I remain confused whether there's a rear view camera or not. Can you confirm?

There is a back-up rear view camera now as standared but no parking distance feature (no audible warnings and no unsightly small circles on the bumpers).

Drove my '08 Scuderia after driving the GT3 and it was very apparent how much progress has been made with transmissions in the last 10 years.

Great spec car and good deal on the pricing as well. I had the same Aprilia!

Congratulations!! What a great surprise as you say!
Love the Ape as well. I just put an SC Project exhaust on my 17 Tuono and the Ducati and Gixxer don't get a look in now lol!

Congrats, the dealer package is a little inflated, but a more palatable way to take ADM. As long as their PPF installer was good, that is.

What’s up Matt. I drove a 2016 Tuono R with that exhaust last week.. by far the nicest bike I’ve ever ridden in my life.. I felt like a traitor to the Hyper. Amazing brakes (this had a brembo master cylinder), great front end feel, amazing shifting, beautiful power delivery. I didn’t know bike’s had gotten so good. Now I want one

Thank you for all of the compliments guys!

I didn't realize there were Aprilia fans on Rennlist. I've never had a bike before and wanted to get a bike solely for the track.

I did a lot of reading on them and concluded that the Aprilia RSV4 RF was a great bike for tracking and that it was stable, predictable, and reliable. Not to mention it has enough "nannies" on it to keep newbies like me from self destructing on track.

The bike is a technological tour-de-force with launch control, wheelie control, traction control, ABS, sequential shifter...etc. I would not be able to ride something that weighs a little over 400 pounds and has over 200hp without help from the electronical wizardry.

I must admit that I have never felt weaker as a link between man and machine than when I get on this bike. Accelerarion literally alters your vision it is so intense. It is STUPID fast!

I purchased the bike to keep me occupied while I was in-between track cars.

I will still take the bike to the track every month, but my true passion is with four wheels.

You made a good choice, the best one probably.. and this is coming from a man with a collection of only Ducati’s.

Your next step is to find a 4 wheel track car with that jewel of an Aprilia rsv4 engine. :-)


Oh wait... I️ just found one
