I prefer the looks of the original and a Tamburini is simply porn...But my god I'd still give a testicle for that. Fucking wonderful bike. And the Brutale was the fastest from 30 (iirc) to 130mph that Bike had ever tested. By quite a bit! Hammered Hayabusa's and ZX14R's I need a Ducati or MV Agusta in my life.

RSV4 over the new MV any day! Saw the new MV in the flesh yesterday when i picked up the Duke from being serviced. It looks a tad boring i have to say. Very similar to the old one, just a few grills removed and different exhaust pipes.
The RSV4 has a presence about it, and with the Akrapovic exhaust system on they sound immense. And it looks that bit more special.

Get out. Single sided swing arms are stunning. I agree that the RSV4 is also pornographic and that noise could directly descend from heaven but there is just something about the F4 that makes it look that bit more special for me!

I'm going to have to top this thread every couple of days so that I can listen to the noise of the RSV4 again. Getting bored of having to search

I was part of the development team for the race project when they first came out. Awesome bikes, but the engines are so short lived that they are not really a cost effective option for a road bike. Im still getting one come winter though lol!
Have a look at the thundersport series, guy who used to run our shop and newt from aprilia racing are running a challenge series with them modified as road bikes... now they are a serious bit of kit!
