APRILIAMoto 6.5 1998 - 1999

　　The Aprilia Moto 6.5 was a touring motorcycle made by Aprilia from 1995 to 2002. The bike was introduced in the autumn of 1994 in Bologna and was designed by the French designer Philippe Starck.

　　It was powered by a 650cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine already used on the Aprilia Pegaso 650 travel enduro. The engine had three intake and two exhaust valves, a balancer shaft for less vibrations, and a 16-liter plastic fuel tank.

　　The 1998 model was in its fourth consecutive year of production and came with the same package as previous models, delivering the same visual, technical, and performance specifications without any changes.

　　In the visual department, the bike's curvy lines were complemented by standard fittings, such as a round headlight, a one-piece dual seat, a single exhaust system with the exhaust pipe mounted on the left side, road tires, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　A 41 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork controlled the bike's front end, and a 298 mm brake disc with a four-piston caliper stopped the front wheel from moving. In contrast, the rear end was handled by an adjustable Marzocchi shock absorber and a 220 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper.

　　As for power, the 1998 Aprilia Moto 6.5 had installed a 652cc four-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath its fuel tank, boasting 43 hp at 7,000 rpm and 53 Nm (39 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm.
