The Trofeo Aprilia RS 660 returns with an increasingly international flair
THE SIXTH EDITION OF THE SINGLE-MAKE TROPHY DEDICATED TO THE APRILIA RS 660 KICKS OFF ON APRIL 24 AT MISANO
Everything is ready for the Trofeo Aprilia RS 660’s seasonal debut. Organised by BK Corse, the championship will officially get underway during the weekend of April 24th-26th. The first event is at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli.
Now in its sixth edition, the single-make series dedicated to the Aprilia RS 660 features an international field of riders and updated regulations.
Its goal is to reaffirm its position as a benchmark for the growth of emerging talent. Moreover, it offers an excellent technical environment and a high level of competitiveness.
Over the years, the Trophy has established a reputation as a genuine springboard to international competitions, as evidenced by Edoardo Colombi’s career path. After winning the title in 2023, the Italian rider made his debut in the BSB (British Superbike Championship) the following year. He narrowly missed out on the Sportbike title by just 1.5 points. The format adds value for both riders and teams. In fact, the latter have complete autonomy in managing and fine-tuning the RS 660.
The 2026 regulations feature a single category open to Aprilia RS 660 models in Trophy configuration.
Specifically, these bikes are equipped with Öhlins suspension, Brembo brakes with dedicated racing pads, Sprint Filter air filters and SC Project exhausts (both partners of Aprilia Racing in MotoGP). Moreover, they are fitted with a racing electronic control unit (ECU), and a racing control panel by Jet Prime. Furthermore, all Aprilia RS 660s entered in the Trophy will be fitted with Pirelli tyres in SC1 (slick) or SCR1 (rain) compounds.
The Trofeo Aprilia RS 660 will consist of six rounds: five held in conjunction with the Campionato Italiano Velocità (CIV) and one as part of the Alpe Adria International Motorcycle Championship. The last round will take place at the historic Brno Circuit in the Czech Republic. The 2026 calendar is as follows:
- Round 1 – Misano, April 24-26, 2026
- Round 2 – Mugello, May 8-10, 2026 (Double-header)
- Round 3 – Brno, July 10-12, 2026 (Double-header)
- Round 4 – Misano, July 23-26, 2026
- Round 5 – Cremona, September 18-20, 2026
- Round 6 – Vallelunga, October 9-11, 2026 (Double-header)
