
in the most twisted full-bore project bike Aprilia has ever
had. Aaron ordered a pile of the coolest stuff available from
his friends at European Motorcycle Accessories. A bike capable of
squeezing the rider between the gas cap and the
asphalt called for an all black (very very black) paint scheme
-— so complimenting that scheme, the stock Brembo wheel
and brake package was replaced with black superbike class
PVM wheels, calipers, and rotors. If twisting the planet off it's axis
was the goal, the addition of the
Translogic QS2 Quickshifter makes it happen without clutching.
The "Clarkie" barks through a Harris Performance slip-on, cranking
out 130 horsepower and 80 ft. lbs. of torque to the
rear tire. With the basics taken care of, it was time to control
the evil one and only the best Ohlins shock and steering damper
were up to the task. EMA is proud to sponsor the RSV Tuono "Clarkie"
and help you build your
own bike up to your high standards. EMA distributes only the highest
quality components for your performance motorcycle.
Screw average... let EMA and Aprilia show you the way.
