DESIGN
Dorsoduro 1200 is a radical bike, incredibly agile and sporty. Concessions is no decoration or for anything not directly functional to achieve the overall performance and driving pleasure. Therefore, all body parts are minimized, like a real racing machine, the Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200 removes everything the pilot. No frills, for a motorcycle mechanic who prefers superlative components used and put into the program. All details are kept to a minimum and focuses on pure function, such as hand guards and panel-Motard race number style, which also offers wind protection at higher speeds. These elements are perfectly complemented by the sleek design of the Dorsoduro 1200, with an excellent eye for detail is reflected in features such as two-tone paint on the structure, the color of pollock will be with the rest of the body elements and dual exhaust with black heat shields.
