942 cc displacement, 98 hp, 90 Nm torque and 250/255 mm suspension travel front and rear – these are the ingredients needed to scale the Erzberg in 2009. This year the "iron giant" can be attacked with one of just 75 units of a for this event tailor-made, strictly limited special edition of the 950 Super Enduro R. The most striking element on the 950 Super Enduro R Erzberg Edition is the solely for this motorcycle created Erzberg graphics. But not just the on the spoiler illustrated trail, which has to be raced in the "Iron Road Prologue" at high speed, strikes the observer’s eye at a glance; in case the owner strives for having a lightweight bike, he simply disassembles the standard mufflers and puts the extra-light Acrapovics on, which belong to the Erzberg Edition as well as handguards protecting the hands of the rider or high-quality carbon covers preventing the ignition cap and the clutch cap from being scratched. Adjustable footrests guarantee each rider an ideal position for chasing the leader’s prologue time and an already quite frequently required bar pad provides protection around the triple clamps. In case the knobs of the standard tires had a hard time on the Erzberg, the rider simply mounts the additional pair of Metzeler Enduro 3 tires in order to proceed the ride on this extraordinary and strictly limited KTM bike.

Aprilia has led the field in big singles for years now. The Pegaso 650 was Aprilia’s first ever big bike, and is still one of the best sellers in its class. In fact, the Pegaso has been the reference point for over-600 cc singles ever since its introduction. But Aprilia’s R&D department never rests on its laurels. Determined to stay at the top, Aprilia is proud to present the latest innovative, high-tech Pegaso 650, the bike that sets new standards for big singles. A modern, four-valve, dry sump engine with electronic fuel injection, 44 mm throttle body, ultra-light wheels and sports brakes are just some of its technical features. Small wonder then, that the Pegaso 650 is the pace-setter the others will struggle to beat.
