  1. Well, I am kinda looking at the bike I have ALWAYS wanted

    http://www.apriliausa.com/en-US/Model/20441/RSV+1000+R/Overview.aspx

    Just hesitant because it is a V-Twin

    I just traded my '08 Tuono in. The reason I did was I want something for long distance comfort and something my wife would be comfortable being on the back of.

    With that being said... If you own a V-Twin Rotax powered Aprilia you will not want to go back to an in-line. I loved the characteristics of that engine. It made it so fun to ride. Torque down low still with a decent redline.

  2. We took a couple of fun pics the night I got the bike... I'll ask her tonight if I'm allowed to post one or two ;) If I had your cell I'd TXT it.

    Here's me on the bike after getting it home, looking pleased as punch!

    Great looking bike (Yamaha makes very few unattractive ones :D ). Dude, PM me any weekend to ride. :)

  3. Josh, exactly how long have you been riding that feel like you're going to make mistakes with the throttle and that an older 600 is a lot of bike? I'm asking because I don't know if you're really very new to riding or if you're Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy over thinking things. :confused:

    Oh, and I like the suggestion of buying something that you're going to be on for a while without the intent to flip. This is a great time to get a deal on something you'd really want. You've got to shake this indecisiveness my man. :)

    Oh... squeezing the tank more with your knees will subconsciously loosen your death-grip on the bars. ;)

    Now, go buy a damn bike tomorrow and let's go for a ride we're actually supposed to have a reprieve from the rain. :D
