Aprilia RSV4 launched

[DoubleEagle]

he meant for the SBK a V4 16 valve instead of the V2 8 valve.

high volume production should keep prices below 25k but i can't see the 848 getting a v4

maybe a 1200 v4 and a 900 v2 for the sbk

I think the 2v is history in the next year or 2,  EPA !   Dolph

[DoubleEagle]

I don`t give a damn who said what, I want one

Better hope Biaggi does well w/ the bike or the sales volume won't justify production.   Dolph

EPA? what do you mean. the ducati twin doesn't mean EPA?

[Capo]

I like it - it looks better then the old bike. It does have a CBR'ish look to it on the front end.  From the early spy shots that I have seen the thing looks tiny:



Unless the guy riding it is an oger 

Reports I have read have remarked on it's relatively small size

[DesmoTull]

Man, with that BMW, now THIS....

WSBK is going to be real fun to watch next year...

This weeks MCN quotes Aprila as saying a V4 Tuono is in the early stages of design, expected for 2010.

The price of the Factory is expected to be about 75% of the current cost of a 1098R.

Depends on the stats.

Word!  It's a really nice looking machine, and I am sure it will scoot like a startled cheetah, but $30K?  Not so sure about that...
