looking for a 17+ rsv4 racebike either superstock or full blown superbike let me know what’s out there.
Not sure where you're located, but some big discounts on new.....That 2 yr warranty would be nice when buying new. https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/2018-Aprilia-RSV4-RR-5003792194 These guys don't do fees/title/tax crap.....Their price is usually the walk out the door price. I'm assuming you're hip to the RSV4's.?.....This new '17 RF for $17k that has the Ohlins TTX, Ohlins NIX 30 forks, Ohlins damper, and Aprilia/OZ forged aluminum rims, auto blipper, TFT dash, APRC, etc....is pretty much a race ready bike minus some race bodywork. https://www.xps-usa.com/default.asp?page=xInventoryDetail&id=5276736&p=1&make=aprilia&at=atv|motorcycle / scooter|utility vehicle|snowmobile&vc=sport&s=Year&d=D&vt=motorcycle / scooter&fr=xAllInventory
Yea, i go to hsbk looking for used parts quite often. But does the OP know the ins and outs like we kind do. On this '18 RR that they have, https://www.hsbkracing.com/motorcycle-inventory/2018-aprilia-rsv4-rr-hsbk-spec-track-race-bike-en/ , they basically put $11,000 in parts and labor into add-ons. You can get an '18 RR for $14k right now. Their cost on that bike since they're a dealer was probably $12k. I don't see $13,000 in parts there. The only big $ add-ons they did were the race ecu and exhaust, that you don't get on the '17 RF that i posted for $17k. You already get all the Ohlins bits ($3500) plus the $2500 forged rims on the RF. Those forged rims are the best improvement on these fat bikes. The side to side transition/flickability is night and day on these bikes when you have forged rims. They really make the bike feel and handle much lighter than it actually is. You could buy the '17 RF (better resale value too btw) and add $2-3k maximum in race ecu/slipon (i got my arrow GP2 slipon and race ecu for $1000 on my '16 Tuono RR), bodywork (ebay, for $450, great cheap bodywork, been using for many years on all my bikes), clipons, 520 kit, rearsets, engine/frame guards.....and still be ahead by $5000+ on hsbk bike. And that hsbk doesn't have forged rims....that should be a deal breaker in itself. You could also sell the Factory body work for $1500 if you didn't want to keep it. I doubt that'll you get the OEM bodywork/lights/mirrors from the hsbk bikes. If OP's budget is $50,000, then disregard my input. lol. https://www.ebay.com/itm/APRILIA-RS...664782?hash=item1cb419a8ce:g:82UAAOSwl9BWJkY9
I am familiar with the RSV4 I agree the addons make it difficult to justify what they are charging I'm sure its a solid bike with a good setup. Also I have spoken with them and they offer a lot of support with the purchase which is nice. I do want the RF with the forged wheels, just seeing what is out there first before I decide to go ahead and build one from myself. If my budget was up in the 50k range I would be going after the Milwaukee bike.
xps-usa will ship to you at a highly discounted rate too.....they offered $200 IIRC when i bought my '16 Tuono from them.
Fz is already gone, not 100% on what next year holds but this is definately I’m the list as a potential. Might have to get 2 bikes next year.
Yeah, I totally get the list price for what you get on the HSBK bikes, but my thought was perhaps they are negotiable on them in order to move them (?) There were a few nice options that were for sale here not too long ago that may still be around. http://forums.13x.com/index.php?threads/2013-aprilia-rsv4-track-race.356211/#post-5421736 http://forums.13x.com/index.php?threads/2014-rsv4-factory-socal.356112/ http://forums.13x.com/index.php?threads/wts-2013-aprilia-rsv4-track-race-bike.353714/
Yeah I took a look at these but really looking for the updates that came with the 17 and newer models. I might try reaching out but didn’t want to start the haggling with them until I explored my options and really understood the market and details of these builds and starting with a brand new bike.
