The Aprilia Pegaso 655, introduced in 1997, marked a significant departure from the Italian manufacturer's previous offerings. This trail-oriented motorcycle wasn't a pure off-road machine, but instead a versatile dual-sport bike designed to comfortably handle both paved and unpaved roads. The Pegaso 655's unique selling point was its powerful 650cc single-cylinder engine, a rare choice in this segment, which delivered a surprisingly smooth and responsive power delivery. The engine, derived from the Aprilia Falco, was known for its strong mid-range torque, making it ideal for both highway cruising and technical off-road riding. Beyond the engine, the Pegaso 655 featured a robust steel frame, long-travel suspension, and knobby tires, allowing it to tackle challenging terrain with ease. A comfortable seating position and a relatively lightweight design made it a capable and enjoyable motorcycle for long-distance rides as well. Despite its off-road aspirations, the Pegaso 655 was also a practical and reliable commuter. Its upright riding position and forgiving handling made it easy to navigate city traffic, while its fuel efficiency allowed for extended trips without frequent refueling. The Pegaso 655's distinctive design, featuring a sleek, modern aesthetic with a large fuel tank and high-mounted exhaust, contributed to its popularity among both experienced riders and those seeking a versatile and capable motorcycle for everyday use. The combination of off-road capability, comfortable riding characteristics, and a powerful engine made the Aprilia Pegaso 655 a unique and desirable machine in its time. It's a motorcycle that continues to be appreciated by riders today, thanks to its distinctive character and enduring practicality.
