The Aprilia Alitalia Racing RSV4 Factory went from chain driven cams to gear driven cams at Miller last weekend for Biaggi's third sweep race weekend of the year (6 wins in 2010 so far, Wooo!). When questioned if he could feel a difference between the old and new engine, the Roman Emperor said that he really couldn't, but that the team would be using the new engine for the duration of the year. Do you think that the 2011 or 2012 RSV4 (R or factory) will see a new engine as well? And more importantly, do you think it will matter?
Someone one the Aprilia forum said he was called about a second recall yesterday....maybe this is why since he said that they didn't give him a reason?
maybe they will call me up and offer me the gear driven cams they are expensive to buy in the corse catalog
