:lol:

I'm insane... i love aprilia's. I especially loved my RS50 2k spec'. Until it's untimely demise when it hit a car. :cry: :cry:
Any who,

My bike was made in '97 and is a rocket when it's in the mood.
0 ->60 in ....unmmm 'note to self - record 0->60 speed'
aprilia's need a lot of TLC, as with all Italians they tend to break things without you knowing. They look great, go well, and sound better (especially when u stick an ARROW exhaust system on them) :wink:
I have noticed that they tend to go through Chain/Sprockets too often, and they arent cheap to buy. Speaking of which, nothing for an aprilia is cheap and you have to wait ages for parts from aprilia UK, up in scotland.

So..... to sum it up,

aprilia's are great fun, look good too, but if you buy 1 be sure to have a serious amount of ££ to spend on it coz it's gonna go wrong sooner or later......and Don't fall off, that'll cost you a fourtune :?

hell yeah! When you all get your premium renewals, make sure your new policy is underwritten by Equity Red Star - being insured to ride ANY bike kicks arse! (only 3rd party only mind... but its still means i can ride anything i want on the road!) :lol:

and no im not telling the insurance that im doing this 2 it :shock:

The insurance would be HUGE or they just wouldnt insure me :lol:

Hopefully i wont bin it but if i do then ill take everything thats modded off and put all the standard parts back on before i report it :lol:

Tark

lol it would be a laugh :D

i hope that wasn't about the penitration!! :shock:

Your insurance would not insure you as it wouldn't be a 50 and therefore you wouldn't even have a licence to ride it. Dont get caught doing over 32 mph cos then the plod will know its de-restricted and will want to strip it down if they have nothing better to do. :evil:

Sorry Si, but it dont work like that. When i wrote off my Rs50 plod were there b4 the Ambulance and i was less than a mile from the hospital!!
Plod asked all these questions and ****. I only got away with it being D-restrickted coz i had a full licence
