    not yet...our dealers are having the DD1200 and 2011 RSV4 traing at the Noale factory in these days

    outside is the same bike, just smaller can, and the TC sensors added.

    This would be bad news for dealers with left over 2010's.

    No, this is good news if you want a brand new 2010 at a discounted price...call Ed or Jon, or email...it can happen.

    God that bike is sexy TuonoAB. I've always loved the Bol d' Or. I wish they'd make one out of the RSV4. Pretty soon I may be able too help make that happen because I will getting a 24" vinyl cutter!

    Thank you Spektre76, I love the paint scheme, was blown away when I saw it in person (hadn't seen it till it arrived from Af1.) I saw someones interpretation of what an RSV4 would look like with the paint scheme, I am sure you have seen it. I would buy it to have the pair! http://www.apriliaforum.com/forums/s...d.php?t=204448 I am sure you could whip a set up, put them on top of the white RSV4. Getting bad thoughts!

    I will post some updated pics in the RSVR forums once I get my new rearsets and variobars on!

    ...it's always the case, every year, the old leftovers issue...

    Solution is very simple. If you can afford and be willing to spend the extra cash, buy the new MY. If you want to save a few bucks, by a leftover, but be aware about the ...future re-sale value. I know, some people want the leftover price together with the new MY re-sale value. It will not happen....
