Clearly your only choice is to buy me the rc8r. That way you will have the joy of the purchase without all that nagging bike maintenance.

Zach just go buy the thing! You know no one on here can talk you out of it. Don't bullshit your self, you posted up on here just to help yourself over the last little hump to pulling the trigger. So when you get it I want to ride it at least around the block.
My vote: Black/Orange
Oh and now you get to get a shiny new helmet!
Love you brotha!!!
Now get after it!

I would try to dissuade you, but I want both of those bikes so badly that my teeth are aching. Both bikes are rarely seen on the street, so +1 on the uniqueness factor.
If I were to make an immediate choice, I'd pick the RC8R, but I'm a sucker for a v-twin. After seeing and hearing Hotcarcass's RC8R, I'm fixing to get one myself eventually. However, the RSV4 Factory is pretty much unstoppable in WSBK right now, so I have to give it mad props as well. Looks like you have a tough choice ahead of you. Good luck with either purchase. I'll justuntil I have one of my own.
If it makes a difference I read somewhere that aprilia has leftover 2009 factories for 13k.
Get a warranty with that RC8R. That's definitely the bike I would choose.
Go to the KTM forums - RC8 section and read about 5 pages of the most replied to threads
Don't walk out of there without a warranty. The LC8 engine can be finicky

RC8 no!

What's wrong with Yamaha btw? I know those 26,000 mile valve service intervuls aren't for everyone...
Every Yamaha I've had has been bullet proof. My FJR has 36000 miles on it and feels brand new. It's very common to see Yamahas with over 100k miles and on occasion 200k miles.
Sport bikes usually just don't live that long but not due to mechanical reasons

I'm really leaving towards the KTM and I might have found a smoking deal on one. Going to see it in the morning. I'd really prefer the black and orange, but if I can get the deal I'm looking for, I'll take whichever color they have!
That black and orange is just nasty!!!!! Good luck on a dope bike!!
