Come on you guys. The luggage wasn’t even secured and was stuffed with coveralls so it looks a little big.
I pack really light and this bike will work just fine with the Mosko gear!

This thread, and a few others, are like the personnel directory of all the board participants over the years. Some now passed, others moved on, and many still lurking but no longer post.

Having a hard time staying away from those Aprilia's aren't you? They are addicting.

Indeed they are. The Rotax twin in Gen 1 &2 will give the Boxer a run for the money in terms of durability. The handing on these is incredible.

Reminds me of my 03 Tuono Factory.. man was it a fun bike.. no need for ABS or traction control.. it's all rider control.. glad I sold it before I could lose my license.

Aprilia has to be one of the best kept secrets of the motorcycle world. The brand offers so much bang for the buck that getting one is a no brainer. The CE is actually my second Ape. First one was 2007 RSV Bol d'Or which was a gorgeous bike which I sold to a friend.

Nothing like pinning the engine at 12k rpm and pulling through a sweeper with tiny bike.
Best $450 I've ever spent for a motorcycle, rode the piss out of it for 8 months and then sold it for $750:

EZS is a Dutch sidecar mfr.
Liberty Sidecars in Portland mounted it for us.
TUV approved! Mounting kit replaces fork, rear spring, both wheels, and integtates sodecar brake with rear brake pedal.
Somewhat different than my R69/URAL rig.
