Unfortunately, my budget only stretches to 10 or 12 grand, so probably will be looking at earlier models, maybe 2011's.
The earlier model engine characteristics sound more like my thing to be honest, and my local track's back straight is pretty short!
Doe's anyone know the approx cost of replacing the valve springs and anyone in SA or Vic that is a good reliable Aprilia mechanic?
Thanks Kimbo for the info on Guzzidiag as well, I will check it out.
I am half thinking, that if it is all too hard, I should go back to a jappa.....
