A Mille twin sounds like a 'focused' bike, something I aint ever owned (ridden mates GSCBZXYZ-RRS fa short periods) but 'the right price' + Superbike conversion..........

I've owned 3 RSV-R's (2001 to 2003 models) and covered about 15,000 miles on them in total.

They are very tall, not particularly light, not particularly powerful (about 110bhp at the back wheel as standard), not particularly reliable (I had more problems in 15k miles on the Aprilia's than I did in 100k miles on various Ducati 748/916's I've owned) and design/build quality leaves somewhat to be desired (think a big 1000cc scooter).

I'd not spend more than £1,500 on an old shape non R and no more than £2,500 on an R.

Did 6,000 on mu gen 2.
once the dirty stale petrol was sorted it never let me down come rain or shine.
It did cost more than a curvey though???
