"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
--Thomas Jefferson
what mille is it? what year? very nice!
The bike is:
2001 Aprilia RSV1000 Mille R
True "R" model - all the Ohlins goodies, OZ wheels,... etc. Also has the full dual sided Akropovic exhaust system, EPROM performance chip, Dynojet PCIII, Evolutionize air box kit, and Aprilia Ergal GP Shift Lever.
Odometer is 29,6'ish. Brand new DID ERV chain and AFAM sprockets. Sprag (starter) clutch and housing replaced early last year and forks serviced recently. Dunlop GP-A tires installed in April
Full two-up subframe has been added as well.
Basically - this bike has everything I ever wanted to do to my '03 when I owned it and then some - and has been taken care of impeccably. I could not ask for a better return to two, especially for the wonderful consideration on the price Jim let me have it for!
I have not stopped smiling since about 4:30 yesterday!

I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

Thanks Barn!
It most certainly is good to be!
Guess it's time to alter my sig line a bit too now that I am legitimately riding again, and even have a name picked out already!
