About the Aprilia Caponord 1200

Powered by a liquid cooled 1,197.00cc  V-Twin engine, producing 123.4bhp.

There is also an optional Travel Pack, which comes with Cruise control, panniers, centre stand and ADD semi-active suspension but 14kg heavier.

Aprilia released the 2015 Caponord 1200 Rally with off-road focused spoked wheels, a larger 19" front wheel, two 33 litre Aluminium coated panniers, electronically adjustable suspension, cruise control, multimedia platform, a few engine tweaks, LED fog lights and engine guard/belly pan.
