Aprilia file

For 2015 the road-going Caponord 1200 carried on largely unchanged, while the spoked-wheel Rally joined the range as its off-road-styled sibling. It remained a sport-tourer in adventure clothing, with 17-inch cast wheels, a 125 hp V-twin and a full electronics package of ride-by-wire maps, traction control and ABS. The Travel Pack, the only version sold in the USA, added semi-active Aprilia Dynamic Damping, cruise control, hard panniers and a centre stand.
