Italian Bikes
 

For those who like other bikes (non-CBRs), I thought I would post a pic of the new Aprilia SXV 550 that will coming to the USA in Spring 2006. 70-75 Bhp, just shy of 250lbs, and a V-twin (Can you say rocket?). Spring time can't come fast enough for me.

Oh yeah, hot-ass Italian girl not included.

Nice looking dual purpose ride. Don't forget about the design flaw in V-twins.... they're only running on two cylinders. That's my joke I use on all of my cruiser riding buddies. I never got into the v-twin following, inline and boxers run much smoother and produce more power. Are you buying the Aprilia for street or off-road? And I think I'd see what it would take to have the optional "hot ass Italian girl" included in the purchase.

I love my Honda, but an Aprilia would be awesome.

That is one of the worst replies I have ever read. You gotta have something better to say than that.

I'm not a big fan of the Aprilia.

Theres one major problem with italian bikes we find here in the UK, they either fall apart, die electrically, or just rot. Do you have any similar problems over your side of the gene pool?

On my side of the pond, I don't see any. I live in a large military town (Virginia Beach, Virginia) with lots of bikes around, but I have never ran accross one here.
