Bollywood heartthrob John Abraham's love for sports bikes is well known. The actor's garage already features some big names including the legendary Suzuki Hayabusa, 179 HP Yamaha R1 and the monstrous Yamaha VMAX naked bike. While all of them are extremely capable machines, they lack the luster of the World Superbike Championship and Grand Prix winning Aprilia RSV4 factory racer of which the actor is now the proud owner.
Commenting on the occasion, a euphoric John Abraham said, "This is one of my best moments ever. Aprilia RSV4 is a dream bike and I wanted to own one for quite some time. I thank Piaggio for handing me the phenomenal Aprilia RSV4, much sought after by several in the biking circuit!"

Keys to John's new Aprilia RSV4 were handed over to him in a special event held by Piaggio, the owners of the Aprilia brand, in Mumbai. The event was presided by Mr. Ravi Chopra -Chairman and Managing Director, Piaggio Vehicles Private Limited
"We, at Piaggio are glad to offer avid biker John Abraham this experience, which a true biker understands. Aprilia RSV4 has been a revolution on the global motor racing scene, and consistently takes the thrill of riding a notch higher. John Abraham being a bike aficionado himself is our personal favourite and we are happy that he becomes a proud owner of the Aprilia RSV4," Chopra said. The multiple championship winning Aprilia RSV4 factory spec machine is powered by a 1000cc 65 V4 engine that generates 184 HP and 117 Nm of torque. The bike can touch 100km/h in less than 3 seconds and is considered one of the fastest bikes on the planet.
