Now if you do want the Aprilia check the service schedule, if I remember rightly it needs serviced every 2nd week... Having said that it could be the 450 version of it that I'm thinking about, and its servicing is done on time not mileage.

Its a sexy little number though, and way more extreme than the DRZ...

Only person I know that got a DRZ put race cams in it ASAP to give it a little bit more poke... But he was the sort that put 17" wheels on a GS1200 so it would handle better.

IIRC that 'Prilla can be bought with a full warranty and more reasonable service intervals.

Unfortunately the manufacturer restricts the bhp to 30 summit.

I will admit the SXV's are very sexy. However the only use they have would be add a grill shelf and use it as a BBQ. They really are $hite to own and hundreds of £'s need to be spent to make them even remotedly useable on the road.

Buy one only if its going to be a garage ornament or if you can afford a rebuild after every ride.

The KTM 660 although a bit ancient/dated is an absolute animal to ride as well as being pretty robust providing it has been looked after. Easily updated too and sounds like hell trying to escape from an Akra can. They really do make your face hurt from the permanent grin trying to keep the front wheel on the tarmac. A bit of a superbike killer on the twisties. $hite on m/ways and long distance as the vibes make ya bowlax/ar$e and hands numb (not that you would want a SM for this type of work anyway)
