|
|
Went to a local bike shop earlier in Thirsk.
I've traded my Derbi Senda in and i got £1000 for it
I was only expecting to get about £600 trade.
Anyway, i've got myself a lovely RS125 99 model (W reg)
Low mileage, full power and a recent engine rebuild.
Its not home yet but it should be either next week or the week after.
(i'm in no rush as i've still got the NS to blast around on)
Hope you all like it ____________________ Aprilia RSV Mille R Edwards Replica - Aprilia RS250 - Suzuki GSXR600 Supersport Race Bike

Your right, it is pretty much identical to your old one
As for insurance, i haven't got a quote for it yet. I will get one next week.
I think it could be an import as the speedo's main face is in KM's..unless they're all like this ____________________ Aprilia RSV Mille R Edwards Replica - Aprilia RS250 - Suzuki GSXR600 Supersport Race Bike |

Nice RS, looks like a very good example. Is it full power, also that's a good deal you got on the Derbi as most places usually bump you on trade prices. Should be alot more fun than the NS, go power valve go . ____________________

haha.. i've been told that its full power by both the dealership and one of the mechanics there. i'll have to wait and see if they're telling the truth
i was expecting them to say about £600 trade off the Derbi, in that case i would have told them where to put it. ____________________ Aprilia RSV Mille R Edwards Replica - Aprilia RS250 - Suzuki GSXR600 Supersport Race Bike |

finally got the RS today
i'm pleased with the bike and it runs perfect just well... its very slow lol
it wont rev over 8000rpm so it obviously doesn't have a working powervalve and it has the damn flat spot between 5000 and 6000rpm or wherever the hell it is
to make it even more "interesting", since its had a full engine rebuild, i need to run the sucker in! grrr angry me. As soon as i have 200 miles on the mile clock, i'll be getting a powervalve stuck in the side!
anyhoo, heres some fresh pics of my not so fast beast lol

well it wont rev higher than 8000rpm, thats half of what its top revs are. i ain't pushing it, i'm still getting used to the feel of yet another bike.
as for pic size, sorry about that. i forgot to change the settings on my cam before i took them and i cant be bothered to take anymore now (its all locked up and sleeping for the night) ____________________ Aprilia RSV Mille R Edwards Replica - Aprilia RS250 - Suzuki GSXR600 Supersport Race Bike |

the flat spot is a cdi restriction, it is removed by breaking some thing in there. more info n how to remove it can be found here https://www.navero.co.uk/rs125zone/rs125.htm
oh yeah, looks amazing i want one ____________________ ?It?s mercy, compassion, and forgiveness I lack?not rationality.? |
