Sounds like the Aprilia RS660 is happening

Wonder what the Bore/Stroke is?

The Aprilia propaganda I looked at suggested they thought it would be competetive against 600 class bikes, that would require a pretty extreme twin...

 

3 major hurdles first:
build 1000 of them
sell in the US
don't blow up

 

Dammit. I’m going to miss EICMA by one day. Was really hoping to see this and the new KLR replacement. Have seen a lot of T700s here and they look sweet, but too heavy for me.

 

Can't you spend one less day camping outside the gate in Tavullia?

 

Are those things not happening?

Is this going into production like the RSV4, or is it just some limited edition special?

 

I skirted Siena today, at least 150 miles from Tavullia.

 

Is that the female version of when you "pants" a dude in public?

If so, how did Siena take it?

 

Like a body in a glass coffin.....remains to be seen

 

Dude WTF

 

Someone’s wanting a piece of the EU MT-07 market.

Niiiiiiiice

 

The only Aprilia dealers I see within two states are scooter dealers. Realistically besides AF 1 how many Aprilia motorcycle dealers in the USA? I mean who actually have motorcycles for sale.

 

This is what makes me think we won’t see the 660. If one looks at the cost of EPA certification versus return on that investment, I just don’t see the math working out. I could be wrong, though.

 

Regular production.... So there is no way you could possibly buy all of them. The Italians are familiar with your tactics

AI29 with a little teaser and sound clip

 

I proposed to AF1 that I would open AF1 Midwest. They didn't seem interested at all, despite being in a semi-major market with no Aprilia dealer.

 

I googled it just now and was surprised to find out there was still one in my city out by the airport.

 

Would be awesome if they fudged the name a little and it's under 650cc and they murdered everyone at the TT.

 

I don’t know the details, but, STL couldn’t support the dealer they had.
