1 recall across 2 model years
The Aprilia RSV4 RF has 1 recall covering 2017-2018 model years, where the front brake pads can corrode until the friction material separates from the backing plate, reducing braking force and increasing stopping distances with a corresponding rise in crash risk.
When the friction material detaches, the brake loses its ability to grip the disc effectively, meaning the rider gets significantly less stopping power from the front brake than expected. The front brake does the majority of the braking work on a motorcycle, so this failure can make it difficult to slow or stop in time.
