    Personally, I've never liked the Aprilias sound. I've heard a few of them with different exhaust arrangements and they always end up with an unnatural sound, not pure rumbling like the TL's, SV's or Storms.

    Thank goodness where all different, but to me you cannot beat the 60 degree growl, especially up in the rev range, my old Mille with a Arrow can and stuff all packing sounded horn, but each to their own.

    It's the 60-degree V-twin thing; anything that's not a 90 sounds weird if you ask me.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    No It didn't before I fitted Ohlins and Traxxion either.

    What you didn't get was the swine orientated word play.

    I'd be taking it back and asking for a real motorcytcle

    The Aprilia's i've heard at track days all sound pretty good from the pit wall. Not so good going past me down the main straight. Any twin sound is a good twin sound.
