APRILIAMoto 6.5 2002 - 2003

　　In 2002, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia Moto 6.5, a unique motorcycle with the same package as the previous model, delivering the same specifications without any significant modifications.

　　The 2003 Aprilia Moto 6.5 was one of the most futuristic machines from the House of Noale up to date, wearing the signature of the renowned French designer Philippe Starck, who also designed the Groningen Museum in the Netherlands and the control tower in Bordeaux's airport.

　　In the visual department, the motorcycle had standard features, such as a round headlight, a one-piece dual seat, a single exhaust system with the exhaust pipe mounted on the left side, and a plate covering the bottom of the engine, road tires, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　It was manufactured around a steel frame and softened by a 41 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable Marzocchi shock absorber on the rear, delivering optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.

　　Braking-wise, the machine's wheels were fitted with a 298 mm brake disc managed by a four-piston caliper on the front and a 220 mm brake disc engaged by a dual-piston caliper on the rear.

　　As for power, the 2002 Aprilia Moto 6.5 took its muscles from a 652cc four-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a 40 mm Mikuni carburetor feeding the piston, delivering an output power of 43 hp at 7,000 rpm and 53 Nm (39 lb-ft) torque at 5,000 rpm.
