    What is your opinion of this Aprilia Falco?

    I have a friend looking at this, but to be honest I've never ridden one and don't know much about them. Does anyone have an opinion? Is $3900 a steal or a ripoff? What do you think?

    You could pm Chad23. He had a Falco, actually, I think he bought another one. He always talked very highly of the bike. Even after having a few Japanese liter bikes.

    A fried of mine loves his, about 50k miles or so. If I didn't have my SV I'd be all over that Falco.

    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    Re: What is your opinion of this Aprilia Falco?

    Rotax motors start their breaking in period about 20k and most Falco owners who sold them have mentioned that they wished they'd have them back since they're ridden without any, or hardly any issues, until 65+k. Unlike Ducs, Aprilia rotax motors rarely need valve adjustments routinely...

    The Mille/RSV was raced up until I sold her with 26k

    The '07 RSVR just turned 19k, stock battery, and I'm keeping her until at least 65k+
