New Member and New Bike! 2008 RSVR

[boxerboy]

Hi peeps new poster here

Put a deposit down on a 2008 RSVR today, my first litre bike and my first twin!, my previous bikes include rs50, rs125, zx6r and cbr600rr ive also got a wr426 supermoto as well, test ride a tuono the other day, loved the v twin power delivery and it went from there, glad i went for the faired option though.

Just a few questions about the RSVR really, the one ive put a deposit on is a 2008 with 360 miles, just wondered what the service intervals are?, whens the 1st service due and how much does it cost?

It comes with an Aprilia warranty, how long does this last?

and anything else i should look out for, its up for £5995 is this cheap for an RSVR? Ohlins, Brembos etc included.

Cheers

Nick

RSV4 soon, hence regular RSV Millies are utterly silly money at the mo, utter bargains abound.

The books will cover all the service details, The V60 Rotax aprilias tend to specify a big service not long after buying it from new, it'd probably be wise to ensure that that's been done, and if not, get the dealer to do it for you before you collect

If you haven't already, get on www.apriliaforum.com. It's probably the best resource going for these bikes.

Rang 2 aprilia dealers today, Maxmoto and Dave Berkshire and was told aprilia have recently changed the servicing details and that valve clearances dont need doing with the first 600 mile service, i also found out that the first service has to be done by aprilia to keep the warranty and the place i am buying the bike from is a honda dealer, i also rang them and they told me that they would get the first service done at an aprilia dealer local to them and get the book stamped up for me so either way im happy

First service will be free anyway wont it? Its usual to just pay for the parts, which should be the same at any dealer.

Nice bike, ,it still baffles me how anyone can buy a bike and sell it after 360 miles,it's madness but your the one who gets a good deal though.
