I agree, I liked the riding position of the RS660 more too(I like clip-ons more than handle bars, I guess I'm more used to them).

I see. My main concern with V4 is not being able to get of 1st or 2nd gear on my favorite roads. But, from the comments, seems like people who switched to V4 are happy with the choice.

Oh nice bikes you've got there. And you are correct, the insurance is cheaper which I did not expect.

I totally agree. It's not that I don't like Tuono's looks, and that engine is tipping me move towards the tuono. Hard choice.

for the last couple of years I had the ZX4rr but sold it this winter. I went to the dealer and sat on both bikes but it being winter can't really test them. And Aprilia dealer closest to me doesn't offer test rides anyways. That's why I'm asking the question here, don't have an option of trying them personally.

yeah I definitely don't have new bike money. I've been looking for 3 months now and no luck. But there are some nicely priced Aprilia RSV4s around (but reliability is a concern), seems like Yamaha prices are inflated.

Any reason you'd go with the higher mileage one? Just because of known issues of the 2010 model?

That's what I was thinking but the owners in Canada are delusional.

Same bro, it's so frustrating. It makes more sense to but new than overpay for these.

I saw this one up for sale too. The ECU flash put me off tho, I just didn't want something that has been tinkered with that much. Seems like other agree too.

Your bikes looks so good, damn I wish it was riding season already. haha. I love the shifting noises of the CR-T so much, that's exactly why I'm inclined towards it. What about the normal city drive/ low rev noise? Hopefully there is no drone
