Aprilia

#1 PostAuthor: Is Vic There » Sat Mar 07, 2015 10:12 pm

Hi Guys,

Got the Aprilia delivered to the house on Friday, always a bit nervous when you buy something from ebay! Well first impressions were good except for no ignition, went to put the battery on charge and its totally stuffed!
Got up Saturday morning an took all the panels off for an inspection and clean, very happy with the bike, totally original and not messed with. Took the battery from the RGV and hooked it up, give it a little choke and she burst in to life 1st kick, sounds great and smells even better!
Took her for a quick blast and holy cow these things move, stop and go round corners very well indeed!

So I'm a happy bunny!

Nice bike, I've got one of those.

Battery lasts about a week off charge, I find they last around six months or so before they need replacing.

Keep a close eye on those power valves :wink:
