Aprilia's most loyal customer

B

Badger

I am claiming this prize at the moment, had Mille's since 1998, here they are in order, now on my fourth incarnation of them, covered over 60k miles on them too, with very little bother really, i just luv these babes:thumbup

First was a lovely Tri Colour, i still have a soft spot for this bike

SOT604%20049.jpg


it was retired as a road bike and converted to the track........

I have had no real desires to own any other marque really since buying my first Mille, previous to the Mille i had all the IL4 jap stuff, Blades, Exups etc., it just seems that the Aprilia is the thing that rocks my boat.

Anyone more loyal than me then:lookaround:biggrin:biggrin
 
great bikes...spec the 04 (cause i have exact same model) but i do have a really soft spot for the black..What in your experience has been the best to own/ride???
 
Love the look of the Factory. Personally I like the gold frame, goes so well with those wheels.
 
Hail! Hail! Badger.:hail:hail It will be interesting to see the replies to your challenge.
 
Ive only had the one and only for 2 wks does that count as a record :lol, but i can see many more rsvs in the future mmm :hailV4 future.
 
just thought i have had one rsvr.... but 2 engines??? do i get a bonus point for that???
 
But ive had one rsv and 2 gearboxes :devious, that must be double bonus :confused
 
05 bike rode as it should be and maintained as it should be??? they think that the clutch basket failed, on opening her up it looked like she had taken ectasy and had a wild party inside with a hammer and chisel:thumbup all under warranty thankfully:thumbup

Bloody hell :scared
Hope i'm not going to experience that..... Lucky that she did it under warranty.
 
got to admit it though a big thanks went to southern cross, he knows how she gets ridden and when she went on the track:dunno but that is what they were designed for i suppose:thumbup and she has done a few miles
 
Following the service/repair bill with the last bike I'm hoping to be as happy and content with this one as you are Badger!
 
I have never been so happy with mine since southern cross got on the case:thumbup
