    DON'T BUY IT NEW. The only advantage is the warranty which is probably worth more than the bike when you ook at the prices of Aprilia spares.

    Get your insurance from lexham or Ebike and buy yourself a decent lock to bring your quote downa little, as well as keeping your precious ba ba safe.
