Aprilia RSV4

Want.

Wheelpower had their demonstrator parked up at Box Hill today. Aside
from the exhaust, which tbh isn't that awful, it's very, very tasty.

Shame about the price vs bank balance equation really. Maybe next year,
if I don't chop the thou in for a K6.

£14,499 OTR. They're basically homologation specials, Ducati-style.

RSV4 + forward-mounted Ventura rack = pillion perch. Problem solved.

 

Very nice isn't it? The can looks gash, but thats an easy fix.

Is there going to be a non-Factory version with a laughable pillion seat
for, say, 11.5k?

If the Mille's anything to go by you'll miss out on trick wheels and Ohlins
rear shock, but I honestly never feel like those things are preventing me
from reaching my potential as a riding god.

I had a good look at one when we went to the Milan show last November
and considered it as a different option for the bike to replace the
10R.

I'd sooner have had the MV than the Aprillia if I'd decided to go for
a replacement.

 

It's a daft amount of money for something to be utterly abused shirly?
IMHO of course.

 

What's that got to do with it?

 

Says the man with a string of Ducatis behind him.

 

Yes but none of them cost me very much! All 6 bikes I own cost less
than a single 1198.

OK I'm a tight barsteward when it comes to bikes these days, but I abuse
them so it seems reasonable. I spent a vast amount more on the porker
but in turn I lavish more care and attention on it than a teenage Thai
au-pair
