One key feature this bike has is it has RAM air-intake and NOBODY offers this in this sub 500cc segment. I'm just surprised to see people who post reviews on TH-cam are unaware of it. Also Aprilia didn't advertise it my brother works on the assembly line for this bike that's why I know this.
That is cool but the power gain from ram air follows a square law directly correlated with velocity. The bike tops out at 120mph so the power gain will be negligible. Smart feature though.
@@Mapdigi same here. Matte finish and Indian environments never go hand in hand so this was the only choice I had. Turned out to be a boon because the white shade looks absolutely striking!
This is actually great for markets like India. This is actually Aprilia's first mass produced bike in India. Yes, Aprilia India does mostly 125-150cc sporty scooters with Piaggio engines. This costs significantly less than CBU units and eats up the competition in its segment.
@@jimmysandmanful I don't own one, one of my riding buddy does and it solves the break fade problem pretty much. For some reason Indian units of RS 457 comes with organic pads 😭 and they sell their own racing pads for an eye watering price If you've got EU or American units first check the pads, alternatively putting dot 5.1 brake fluid could do the trick too. From what I heard from my buddy I don't think in daily commuting you'll notice any fade unless you're breaking very aggressively, often. For track or even spirited highway riding you have to change the pads if you've got organic like us in India. Edit: spelling mistakes
Its hard to just really get how nice this bike is in pictures and videos. Go to the dealer and see/sit on one, especially side by side to the Ninja 500. The Ninja feels cheap and pedestrian by comparison. Only thing I want right now is a good tune to get rid of the freaking flat spot in 2nd gear.
Wow thank Yammie for pointing out that on the rear set being curved and being bolted on by with the the swing arm is a sign of being up market, 57 QC paint marks, and cut outs and vents on my CFMoto 450SS. CFMoto is in 5th place in Moto2, and 1st place in Moto3 World championship.
The special bits and incredible style will make this a runaway hit for Aprilia. It's the best small displacement bike since the 660 Aprilia. They are innovating way beyond other marques these days.
Bro you can trust made in India Bikes. In west bikes are for fun and wants. But in india it's a need. It's a necessary item and bikes have to cross high standards ie 'Indian roads' and heavy competition from Indian brands. In past few decades all these reasons forced the motorcycle industry in my country to make reliable and good bikes or otherwise face extinction.
@@airglide2 I get it, but people's demands are different, in west people need as much horse power or speed out of their bike. But in India people say that if this 2000$ bike won't last me atleast 20 years with minimum maintenance then I'm not gonna buy it. Reliable bikes isn't a feature, it's a necessity.
Listening to you saying praise to it after I bought a ninja 500 after listening to you for ages about the 400... This is literally he is just a friend situation... 🙄
You got a good reliable Japanese bike ,I heard of a lot of people have issues with the rs457 , mostly in the electronic and the breaking system, sexy bike, but not worth the gamble
I don’t know if I’m alone in this, but I kinda like that they used different numbers here instead of cookie cutter, “460”. Idk, maybe it’s just me. But my friend is having a lot of fun with the pronunciation: “FO-FIDDY-SEAVEN!”
India is very much capable of making quality motorcycles in a cheap price but i don’t know why they are hesitant to make higher cc bikes. For example tvs apache rr310 is a great example has a fabulous chase and interesting features for much lower price but they are not upgrading its capability i hope they do more like aprilia.
That is because in India bikes are much more than just a big boy toy. They are a necessity much like the West depends on cars a huge portion of the their population depends on bikes for their daily commute due to the very heavy traffic and roads. The fact is that if most raiders were real to themselves and what they really need even here in the USA nobody needs anything beyond 650-660cc in this case.
You will need to replace the default disc pads to a cintered or racing pads for good breaking performance. Default discpads get hot really quick and start to fade really quick.
that rear set, now that you pointed out, looks weird and impossible to find an aftermarket... besides that, one more thing I have against it is the single front disc. that Bribre is not enough. An AL swingarm would also make it more upscale.
My dream bike and the 1st is my birthday. Literally never win anything and would be a life changer. I would daily ride it and send a video each day riding it. Even in the winter.
i just went with the trident 660 for my second beginner bike (from ninja 400) but i also really wanted the 457, just couldnt justify the price. however, that tach lag would get on my NERVES
Never really an Aprilia fan, i barely hear about them, especially here in the Philippines, it sounds like a luxury brand than what most sports bikers would choose to buy.
Greg from Australia, I'm a mature rider and I'm going smaller, I still like to ride fast in the twisties, I have 1981 yamaha RD 350 LC = 142 kg and tuned to about 50 bhp, power without lard, so when I saw the 457 I thought I want one, or a Tuono version, but after a close look I thought would I pay $12500 AUD for a learner bike made in India, I said, self don't be so stupid !!!
Hey Yammy, how much experience do you have with Tesla? I just got ran off the road and I’ve been trying to get a hold of somebody for the last 2 1/2 hours. Maybe you can give me a little help
I don’t know if he mentioned it, but what does he have to say about the tires? I keep hearing that they are sketchy at best. Also if your reading this Yammie, I’m looking forward to your M-109 review!
Honest question… why does everything that’s not a 600 or 1000 get deemed “a beginner bike”. I’ve been riding for quite a while, and a lot of riders I know who ride for years end up going down to a lower displacement bike just as a nicer change to enjoy the riding experience despite the years or decades of riding under their belt
I checked the price in my country [India] after you mentioned the price in USA its about 8k but in India its 5200 dollars us after conversion. And did you have any brake fadding issues as alot of test bikes were having those issues dont know if they fixed it.
Yammie mentioned brake fade in his full-length video yesterday. I believe this is why he mentioned switching the brake pads as a good idea if he was going to keep this bike long-term.
I am planning to get my 1st bike Options are -Rs457 -R3 -Duke 390 Uses are City daily commute Weekend rides and light touring Nice to have are quick shiter
I would go with the Duke cause more confy ,have seen the RS to the dealer and Seems to sporty to me for a Daily riding ,i think the best for Daily riding Is confy ride ,u should at Jump on them at least to see the sitting position and Ur handling .
Does anyone that has the 2025 model know if the mirror vibration issue has been fixed? I really want this bike but some of the complaints may lead me to something else.

There's really nothing game changing here. If anything they're late to the party. The new Ninja 500 and the CFMoto 450SS are already comparable options and cost less.
I have a ninja 500. Two of my best friends have an RS 457 and a Cfmoto 450ss. We all ride each other’s bikes all the time, and all 3 of us agree that the Cfmoto and RS 457 feels as premium as the other, while the Ninja 500 feels a little cheaper. For the price, I think the Cfmoto is the best package out of the three!

I was just at AF1 yesterday, I had to go checkout a Tuono 660. I saw the RS457 as well and, without looking closer, it looks just like the RS660.
This videos concludes, I am happy I bought the ZX4RR instead of the 457.
Which costs double the money?! Of course it's a better bike 😅
@@deepak3267 i think zx4rr is afforable in international market.
Ya u picked a bike not made in India always a huge plus
In what country?
@@IMLiteralInsanity why is that a plus?
Apparently the braking performance is the only downside to the RS457, but can be upgraded using sintered front brake pads
KTM 390s pads are a straight swap with this, use them.

Save money on fuel and you look cool for your wife 😂
Find a gf. Then say u cudnt get a bike so got a gf for fun. Simple 💁🏽
Could you do a video on what you would change if you could for future reference as most mods are still not available for this bike yet
I live my life a quarter turn at a time.
Sat on one at a dealer. Looked and felt nice.
Should’ve talked more about the led display.
If I don't win I at least wanna hear it. Yammie please put a pipe and a tune on this beauty

Have you seen the new tuono?
I'm 6'3 235lb, I feel like the bike may be to small for me?
Looks like it would be perfect for me as a beginner, but size wise, thoughts?
Getting my license ina month, good luck everyone, I’m definitely going for this bike this time around!
I read somewhere that it really doesnt have an twin spar frame and that those are just cover but I may be completely wrong... either way its a looker!
The secret is that it blows up at 10k miles. which isn't really a secret since it's an Italian bike.
Never really an Aprilia fan, i barely hear about them, especially here in the Philippines, it sounds like a luxury brand than what most sports bikers would choose to buy.
