Default GSX-R 600 K6 or 2005 Aprilia RSV-R

Two years no claim bonus is coming next month. And thinking about changing for a new bike. Supersport IL4 or V-twin superbike? Similar price and insurance. What is Your opinion? Still love V-twin noise

That's a hard choice. If I was in a position to change the bike it would be between as GSXR 750 and Aprila RSV-R. You need to ride them both but as I currently own a GSXR600 K2 I'd be very tempted by the RSV

Of those 2, I'd have the RSV-R. But I'm a tart.

Blag a test-ride of both, and use that to make up your mind. Find an accomodating dealer that will allow you to do them back-to-back, and use the same roads/course to compare.

I'm a twin person myself, so my choice would be the Aprilia

He said it was the same as the GSX-R, and I've only got 1 year's no claims on that I think if you're over 25 with 2 years no claims it's probably not that expensive considering.
