LighTech Rearset R – Aprilia RSV4 / RF / RR / 1100 Factory (2017–2026) FTRAP005R

Machined from high-strength aluminium and engineered to the tolerances demanded by serious road and track riding, the LighTech Rearset R (FTRAP005R) is one of the most precisely built rearset systems available for the Aprilia RSV4, RF, RR and 1100 Factory. Every component speaks to LighTech's uncompromising manufacturing standards — this is the hardware that separates a properly set-up superbike from one that merely looks the part.

Key Features

• CNC-machined from high-tensile aluminium throughout — no cast components, no compromise on rigidity or finish quality
• Folding footpegs only (Version R) — maximum ground clearance and the safety margin that aggressive cornering demands
• Ball-bearing gear and brake levers deliver a smooth, notch-free action that holds up across long track sessions and daily road use alike
• Shift and brake pins are adjustable across multiple positions, allowing precise ergonomic tuning to suit individual rider geometry
• Compatible with both standard gear shift and GP/reverse shift — the Reverse Shift Kit (RFTR290) is available separately
• All necessary mounting hardware is included, and individual spare parts can be ordered separately for straightforward long-term servicing

Construction and Material Quality

The FTRAP005R is built the way LighTech builds everything destined for race circuits: from solid billet aluminium, CNC-machined to tight tolerances rather than cast and finished. The result is a rearset that is simultaneously lighter and stiffer than OEM equivalents, with surface finish and dimensional accuracy that reflect a genuine motorsport supply background. The ball-bearing pivot points in both the gear lever and the brake lever eliminate the vague, sticky feel that wears into conventional bush-type pivots over time, maintaining precise, consistent lever action whether the bike is on a warm track or a cold morning commute.

Adjustability and Ergonomics

Rider position has a measurable effect on lap times and fatigue on long road stages alike. The FTRAP005R addresses this with shift and brake pins that index across multiple positions, letting you dial in foot placement without compromise. For riders who prefer GP-shift — first gear up, the rest down — the optional Reverse Shift Kit RFTR290 converts the system cleanly. The folding footpegs of the R version retract on heavy peg contact rather than transferring the load straight to the frame bracket, a practical advantage on track where kerb strikes and lean angle extremes are part of the session.

Fitment and Compatibility

This rearset is a direct-fit replacement for the following Aprilia models:

• Aprilia RSV4 R — 2017 to 2026
• Aprilia RSV4 RF — 2017 to 2026
• Aprilia RSV4 RR — 2017 to 2026
• Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory — 2017 to 2026

All required mounting hardware is supplied in the box. If GP/reverse shift is required, order the Reverse Shift Kit RFTR290 separately alongside this kit.
