    2007 Aprilia SXV 5.5 ***(Price update)***

    For sale 2007 Aprilia SXV 5.5
    Less than 4000 miles. No problems at all.
    Comes with the correct engine case seal from factory.
    I thought I was going to do more track-days this year with it, but I’ve only done 4, including the 3 it went to Grattan, and it’s just sitting in my garage collecting dust.
    I’ve been saying it’s going for sale this weekend for a few months now, so I guess I’m not very motivated to sale…
    I’ll post pictures late tonight.
    I’m offering it here for a week or two before I post it elsewhere.
    US$ 5,5000 OBRO.

    I know I will. It is, definitely, the wildest bike I've ever ridden. Totally and uncompromisingly a race bike.

    Why couldn't I have been born rich instead of so damn good looking?

    I am proof you don't have to choose since I am good looking, well endowed, rich, smart, and modest.

    Obviously you had no choice and wound up you...

    Good luck on the sale. The real answer is more track days though

    I am the sum of all my choices, good or bad.

    More track days would be great, but since I'm planning on adding school to my already loaded schedule, that seems very doubtful for the next couple years.

    I'll get better ones tomorrow, if I get home during the daylight hours. Why are you asking? Are you interested? You seem to be buying every bike in sight lately...

    Im bumping your ad, giving it maximum exposure...for free!

    But yes, I am on a bike buying frenzy...however since I could not see yours, I am not compelled to purchase it

    Im just kidding
    Its a fine machine in immaculate condition, Seamus even touched it when you were loading up, that might be another selling point for some?

    I'm showing that even a below-average-rider can ride fast on this bike, and look even faster.

    Well, thanks. Bump away!!! For some reason I'm only making a half a$$ed effort to sale it, aren't I?

    If you check the picture of the rear fender, you'll see where Seamus applied so much pressure, the plastic melted and the red is coming up through the decals... .

    Since I've helped you fold that tent, how much for me? I'm also willing to take it as is, with only 8 PSI in the tires, how much?

    For you, I'll sale it for CAN$5395.00 today, and I'll throw in an aluminum stand, original set of tools, owners manual, two keys, 2 quarts of oil, and 22 additional pounds per square inch of air in each tire.
    I'll even deliver it half way.

    Last time I saw a GSA pulling a wheelie didn't end very happily. I saw it in some magazine. The swing arm, shaft, whatever it's called broke in half.

    They're 1.2 liters.

    And they're more than happy to wheelie, if you catch it just right, the stability control will hold the front wheel 8 inches or so off the ground for all of first, no manual feathering needed.
