So, from a first look, there isn’t actually a whole load of difference in terms of huge changes. Of course, there are some obvious things such as the exhausts, the aero and the tail unit, but largely the bike is quite similar to the 2021 machine. But in reality, it’s not the case. A lot of things were updated for 2022. A new engine, new chassis, updated swingarm, new aero, new air intake, new fairings, new exhausts, new fuel tank cover. Almost everything received minor tweaks. After a few years of developing and understanding this configuration of motorcycle, Aprilia are really starting to get into the finer details and into the evolution stage rather than revolution like they were just a few seasons ago. And from what we’ve seen so far in 2022, they’re doing a mighty job of it.
