    It's the right colour.

    It's also got repsol in it.

    Has to be good. A little less agressive than a street magic.

    Smile I'm biased but...

    I've seen the Aprilia, and I like it. A work of art those things "without the problems that beset their competitors". (BIKE)

    I wouldn't want to own it though, only 'cause I'm too old to be laying all over a bike. I like comfort these days.

    It is an all singin' all dancin' model and you could always sell the GSXR candy bits on Trade Me.

    If you would prefer something approaching logic for a reason: somebody else carried the bulk of the depreciation on the Aprilia. It'll still be worth most of what you paid for it after a year. Can't say that for the others...

    You've had fifty odd bikes as I recall, you *can* do this.

    Have fun whatever

    Arrow Meh.

    I think the answer lies within, I'd go for the Aprillia out of that list. The k3 was a great bike to ride, the k5 was not, the k6 looks much like the k5 and as the Kawasaki, thats just a green k4

    I dunno what it is exactly about the Aprillia, but if I was ever to buy a non Jap bike, it would be one, although it would be a motard...
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
