LOL I know which one Elvis has/will be guilty of!

lmao

I would have bought a busa for a first bike, if someone had one for me to see if i liked it.

I have let someone patch my tire.

I commute, but there aren't any chicken strips!

Carbon fiber IS IT!!

Mirrors only show me my elbows anyway.

heh...

Im guilty of a few.

elbows and heh.........

I have a neighbor across the street from me with a 2000 Mille, its very sweet, he is a Lambo/Ferreri Supervisor/Mechanic at Dallas Lambo. He has it "chipped" and exhaust and some other little goodies.

Well he is REALLY wanting to get a new 996 Mille R and I have offered to buy it many times.

Does anyone have any Pro's and Con's of the bike or what a good price range to pay for it is? My understanding is they are every bit as good as a Ducati and even better in some respects but that I should also expect to pay the price for owning an Italian machine i.e. maintenence is pricey.

O.T. he brings home some of the finest cars I have ever seen, and takes me for a drive almost everytime.

Is the one he has now an "R" model? Either way they are very nice. I would buy one in a heartbeat if i could afford it. I like them better than Ducati's. Yes the price on maintenence is a little higher, but there are shops you can find that won't gouge you on working on them. If i remember correctly they are not as high maintenance as a Ducati. Go for it!!!

His is not an R model currently, I did some google searching though and most reviews I read all stated that a reg. Mille and a Mille R was not much different except the price tag and a little "tuning" in 2000, he wants to get the New Mille R which is quite a bit different than his, but I have been salivating over his bike for 2 years now, its that race yellow and sounds SWEET.

Actually the R model is quite a bit different. It has more carbon fiber bits, OZ racing wheels, Full Ohlins suspension, and a couple of other small things. The regular model is still nice. Thats another thing i like about Aprilia's over Duc's is that you don't see very many of them. You see Duc's everywhere.

im guilty of the bald tires in the center and tread on the side.... my last tire had TONS of tread on the side and none in the center..... but thats what wheelies do

how many aprilla's do you see on the track vs how many dec's you see on the track.... the aprilla wins, becuase it doesnt fall apart

damn, a squid be I....lol. guilty of 8 charges at one time or another.

Suppose to be 68 and sunny on sunday, just curious if anybodys riding? I might go play paintball with some friends in the afternoon but can ride before then

68 and sunny sounds good, but i gotta work.

I'll ride....anyone else wanting to ride?

I think I will be riding in the sherman area. Some good roads down there.

Cool I'll give you a ring at 11am

I'm at work right now
