Well the Aprilia has been set up to be most comfortable for me, for example, the pegs are down and back and I wear a boot that has a 2.5in lift in it because I have a 30in inseam and need it to touch the ground, so if you got long legs short torso then aprilia will fit you nicely because the bars a bit back towards the rider. The Aprilia is heavier and takes more effort to change direction which makes it stable but over time more fatiguing. The BMW I'm changing the pegs like the aprilia and might get Heli bars because it's got my back at an odd angle and it's uncomfortable but I'll sort that out. Reliability Well I had the Aprilia for 6 years and it's super reliable the only thing I need to fix outside of maintenance is gear position sensor. So far no real issues with BMW but I only had it one year and only have 6500 miles only issue is my oem rear lights blink and throw a code I can take it in for warranty but I'll end up ordering a tail tidy kick. Also I had a bad front tire and BMW did not have any weights on the wheels when they delivered the back so I had to get that sorted.
Hey bro were twinsies! Lol I bought mine used n got 9k miles. At the valves service interval does the check engine light come on or how does that work? I got a guy who works on Italian bikes who can do it but do you need the software to reset lights? I do have TuneECU which can reset some lights. I also saw the puig winglets... Did you have to drill at all to install those downforce monsters lol 🤣
Hi, I got a vid on the winglets check it out! no cutting bolt in a few tips to make installation smooth. The service light does not bother me I just let it sit on i don't care lol. Light comes on for oil changes too no just valve check
@@Porschemovies gotcha! Thank you 🙏 I will take a look! Pisses me off that motorcycle and car manufacturers do shit like that so it forces you to go over pay if you want a service light turned off!
@@TheChaz81 it's a game for sure, you can decide if you want to play it or not right. Also, gear your bike!! -1 front + 2 rear. Unless you got to hit 200mph for some reason LOL
Buenas,estoy pensando en comprar esta moto para un uso en calle y alguna vez circuito. La verdad me echa para atras que la gente las ponga como problematicas o que dan fallos.Aqui en espala hay muy pocas unidades con mas de 15.000km asi que tengo dudas. La moto me encanta y seria una RR 2018
The reliability of the bike really depends on the previous owner. Back in the 90s, I bought Ducatis, and while everyone said they weren't reliable, I managed to get 42K miles out of my 748. They were admittedly a pain to maintain, with most of the issues being electrical due to poor insulation of the wiring from the elements, as well as some challenges with the rear hub because of the single-sided swingarm. In terms of the RSV4, I believe the sweet spot in the U.S. is the 2017-2020 models, which feature the 201hp motor. They updated the valve train and reinforced the rods in those years, addressing some of the earlier issues. The 2009 models were prone to engine failures, and the 2009-2016 models had valve train problems. Additionally, the 2009-2014 models suffered from stator and rectifier issues. As for my 2018 RSV4 with 25K miles, it has been incredibly reliable, much more so than any Ducati I’ve owned.
