The biggest step up from the previous versions of the Aprilia RXV 550 machine is the electronic engine management system. This nifty off-road beast is now offered with two mappings which allow riders to tailor the response of the mill according tho their skill and to the riding scenario.
 
The Soft mapping offers a more gradual power delivery for bike core control over challenging surfaces. The Hard one is a full-power, savage explosion of thrust at the riders' disposal, excellent for skilled off-roaders and racers.

[[File:aprilia-rxv-550-2009-2009-0.jpg|600px|2009 Aprilia RXV 550]]
 
A half-liter (and more) machine for off-road fun, the 2008 RXV 550 is the bigger ans more powerful sibling of the RXV 450. This machines retains the full savage character of the 450 version, but adds even more grunt to the off-road game.
