Aprilia has already been racing its 450cc v-twin supermoto. 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.

An Aprilia i can afford

What your guesses on Price?

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.

Its says aprilia designed and built this motor in house, is this the only non-rotax aprilia motor?

Excellent!! It's about time we had some small displacement sportbikes available again!

I'd be willing to bet two dollars that the suspension will be light years beyond the SV's....

I'm sorry, but I was at the dealership today, Aprilia still makes a sweet bike. Too pricey for my blood, but one good looking bike though.

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.
