Aprilia RS 660 Wins MotoAmerica Twins Cup Race at Mid-Ohio, Extending Lead
The Aprilia RS 660 secured victory in Race 2 of the sixth round of MotoAmerica’s Twins Cup at the Mid‑Ohio circuit. Fifteen‑year‑old American rider Hank Vossberg, racing for Robem Engineering, took pole position, finished third in Race 1 and won Race 2, strengthening the bike’s reputation as a leading twin‑cylinder middleweight sport bike.
Vossberg’s win increased his championship tally to 218 points, giving him a 63‑point advantage over the nearest competitor. The result highlighted the RS 660’s consistency, with five of the model finishing inside the top ten across the weekend. The class also features rivals such as Yamaha’s YZF‑R7 and Suzuki’s GSX‑8R, which continue to challenge Aprilia in the tightly regulated 600‑800 cc twin‑cylinder category.
