Aprilia SXV 4.5 and 5.5
 
I think these look very cool if your after a super moto with a v-twin engine to!! Im very tempted go one sale in Dec. for 6400 for 450cc and 6600 for 550cc. They are runnning a 180/55x17" rear tyre to:D:D

Only thing I dont like is small tank of 7.8 litres and appears to be no lock on the cap. And I think it may be more nickable than my S4r due to kids wanting it as I expect it will be quite light. and no word of its immobilized or not.

Heres a pic:D:D

Rear pic love the exhaust and fat tire on super moto!

Finally one fo the engine which I imagine will find its way into a sports bike at some point:D:D

Single over head cams with rocker actuated exhaust valves (aaahhhh rockers :lol::lol: hope they plate em well:lol:)
4 valve heads with titanium valves. Notice how the cylinder bores are part of the crankcase and has reaplceable wet liners very compact:D:D all covers are magesuim to:)

I love the supermoto, and if I had the cash I'd buy one.

If they stick the 550 engine in an RS250-esque chassis I'd sell my 749S for one...

That really is awsome, dare I say...Even more awsome then the Ducati Hypermotard.:puzzled:

Aprillia are keeping the whole spirit on "supermoto" by keeping it compact, small and light.
That Vtwin engine is tiny...

And if its on sale this December, is gotta be worth a look.
