The 2017 RSV4 RR is a beautiful new racing motorbike, developed by Italian motorbike company [Aprilia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aprilia-electrica-concept), that is designed to offer improved performance by offering a blend of aggressive horsepower, intelligent design and proactive electronic control.

These racing motorbikes stand out due to the fact that they empower riders to take over control of a wide variety of electronic functions even as they're riding. Riders can switch between eight different traction control, three different [wheelie control modes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/motorcycletraining-gadgets-rawrrs-wheelie-helper-is-the-perfect-practice-to), clutchless downshifting as well as cruise control for off-track riding.

The fact of the matter is that many motorbikes these days are so high-tech that they actually take control away from the rider, but the Aprilia RSV4 RR goes the opposite route by making the rider king, which is how it should be when it comes to high-performance racing motorbikes.
