On this page you can find links to online reviews of professional motorcycling magazines, and members reviews! Indeed, reviews written by members of this site. We encourage members to share their experience with other RSV4 enthusiasts so more people getting excited about the RSV4 models. LosPer is the first to do that and I hope others will follow. Thank you LosPer for doing this.
If you would like to do the same, sharing your experience with us, just create a new post in this forum and I will create a custom page with a intro on the home page.

Well, I spent some time on the Aprilia yesterday....followed by some seat time on my Ducati 848 and my 05 CBR1000RR as a basis for comparison. Here are some quick impressions riding the bike in TRACK mode/map only, on a cold day (48 degrees ambient) and on damp roads. I took the RSV4-R on some local twisties, and got it up as high as 123 MPH to test acceleration and perceived speed. Stock tires, Metzler Racetec K3, 32 PSI Front (Cold) 34 PSI Rear (Cold). Just under factory recommendations for a single rider.
Here is my 2 cents on the RSV4 Factory. I got mine last Wednesday after test riding it. I just took it in for it's 600 mile service today. I'm 6'2" and 225 pounds. I took it to Racetech and had the suspension adjusted yesterday. Then I rode about 175 miles. Today I went about 250 miles and took it in for service. I now have a total of 650 miles. Not too bad for 5 days and rain last weekend! Managed to collect my first ticket on it today, that sucked.
