    Well, it looks like BK is right. Even Ralph and the CSC are deleting anything to do with the Vegas shooting.

    Most importantly, though...

    Anyone riding this weekend?

    Damn even Ralph is in on this Vegas cover-up......I always knew that guy was shady, so wonder how much he was paid to remove the evidence.

    Found a smoking deal on a 2016 Aprilia Caponord Rally up in Portland. Bought it and had it shipped to CO. The bike made it safely and is sitting at my parents' house, keys arrive tomorrow and then I can bring it home.

    Very nice dude, saw one of those at Imperial last week when I went to pick up Barns MV. They look pretty packed with goodies. Still have my heart set on a S1000XR at some point for long distance riding at some point.

    Re: WTF!

    I saw the ad for the one at Imperial... I got mine for WAY less... Low enough it made sense to go to Portland, sign the papers and have it shipped home. Hoping to start racking up some mileage soon.

    Hey man can't go wrong with a good deal, if you can land it, go for it. Imperial is a new Aprilia dealer so doubt they can discount much to keep their profit margins.

    Re: WTF!

    These were a snatch up from another Aprilia dealer that had gone out of business, so yeah... I don't expect to see that price again. I got super lucky!

    Just got it home and now that I'm thawed out...








    Once I do a sticker-ectomy and the sun comes out, I'll try to get some better pics...

    Re: WTF!

    Fay Myers and Erico were the only Aprilia dealers so guessing they took over inventory there. Pics don't work for me, not sure but cool man. Glad she's home

    Re: WTF!

    I know Erico no longer carries Aprilia, but Fay's seems to... Last time I was in there, they had an RSV4 on the floor and said they order very few and are normally sold before they get there... Still listed on the website, but not in current inventory, so???

    I'm glad Imperial took up the brand. They're great bikes. Sucks that Aprilia is such a pain in the ass to deal with. I've heard that from numerous dealers. They just don't invest in any dealer network support in the states. Even scarier, I read an article last week saying that Aprilia may be on its death bed because Piaggio is focusing all their efforts on selling scooters to third world countries. But, with their resurgence in MotoGP, I'll believe it when I see it.

    I don't know about the pics... Google must be playing with properties in their photos app again... I can see them, but then again, I'm signed in to my google account.

    Re: WTF!

    A quick note, we do still have Aprilia at Fay Myers. Inventory is light right now, we sold out what we had in the summer and will be getting the 18's in the spring. If there is something you want we can get it as long as it is still available

    I was wondering cause I went to pick up some parts for my Duc and there wasn't one single new Ape on the floor and when I went to Imperial to pick up Barns MV they had said they were the only dealer left in Colorado so yeah. Glad you guys are still around on that.

    I can see some of them now. I was told by Imperial they were the only dealer left in Colorado but guess they were wrong about that even though like I mentioned above, i went in last week for parts for my Duc and there wasn't one single new Ape on the floor so I was like well shit guess they did decide to pull away from it but wrong there too

    ^^ For a while, you would have thought Fay's was a Harley dealership with as many used HD's that were sitting on their floor...

    Tell me about it! I have made jokes about that myself and it also shows that people can learn what a better bike is when they trade in a Harley on something else..
