you need to be tall to fit on a RSVR

I had a ride on a RSVR haga rep recently and to be honest I prefer my 749. I felt really on top of the aprillia rather than part of it which I get from the ducati. I didnt ride the bike for long so didnt really get time for the feel. So Im probably not worth listening to :)
One of my mates who rides and r1 has also been for a spin on both the duke and aprillia and he said the duke felt better, but that was on a 749 not 748.

tricky.

Huh? Your two current bikes for a 03 MilleR?

I say NO!!

What year is your 748S and your RS anyway?

Delooney 22-Oct-2005 20:51

The RS is an '02 plate, 7500 miles and showroom.

The 748s is a 2000 plate, 7100 miles, with 50mm termis etc.

The RSVR is a black Haga rep, 2003 plate 7000 miles and mint.

I'm 5'9", and your right it does look a tall bike.

Delooney.

Totto 22-Oct-2005 21:38

If the Ducati fits you then the RSV wont , my 998 fits perfic and the RSV is made for Monkey shaped people well the one i tried was anyway :D:frog:

Hmmmm..... a Haga rep, is worth a few more.
Previous model RSVR's have been quite unexpensive in the second hand market everywhere, that's why i say don't do it.

I had a 2001 RSVR for three or more years and liked it alot, but i don't think i would make that trade.
I didn't find the RSVR that tall, never had a problem with that and i'm about your heigh.

But give it a try on the RSVR and see how it feel for you.
