DescriptionThe whole story▼
Refined in silver anodised aluminium and engineered in Italy, the LighTech FTEAP002SIL paddock stand bobbins carry the same design heritage as the racing hardware found in the Aprilia World Superbike pit lane. Developed specifically as the companion set for the LighTech chain tensioner TEAP003, these bobbins transform every workshop lift into a precise, damage-free operation — whether you are chasing lap times or simply keeping your RSV4 in perfect condition.
Key Features
- Purpose-designed to work exclusively with the LighTech TEAP003 chain tensioner, ensuring a secure, rattle-free interface every time the rear stand goes under the bike.
- Dramatically faster and safer rear-stand engagement compared to improvised or generic bobbins — critical on a busy paddock or track day grid.
- Protects the swingarm from contact damage caused by stand misalignment or slides, preserving the structural integrity and finish of your chassis.
- Eliminates paint and lacquer transfer from bare metal stand heads — a detail that matters on a machine as visually striking as the RSV4.
- Supplied as a matched left-and-right pair, finished in a clean silver that complements the RSV4's factory and aftermarket colour schemes alike.
- Lightweight, precision-machined construction with the durability expected of a professional-grade Italian accessory brand.
Design, Finish and Heritage
LighTech has been producing CNC-machined chassis accessories for road and race use since the early days of the Superbike World Championship, and the FTEAP002SIL reflects that background. The silver finish is not merely cosmetic — it signals the anodised aluminium construction that resists corrosion, maintains dimensional stability and keeps weight to a minimum. On an Aprilia RSV4, where every visible component carries a statement, these bobbins integrate naturally with the bike's aggressive aesthetic rather than looking like an afterthought.
Performance and Workshop Use
Paddock stand bobbins that do not seat correctly under load are a genuine safety risk. The FTEAP002SIL units locate positively with the TEAP003 tensioner's receiver, giving you a stable, centred lift point with no lateral play. For track-day riders who need to raise the rear quickly between sessions, and for mechanics who lift the bike repeatedly during tyre or chain changes, this speed and confidence is a tangible operational benefit. The bobbins also act as a first line of swingarm protection in the event of a low-speed tip-over, absorbing initial contact and reducing the chance of swingarm damage.
Fitment and Compatibility
These bobbins are designed and confirmed to fit the following Aprilia models:
- Aprilia RSV4 – 2015 to 2020
