From 2010 the RXV 450 settled into its final form, carrying the 2009 fuel-system and chassis changes forward with Marzocchi forks, a Sachs shock and Nissin brakes. The engine offered two switchable maps, and Aprilia quoted a further small weight saving for 2011. With few changes after that, the model stayed in the range until the RXV line was dropped around 2013-14.
