Well BMW might be slow to produce their bikes, but not the slowest!

"2008 Aprilia V4 1000

Hi everyone ; I,ve just recieved my latest Australian motorcycle news magazine that we get every 2 weeks down here and there was an artical and an artist impression of what that bike should look like.
Most of the time the bike when released comes in pretty close to the artist picture in the mag. I tell you its finaly going to look like a pretty mean good looking machine in V4 configiration with a claimed 170 HP out put."

So Aprillia took almost three years from when we first heared about it until we saw it!
