This is actually a gem of a video. I’ve been looking into mods and such for the RS660 for the past few weeks for when I inevitably get the bike, but no one had a solid spreadsheet or listing like you did!
I'm an old fart and am now shopping for my next and probably last bike. I see myself a a 'cruiser dad' but this Aprilia has got me wondering if I can fold myself up enough to ride it all day. Love your mods and love the looks and sounds of this bike. (I love stickers too)
I’ve heard motobox service is terrible from many folks. But I am also unsure if a third party can vouch their engineering improves HP. So MIVV is the only option unless you go 2k on SC project titanium exhaust.
Very tasteful mods.. The yellow dartings are a nice touch. I personally wouldn’t put tinted films on my headlights, though. The bar end mirrors do look nice, but I can’t put myself to have those on my bikes because i need the bar ends clear for my hands.
I've got the same bike in May 2022 col. Lava Red. I adore the bike. It's my first bike ever. I do not regret this choice. I'm getting used to the two wheels world in the best way! looking forward to upgrade in the next two or three years.
@@Cam_WightI started on an rs660 too and it’s been amazing! Buttt if you never touched a clutch before it cannn be a lot but my opinion get a bike you love no reason of getting a bike if you don’t love it
I would change the colour of the front tire orange to black and then colour of the seat to black ( I don’t have or never had ride a bike only scooty ) but my dream bike it is
Thank you for this awesome video ! Actually I'm looking for bar end mirrors and yours look really great, did you have to make modifications to install it or you just put it next to the bar end and put the screw in ?
I’ve been riding from mid-april and still going. Just a couple of days left of this season for me I think, it’s starting to get kinda cold 🥶 (6-12 degrees C)
I used a pvc pipe as a spacer between the OEM barend. Similar to what i dit to my MT09 here: ruclips.net/video/E1ibd8ZI0NE/видео.html Hopefully that helped in some way, if not hit me up at Instagram, and I'll explain it better (hopefully!).
great looking bike! had a testdrive on a rs660 today! really love that bike. but I noticed in the video that you said you had an mt09 before, how come you changed to this bike? curious question as im thinking of getting an mt09 or maybe a rs660 😅. but rumors also says that R9 is gonna be released/announced on this years eicma and on the market next year so I'll see how it ends up but still my question remains :). and also speaking of "tracks" how is this on the track? not that Im a track driver (yet) but would be nice and fun to know . have a great day!
I’ll try to answer the best I can! If you want to have a conversation feel free to DM me on insta! I wanted more of a sporty bike that wasn’t completely “raced out” since i’m doing most of my riding on the road. The bike is fun on tracks, but as I’ve progressed through the (nearly) three years of ownership I’ve swapped the rear shock, and want to upgrade the front suspension. That being said it’s a GREAT all arounder, and definitely more fun on the track than the Mt09. I’ve been following the R9-rumors closely since that’s on the top of my “to get” list as well. I believe we won’t see a 2024 model unfortunately, but what do I know. I hope it will be revealed on EICMA!
What exactky did the front sprocket change did it effect the top speed or anything i dont know anything about these kind of mods would be great if u could elaborate
I could probably do a more in depth video about the specifics, but in theory you get faster acceleration, but the trade off is lower top speed. Also when I cruise on the highway the RPM is higher than what it would be stock, going the same speed. makes the bike way more fun, to sum it up :)
Nice video bro, are you thinking about changing the exhoust? I have no Idea whitch exhoust is the beste (Best sound and good performanc with a god look)
Currently just thinking about it. In Norway (at least) we lose our engine-warranty if I were to swap it with something other than aprilias akrapovic. I have howerver looked at the Mivv and the austin racing ones - seeing that they are both underbelly 😍
@@EV6-Gear Hi, I bought it from a scandinavian called Biltema. Link to the google sheet is in the description - but they dont ship worldwide. I'd recommend going on amazon or ebay. Hit me up at IG if you want to discuss more in detail :)
@@MrDrakenhoff Hi. Thank you for reply, what is I.G. Yes I would like to know more about your mods. I ceramic coated my Acid Gold bike and the very soft red paint on wheels. Very easy to do. Also put Probrake levers and crash protection on as well.
I’d say the rs660 is a lot more precise, so if you’re looking for a better feeling bike and something more sporty, the 660 is great! If you want the 660 because you want a “faster bike”, the 660 is not the next bike to get. Hopefully that was of any use brother :)
how have this guy owned a bike with a stock exhaust for over a year that is the first thing that goes when you buy a bike new and louder exhaust SC Project my favourite
By owning an exhaust I lost the warranty on this bike. Being an Aprilia, the choice was easy for the first two years. Stock exhaust sounded quite good tbh, but nothing like a proper exhaust og course
Mods have new definitions :- Stickers
I'd argue it is. Modifying the bikes look compared to original. Doesn't alter the performance in any way, but is for sure a "mod" in my head.
It is. 100%

All the mods are very nice. Next modification should be the exhaust system for give her a loud voice.
Already on it’s way!
@Phil Heslop I went with the Mivv Underbelly one! really enjoy is, but the motobox def looks "better" imo
I’ve heard motobox service is terrible from many folks. But I am also unsure if a third party can vouch their engineering improves HP. So MIVV is the only option unless you go 2k on SC project titanium exhaust.
1 year later and still the funniest intro I have ever seen in my life.
I busted out laughing at the WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WAHHHHHHHHHHHH

Oh wow you've hit gold on with your first bike! Congrats and remember: rubber side down ;)
Hey man, how’ve you found it starting on the rs660? Do you regret starting on a bigger bike?
@@Cam_WightI started on an rs660 too and it’s been amazing! Buttt if you never touched a clutch before it cannn be a lot but my opinion get a bike you love no reason of getting a bike if you don’t love it
The sticker mod was absolute genius. I have tons of stickers lying around 🤣
I would also add
Shorty levers
Full exhaust system
Ecu flash
Radiator guard
Frame sliders
great job mate! It looks fantastic :)
Hey mate, your video was very helpful, thanks. Greetings from 🇩🇪
You should add a pizza oven under the seat, its stock on the panigale v2 ;)
Haha det der er så sant! Må spise pasta med denne..
Absolutely beautyfull !
I am getting a Aprilia 660 for my first bike. taking my motor cycle class next weekend then buying my bike end of november
Weyyy nice! 😎 you’ll e happy for sure with the rs660
super excited cant wait @@MrDrakenhoff
Evo tech framsliders a must have mod
That’s on my “maybe-list”! For the next season😎
how can we get blueprints to the 3D printed covers to the rear peg covers?
Im planning on getting one of these bikes after winter dont be mad when i copy your style
Oh I absolutely WON'T be mad! I'd actually really like if you sent me a photo if you do.
I would change the colour of the front tire orange to black and then colour of the seat to black ( I don’t have or never had ride a bike only scooty ) but my dream bike it is
Bike looks great!

Kjempe bra jobb med videon! Proff ❤💯👌
Takker ^^
how distorted is the MRA windscreen?
Lmao,
Im crying because of the screaming sounds
Thanks for sharing ❤!
Thank you for watching!

Thank you for this awesome video ! Actually I'm looking for bar end mirrors and yours look really great, did you have to make modifications to install it or you just put it next to the bar end and put the screw in ?
Thank you! No modification needed for the mirror 🤌🤌
@@MrDrakenhoffthanks for your answer
How are the mirrors compared to the stock ones? How is the visibility on the road?
Agree. How did the bar end do on highway speeds? Equally worse or far worse?!? 😂
I have done the same as him regarding the mirrors. They shake a but less than the stock one but you still can't see at higher rpms.
Like it! ❤️
I wonder how much can you use a bike like this up in Norway during the year, for weather and temperatures
I’ve been riding from mid-april and still going. Just a couple of days left of this season for me I think, it’s starting to get kinda cold 🥶 (6-12 degrees C)
Ah i found this channel again
Hol up, you lost me??
Where did you get the screen protector for the dash?
I believe this was from evotech. Just about forst thing i bought
Have you not changed the exhaust to not void warranty? I want to but scared ab the warranty
I’ve got the MIVV underbelly exhaust now! Warranty gone. Bike had never been better hehe
How did you mount the mirrors to your bar ends? Did you purchase specific Bar end pieces? I struggle to finde some.
I used a pvc pipe as a spacer between the OEM barend. Similar to what i dit to my MT09 here:

Why not tuck the license plate under the tail? Are there regulations that prevent that?
There are regulations, but that’s the plan! Waiting for a flip-plate thing from a manufacturer I might work with in the future 🤝
Rapid Bike Race/Evo. Bike will be so much smoother. I have it on my Tuono 660
Interesting! I’ll have to look that up
Any ideas how to lower the bike I have the same one and is to tall lol
I have no idea, sorry. I’d check with your local dealer and see if they have a solution :)
did u have any issues with the enginge ? just asking
I've only had an oil leak due to a bad gasket, but other than than I haven't had any trouble!

Var ikke denne ut på Finn ei lita stund siden? Ble den solgt?
Stemmer det. Det var jeg som luftet den ute i vintermånedene.
@@MrDrakenhoff Kommer den for salg igjen til høsten? :):)
@@oter6678 Det er veldig mulig! ;)
Supergeil 🎉
how much faster does it accelerate now with the new procket?
I'll have to come back to you with specifics, but now I can easily powerwheelie it in 1st gear, something I couldn't do with the stock gearing.
Nice bike
Thank you! 🥰
Okay okay, you're headlights are yellow. Cool mod. How'd you do that?
Custom cut out from some headlight vinyl wrap 😀
@@MrDrakenhoff sick
No performances mods?
Suspension, but other than that it’s all style.
Hi. Subscribed now. Cannit find some of the mods you have on your bike. Yellow film...heel guard.
Great review by the way. Where can I get that shock as cheap as you got it. Thanks.

Does the RS feel as fast as the mt09? Or does the mt09 feel like it's in another realm ?
The 09 definetly have more power down low, and all around I'd say. But the rs660 feels quick as well, just not 'as' quick.
Not comparable bikes, different class
I'm considering trading my MT-07 for an RS660, given you ridden both before, do you think this is the right choice?
I’d say the rs660 is a lot more precise, so if you’re looking for a better feeling bike and something more sporty, the 660 is great! If you want the 660 because you want a “faster bike”, the 660 is not the next bike to get. Hopefully that was of any use brother :)
And then there's the Tuono with same engine if you're into the Hooligan side of things....
Nice videoo

KULT!
the bike desperately need an underbelly pan extender for those who install an aftermarket exhaust...that hole it's just disgusting
I couldn’t agree more! Should come with the exhaust in my opinion ;)
Yellow headlights no good
Not a fan of the yellow accents. Bar end mirrors are useless and look stupid on sport bikes. Sticker bombs is lame and an eyesoar.
Ruined a nice bike
Thank you!
colorway is trash & the sticker bomb is trash.
I will archive this in my photo gallery, thanks for making my day 🥰
