So long my friend. A great bike goes to another home tomorrow while I'm on a plane for ORF.
I ended coming down $400 and sold it immediately. Guy was here with cash and I just signed the pink. So all told I, minus wear & tear items (tires, oil, filter, brake pads, registration), the cost of ownership was $500 for 9K miles.
So once back in town the search gets serious as I am officially bikeless
. Top candidates are still a nicely modded RC51 or a clean low mile BCR, or...a Ducati superbike...996...
Sorry, I'm sure the Aprilia has a sweet motor but they just doesn't speak to me. Maybe I need to learn a couple catchy Italian phrases...
