Gotta agree about the Aprilia 125 although lusting for a 250 model they keep denying. Me thinks they want to put one out in a 500 instead. That bike is small for me so my 'Ultimate' wish would have to be a track bike along the lines of a PS. I did not know there was a 1080 kit for it. I know in good the PS is around 100 hp. But my fat arse carcus needs the sbk torque in the corners to turn me out of a tight apex. So, it'd have to say either a 999s or r but would really like a PS set up like T has it. Although after riding CDC's monster I do really like that torque it has. 1098s is bad to the bone but again, just a little too short forme.
1. - PS track bike
2. - 999/s or r
3. - 1978-79 Desmo 900
4. - fix up my ST4s with mods  Grin

I'm waiting for just the right to pounce  Evil. That's another MO of Rock Bottom Racing.
It's more fun that way.  laughingdp

I'm still massively lusting after my own bike.  Needs clear coat to protect lisa's handiwork, and maybe some ohlins internals and pipes down the line...

Other than that, I love the PS, would love the new black SC, and still jizz in my pants over the MV Agusta 750 silver/red paint scheme..  Also probably the Benelli Tornado Tre 900 ( everything they came out with afterwards looks a little funny to me, even for the Italians ).

Also, I'm cool with the spaceship look...

I'm lusting over the 09 Aprilia RS125.  I figure you upgrade the suspension, throw in a full racing exhaust (the european street legal exhausts for 2 strokes mess up the power curve way too much, I've heard), re-carb it, throw some track plastics on it and you have a 255lbs (say - 5 lbs for the exhaust and -5 pounds for headlights, street platics, etc..), say 35hp machine (30hp is the EU legal restriction, shouldn't be hard to hit 35hp).

Sounds like something with which I could get my confidence back.  Again.

That's probably because they are now owned by a Chinese company... not long before we'll see "Benelli" scooters and four wheelers for sale at Pep Boys. Tongue
