I’ve had a ’01 RSVR track bike for 7 yrs, ‘kin love the vibrating snorting beast, everyone scoffs “you *still* riding that old thing!” but a couple of yrs ago Aprilia ran a marketing track days with all the latest toys, had couple of sessions on RSV4Factory, now obvs, the sheer smoothness, the comparative night vs day brakes (!), yet still, I came away from the day lovin’ my big old girl even more, the character, the visceral physical wrestle 😉 and all for $4.5k with 4k on the clock delivered to my door in NYC from Cali. Having said that, there’s an RC51 with 3k on the clock for $7k and nearby…wish I had the cash to spare…nice vid, tks.
