Reader ride! 1997 Aprilia RS250!

I've actually seen a few of these stateside that were street legal. I don't often get envious but this might get me there. Congratulations on finally landing you dream ride. What a great bike!

Dear Badass 2 stroke motorcycles,
Wow just run through your blog, I consider myself a 2stroke lover. I always believe 2stroke is the most ideal engine for a sportbike. I think MotoGP made a big mistake by banning the 2stroke to compete. They should have let the 2stroke to compete with what ever type off engine. Anyway I just recently owned an Aprilia RS250 1997 model. This has been my dream bike back then and now I own 1. Riding it takes some time to get use to as this thing has freakish power delivery at ultrahigh RPM.....but ones you get use to the power delivery you would enjoy the superlatively devastatingly fast riding you could ever have imagine. you can even take a very steep angle short corner without any brakes being applied from a very high speed. Of course your feet will be very-very busy changing the gears but it still fun doing it. Anyway this is my picture with I consider my 2nd wife.......she is 1 of my big extended family. Thank you.
