| The BMW also has an enclosed chain final drive but is it possible that the CVT uses a belt in the usual way ?? |

| Looks like Aprilia mated a Mana 850 with an RSV4. Not that that's a bad thing, but anyone needing or wanting the step-through ability of a scooter need not apply. Still, it does look pretty cool. I'll certainly take a look if they import it here.

| Come to think of it, Honda could've done the same thing instead of coming up with a whole new design for the "Integra." Take the DN-01 and put some scooterish plastic copied from a CBR or VFR onto it, being sure to include some actual storage space. Well, that, and drop the price six or seven grand... |

| well the price has been anounced for the aprilia srv850 in the uk £7,799 in showrooms sometime in february £299 pounds more than new honda integra and £1,294 pounds more than the silverwing it shows that manufacturers are increasing prices by at least £1000 on new models how do they justify these prices i would like to no the real cost to build these bikes and how much the profit is on each bike they are now the same price as a small car rant over will have to wait for a secondhand one  |
