Expect this bike, along with a street legal version, to enter production for the 2006 model year. This is a bike with close to 70 horsepower (on par with a Suzuki SV650) that weighs less than 300 pounds. It should be great fun to ride.

I'm gonna say 7K$.....And for that price not sure i would buy it, but if itll do 130 and get 50MPG and have a tour range of 250miles, id have to consider it.... if i can ride it far enough to get to some great twisity roads it woud be a BLAST there.

Too pricey for my blood, but one good looking bike though. ScottSellersUNR 03-27-2005, 01:25 PM You wont find amny that dont think Aprilia is one of the most beautiful bikes. If i could affrod it id get one....wouildnt be the best all around bike but to cruise on it would get more @$$ then most bikes.
