Traded in my S for a Aprilia RSV. I have some S parts for sale on the sale page.

??? it comes in red, black, and grey, all with the lion. Full Ohlins suspension, radial brakes, better wheels... or is that just the Italian market and we get screwed in the US? If I could only afford 2 bikes

Get ready for a different sort of very intense fun. I loved my Mille and was lucky that I kept my S the whole time (27 months) that I had the RSV. Some much better for real world and real road conditions that any of the Ducatis that are out there running around. Its in the suspension..........the RSV is easier to drive fast on regular roads than some of its stiffer sprung (track only intended) brothers from Ducati. Still, in the end, when it got down to going out and riding at a strong pace for extend periods on the two lane backroads that lace the deep south.......the R11S was still the one I'm married to. But make no mistake........the Aprilla mistress that I enjoyed for a while still comes into my dreams at times. Have fun with your wonderful new machine. All they are going to see is your tail light.........

Duh, no kiddin. My buddy has a futura with RSV cams, requisite chip and staintune pipe/headwork by the local go-fast guy and it's by-bye aprilia when he put's er in warp 9. yards away from my S on top like the S is tied to a stump...but his 'prilia doesn't have a shaft..

The 95's are not avail yet and the dealer near me wont be ordering any due to the fact that he has to many 04's. He had 2 red ones left and i got a great deal on one. All the factorys are black or grey I have never seen a red one. I have owned R1's GSXR's Ninja's and CBR's and a few other sport bikes and the RSV talk's to me more than any of those bikes ever did even after tuned.
