MotoGP: Aprilia and Marquez have some Made in Italy in common!

At first glance, they are very normal test photos showing the bike in a non-definitive configuration.
In reality there is an absolutely innovative technical element to start taking into consideration.
In the 2022 season, the SC-Project exhaust for the Aprilia RS-GP22 of Espargaró and Vinales will have Italian technology of the highest level. This is a new valve that chokes the exhaust gases and is managed by the motorcycle’s electronics. These valves are already used in MotoGP but that of SC-Project is done differently.
This valve, made entirely from solid titanium, helps – with the engine brake – to give the rider a particular feeling when entering and mid-corner.
On opening, however, the valve opens completely to give the maximum passage of the exhaust gases.

The collaboration between SC-Project and Aprilia, in fact, should come from over a year of studies through the development of the exhaust for the RS 250 SP, for the RS 660 Trofeo and for the RSV4 of the Nuova M2 racing Team that competes at the CIV, to arrive , in 2021, to the development of the exhaust for the RS-GP 2022.

At first glance we notice that this configuration is slightly different (for obvious technical reasons), from the valve that appeared on Stefan Bradl's , a component marked SC-Project very similar to that of the RS-GP. Will this valve also appear on the exhaust of the Honda of Marc Marquez and Pol Espargarò? Probably yes, we will see it in a few days.
Here is the made in Italy that unites two teams and four completely different riders.
You can see it in the enlarged detail on the bike used today by Lorenzo Savadori, in the tests!

A prima vista sono normalissime foto di test in cui si vede la moto in configurazione non definitiva.
In realtà c’è un elemento tecnico assolutamente innovativo da iniziare a prendere in considerazione.
Nella stagione 2022 lo scarico SC-Project per le Aprilia RS-GP22 di Espargaró e Vinales avrà una tecnologia italiana di altissimo livello. Si tratta di una nuova valvola che parzializza i gas di scarico ed è gestita dall’elettronica della moto. Già le valvole sono utilizzate in MotoGP ma quella di SC-Project è fatta diversamente.
Questa valvola, realizzata in titanio totalmente dal pieno, aiuta – con il freno motore – a dare feeling al pilota in entrata e centro curva.
All’apertura, invece, la valvola si apre totalmente per dare il massimo passaggio dei gas di scarico.

The collaboration between SC-Project and Aprilia, in fact, would stem from more than a year of studies through the development of the exhaust for the RS 250 SP, for the RS 660 Trofeo and for the RSV4s of the Nuova M2 racing Team that compete in the CIV, to arrive, in 2021, at the development of the exhaust for the 2022 RS-GPs.

At first glance we notice that this configuration is slightly different (for obvious technical reasons), from the valve that appeared on Stefan Bradl's bike, an SC-Project branded component very similar to that of the RS-GPs. Will this valve also appear on the exhaust of Marc Marquez and Pol Espargarò's Honda ? Probably yes, we will see in a few days
