Aprilia Mana 850GT



A completely new approach to motorcycling, a new way to ride a bike. This is the Mana 850, the bike that has taken the world by storm, the result of Aprilia's futuristic technological competence and our courage to believe in innovation. Sequential/automatic transmission, radial brake calipers, helmet compartment, upside down forks. The Aprilia Mana combines the best of the biking world, also that of the sports bike, with a matchless functional character. A real one-of-a-kind in the motorcycling world, which couldn't remain the only one of its kind for long. Aprilia is proud to announce the launch of the Mana 850 GT, a bike that increases the range of use of the versatile Aprilia Mana.



The Mana 850 GT follows the evolution of a market which becomes more and more demanding by the minute, with new requirements in terms of mobility dictating the need for means of transport able to meet these requirements, and also make daily use and long trips as pleasurable as possible.



The Mana 850 GT is designed to do just this: with an elegant half-fairing perfectly integrated in the lines of the bike to protect the rider and passenger on long journeys making the bike ideal for tourism. The adjustable windshield lets you adjust the level of protection to suit your own particular needs.



Features of the Aprilia Mana 850 GT in greater detail:

" half-fairing with adjustable windshield;
" 90° V twin engine with four valves per cylinder, Euro 3 homologated;
" sportgear transmission: electronically controlled sequential gearshift offering two shift modes: seven speed manual or Autodrive with three mappings: Touring, Sport, and Rain;
" storage compartment with non-scratch lining, large enough for a full-face helmet, with mobile phone holder, toolkit & document holder, and 12V power socket ;
" under-seat fuel tank;
" brakes with radial calipers;
" 43 mm upside down fork;
" offset monoshock with spring preload and rebound adjustments;
" steel trellis frame with single piece aluminium swingarm;
" electronic fuel injection with single throttle body;
" latest generation two channel ABS system.


Thanks to these characteristics, the Mana 850 GT is the most functional and complete bike on the market.

The half-fairing, in fact, makes the Mana 850 GT unique, and lets you get the very best out of the dynamic qualities of the V2 850 engine with Sportgear transmission. A two-cylinder engine producing 76 HP with a very flat torque curve giving you excellent performance both in acceleration and at speed, the perfect match for the on-the-road tourism soul of the Mana 850 GT.
