Video: Aprilia USA in Space Shuttle tribute

By MCN

Aprilia’s USA division has released the following tribute to the now decommissioned space shuttle program. It’s essentially an RSV4 advert, but with enough heart-stopping shots of 81 million horsepower rockets to justify the association.

The Aprilia team says: “Crossing performance boundaries never thought possible and forging new frontiers in innovation… making and racing motorcycles wouldn’t be entirely alien to the people that created a bridge between earth and space.”

Whether there’s room in Aprilia’s R&D department for any ex-NASA engineers remains to be seen.
