Boas malta! Ando há bastante tempo à procura de uma Aprilia RS660 versão 35kW e até agora não tenho encontrado nenhuma disponível, nem nova nem usada.

A ideia inicialmente era comprar nova, mas pelo que me foi dito ainda vai demorar alguns meses até voltarem a aparecer. Como quero mesmo passar para este segmento (desportivas) decidi então tentar também por aqui.

Alguém tem uma RS660 35kW que esteja disposto a vender, ou eventualmente aceitar como retoma uma MT-09 SP 2025 35 kW full extras (a minha mota atual)?

Se alguém souber de alguma ou conhecer alguém que tenha uma, agradecia o contacto.

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone else is having trouble finding new Aprilia RS660 35kW models for sale? I’ve been searching around dealerships (Portugal) and online listings, but availability seems really limited atm.

Is this just a local issue or are others experiencing the same thing? Any insight on delays or where to look would be appreciated.

Hey everyone,

I currently ride a 2025 Yamaha MT-09 SP and honestly, I absolutely love the bike. It’s an amazing machine — super fun, comfortable, and great all around.

That said, I’ve been thinking about getting into the sportbike world.

My riding is a mix of a lot of highway and also a fair amount of twisty coastal/mountain roads.

I enjoy pushing a bit in the corners, and lately I’ve been considering eventually doing some trackdays as well.

Because of that, I’ve been looking at the Aprilia RS 660 (either the standard or the Factory version).

The idea would be to trade in the MT-09 and use the RS 660 as a stepping stone:

- Learn proper sportbike riding

- Start doing trackdays

- Build skills before maybe upgrading to a 1000cc later on

From what I understand, the RS 660 sits in that sweet spot — around 100 hp, lightweight (~183 kg), and packed with electronics, which seems ideal for both road and beginner track use.

My main questions:

- Does this sound like a smart move, or would I miss the MT-09 too much?

- Is the RS 660 a good platform for first trackdays?

- Standard vs Factory — is the upgrade actually worth it?

- How does it handle longer highway rides compared to a naked?

Would really appreciate hearing from people who’ve made a similar switch or have experience with the RS 660.
