Mana from Aprilia

The machine claims a seven-speed push button shifter along with the alternative engine management maps - all available from the handlebars.

Sadly there's no info yet on when or even if we can expect to see this one on the road.

The company also flagged its launch into superbike racing, with the unveiling of a new 65-degree V-four engine, which claims 210 horses in a very compact package.

Of more immediate interest to fans of the marque is the announcement of a 139-horse version of the Tuono R, which is pencilled in for release over the next few months.
