The CW cover pic is the best I've ever seen of the RSV4. Almost looks normal when everything is at 45 degrees.

I think the stock exhaust looks fine. Granted it's big, but at least it's dark.

This bike sounds like it's totally bad ass. The CW article was pretty good.

I like it but if I was considering that type of a bike I would probably get a Duc 1198 instead.

Well, Aprilia tend to be geared towards the more discerned riders...

Yeah well I'd have to ride them both since I've only ridden a Duc and really like the looks of the Duc better and have always liked them since the 916 came out.

I didn't say anything negative about the Aprilia...just that I lean more toward the Duc for MY $$.

Ducati's solid-colored paint jobs are boring IMO

Not to me but that's why they have different styles...for people with different opinions/taste.
