NEW YORK, NY - December 5, 2009 - Power slides, jumps, wheelies and full throttle straights are all part of supermoto racing, and with five Supermoto World Championships in the record
books, Aprilia is a master at engineering motorcycles that can expertly handle the challenges — and the sport's inherent thrills. Now, with the U.S. debut of the mid-size 2009 SMV 750 Dorsoduro, the Italian
manufacturer offers American riding enthusiasts a lightweight, high-performance 92-hp V-Twin streetbike that combines all the benefits of supermoto styling and riding position with precision handling and race-bred
technology. Just as importantly, the Dorsoduro comes standard with an inordinate amount of pure fun.
Lightweight, agile, and powerful, this new addition to Aprilia's family of sport bikes features the
compact, new-generation 90° V-Twin engine for power that rivals or exceeds that of many larger twins. In addition to massive torque and unique style, the Dorsoduro is blessed with abundant racing technology, from a
second-generation ride-by-wire throttle to an ultra-rigid mixed steel trellis and aluminum frame and competition-caliber brakes with radial calipers. Rough roads or smooth as glass asphalt, the 2009 Aprilia SMV
Dorsoduro begs you to bring it on — and leaves you smiling all the way to the end of the ride.
