Fullsix Carbon Lower Tank Side Fairings for Aprilia RSV4 / 1100 Factory / R / RR / RF (2009-2020)

Spending long hours in the saddle demands a motorcycle that fits you as well as it performs — and the lower tank area is exactly where rider contact, comfort and confidence converge. Fullsix's lower carbon tank side fairing set for the Aprilia RSV4 R, RR, RF and 1100 Factory (2009-2020) delivers a precise, factory-level fit that settles naturally against your knees and thighs, eliminating the pressure points and rough edges that stock plastic fairings can introduce over distance.

Key Features

• 245 twill-weave 100% carbon fibre construction — autoclaved with no filler fibres for a consistent, motorsport-grade layup throughout
• Exact OEM replacement geometry engineered specifically for the RSV4 platform, giving a plug-and-play installation with no cutting, drilling or adapting required
• Available in gloss or matte finish, so you can match the character of your build — polished road presence or subdued track aggression
• UV-stable clear coat resists yellowing and surface fatigue, keeping the weave looking sharp through seasons of road and track use
• Guards the lower tank flanks against stone chips, fuel spills and abrasion — protecting bodywork that sits closest to the rider's legs
• Includes German ABE road-use approval — no individual registration or type approval visit required; bolt on and ride legally

Comfort, Fit and the Rider's Perspective

The lower tank side panels are the surfaces a rider grips with their knees on every corner entry and braking zone. When they sit flush and true — as Fullsix's direct-replacement pieces are designed to — there is no rocking, no panel gap catching clothing, and no uneven surface transmitting vibration into the inner leg. The 245 twill carbon is inherently stiffer than ABS plastic at the same thickness, which means the panels hold their shape precisely under the sustained knee pressure of motorway riding or long Alpine passes.

The result is a subtly improved ergonomic envelope: the bike feels more composed in the hands because the surfaces you brace against are solid, stable and form-fitted to the RSV4's original dimensions. Whether you are touring through the Dolomites or committing to a track day at Mugello, this confidence in the contact points accumulates into genuine all-day comfort.

Construction and Finish Quality

Fullsix manufactures these panels using autoclave curing under controlled pressure and temperature. This process consolidates the resin matrix fully, eliminating voids and producing a carbon structure that is measurably stronger and lighter than hand-laid alternatives. The 245 twill weave pattern — a 2×2 diagonal matrix — is the same aesthetic used throughout high-end motorsport and gives a deep, three-dimensional appearance beneath the clear coat.

The gloss variant carries a high-polished lacquer that amplifies the weave's visual depth and pairs cleanly with chrome or polished aluminium highlights. The matte finish absorbs light rather than reflecting it, producing the understated, purposeful look favoured on race-prepared machines and current-generation Superbike liveries.

Fitment and Compatibility

These lower tank side panels are designed as a direct replacement for the following models:

• Aprilia RSV4 R — 2009 to 2020
• Aprilia RSV4 RR — 2009 to 2020
• Aprilia RSV4 RF — 2009 to 2020
• Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory — 2009 to 2020

Installation uses the existing OEM mounting points. No additional brackets, modifications or adaptors are needed. German ABE approval is included, confirming road legality without individual registration.
