Wednesday June 01, 2005 I want one of these (Rossi's old factory Aprilia RSV250):
I've seen an 'over-the-counter' (ie the one Aprilia will actually sell you, without the super-trick bits) RSV250 at the track, eating most other bikes (including big road-going litre superbikes) down the straight, so I'd settle for that less fancy version:
Not actually that far fetched a dream, given that old Euro and GP class machines do come up for sale every now and then, just have to try find one :). I check ebay and the Buy and Sell every now and then, but nothing much comes up, except the odd dated machinery, fit only for racing in historical classes. I suspect the nice bikes are sold quite quickly in the paddock...
If anyone knows of an RSV250 for sale, do please let me know. :) Or alternatively, where is the rest of the bike to go with these YZR 500 crankshafts. (You can buy YZR 500s? Where??!!)
