Aprilia is set to unveil their real supermoto V4 motor made in house by Aprilia should be out this time next year to run MotoGP
Aprilia's new motor makes close to 200 hp..
Think about that 4 little pistons at 1000 cc makes just over 200 hp in race form !

You're just left with yourself all the time, whatever you do anyway. You've got to get down to your own God in your own temple. It's all down to you, mate.

Test rode the new Aprillia SMV 750 Dorsoduro a few weeks ago ... twice! After 2 hours constant riding was very impressed. Not got the same character as my Baggi - but was definately fun! Would consider one as long as I kept the Baggi too (really comfy gel seat - no numb bum!)
