Aprilia offers two models of the bike: the RSV4 Factory and RSV4 R.[3] For 2016 it is offered in two models the RSV4 RR and the limited-edition RSV4 RF.

Production of the motorcycle began in 2008.[4] The motorcycle was unveiled on 22 February 2008, at the International Piaggio Group Convention in Milan, Italy. It is powered by a 65-degree 999.6 cc (61 cu in) V-4 engine, the company's first production four-cylinder engine.[5] Aprilia claims that the new engine was designed specifically for superbike racing and that the engine will produce over 200 horsepower (150 kW) in race configuration.
Aprilia launched the bike to race in the 2009 Superbike World Championship season.[4]
