Contrary to what many may believe this isn’t my first Aprilia, It’s not even my second! lol But it will be the first one that I’m going to do some rather fun things with project wise. I expect a lot of fun knowledge to be explored with this bike.
Initially Ed picked it up as sort of a parts bike the two of us would share. I thought well I might as well pick up the missing parts and make it a runner. Then I'd have mare RS wrenching experience, and another loaner for GPR Camp this year.
The previous owner had planed to create an abomination by cramming a four stroke in there. Thankfully he lost interest, and decided to send it on it’s way. I found it on Craig’s and promptly told Ed about it. He called the guy up and made arrangements to pick it up. That got it to San Francisco.
