2017 Aprilia RSV4 RF | Ride Review (OMG)

Aprilia RSV4 is one of my favorite all time motorcycles, I've never had the pleasure of riding one before & was worried it would not live up to my expectations.. That just changed as I got the keys to the new 2017 RF model, yippee!!
God dam it is indeed something special!
Massive thanks to www.cmwmotorcyc... for the loan of the bike!

Just had a go on a 2019 RSV4 RR and I am absolutely in love! It may not have the Ohlins like this RF but it has everything else and the dealer will give it to me for $17k otd! I love my little 2013 Ninja 636 but it’s time for an upgrade!!

[@adamstratford6740]

MegaTechpc hi buddy did you get your RSV4 RR as ive just brought one myself

[@MegaTechpc]

@@adamstratford6740 Sure did, though I found a leftover 2018 instead for just $15k otd! Will be posting the reveal on my channel soon!

[@adamstratford6740]

MegaTechpc congratulations bro there awesome bikes ain’t they I’m in love with mine 😍 kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqnEcqRqp65mjNk I’ll be doing a proper walk around of mine once the weather cheers up a little here in the uk 🇬🇧 subbed you dude looks like my kinda channel you have there 👍🏻

[@CyberGasty]

I took for a test ride that bike yesterday.... what a bike.... speechless... Definitely I would loose my license in a one week time. So compliant, so smooth, but crazy fast...when you ride it is like the time is passing slower while you are on the bike although doing 200km/hour... you feel that you have enough time to do anything and to stop it if need be even on short distances at crazy speeds....

[@JaretCampisi]

Very solid review man. Really enjoyed it. I've ridden the 2016 model and I can't wait to get my hands on the 2017...definitely in the running for my next bike.

[@LambChopRides]

+Jaret Campisi cheers buddy, yes the RSV4 shouldn't be overlooked! I'm so tempted with one now!!

[@saisr1]

You still have one of my favorite tuono reviews. Came by to get my V4 fix and saw this new gem. Should be back on my Tuono in less than 4 weeks so thanks for the video. It's holding me over well.

[@LambChopRides]

+saisr1 haha cheers man, I'm in love with Aprilia at the moment I can't decide between the Tuono and RSV.. just need 20k haha

[@djnikimatteomatteo9291]

Chops I really want to thank you for this review I must have watched this a gazillion times I recently just picked up the rsv4 RF it is everything you said it was and more I love all your commentary it sounds like you had a great time testing it thanks again for being as detailed as possible when reviewing this bike it definitely made me purchasing this beautiful machine that much easier God bless Godspeed

[@LambChopRides]

Ah your the one Niki :-) Hope you watched the other videos I did on the RSV4 when I had one for a week. Its a truly amazing bike and the best sports bike out there. I couldn't have one as almost killed myself on it multiple times as its just begs you to go fast hehe. Enjoy it you lucky devil, Im very jealous

[@sk2283]

Great review LCR, what others fail to portray is the emotion & feeling when you ride, you nailed it here. When a bike makes you laugh & scream inside your lid there is no better advert. I just ordered one yesterday - can't wait !

[@LambChopRides]

+Simon Konetsky now I'm jelious haha, congrats mate it bloody awesome!!

[@sk2283]

Picked mine up today ........ everything feels like its been given 'more' on the new one :-) love it love it !

[@Jonathan-L]

15 minutes of riding and no bug splatter on the camera. Amazing.

[@thomas0086]

😂 within the first 15 minutes of ownership I would be making BBC headlines.

[@LambChopRides]

+Thomas Estwick haha that's the main downside with this bike!!

[@mattrc5088]

Great video, really enjoyed that. I own a 16 RSV4RF and love it. What camera and microphone do you use fella and where do you mount them? Both the commentary and engine noise was awesome and really clear. Thanks

[@CyberGasty]

You said it: "It is so fast and so accessible". I had the same impression when I tested it.. so easy, even a beginner could ride it without problem before killing himself in a month or two... and for others it is true.. good buy to your license in a week time. The problem with the sport bikes of the new generation like RSV4 is you are not even aware how fast you are going... I just open the throttle and I am at 200km/h... while with roadster like Tuono... you still have some sense of speed, which keeps your license in your pocket, although you crank it from time to time. :)

[@LambChopRides]

+Cyber Gasty absolutely correct Cyber I agree with everything you've said 👍

[@Shimmoda]

Wow I didn't know you could hook an app to it maybe I'll upgrade in a few years lol Glad you could test it out it's such an exciting bike

[@praveenps46]

The Muscle Biker you should also give a test ride 👍👍

[@LambChopRides]

+The Muscle Biker I can see why you love yours, it's a very special bike even without all the electronics stuff. One day might have to have one.... 😀

[@martybartfast]

I was excited by the excitedness of your excitement! 🏍️

[@LambChopRides]

+Martybartfast it was exciting 😁😁

[@FULLFACEVLOGS]

Basicly

[@ArronYZF]

'thats more torque than me' love it haha! , the tft display looks awesome compared to the analogue dash of the earlier models , keep up the great work!

[@LambChopRides]

+ArronTV thanks Arron, yeah loved the tft real easy to read too

[@jamest5149]

You should buy a RSV4 as a project bike some time Chops… just got my 2019 RSV4 1100 factory… so pleased. Would love to see what the Chops would do for bling and tuning. 👍

[@CNCycle]

I love that bike. You can't beat the sound of the V4

[@LambChopRides]

+CNCycle I know absolutely incredible!!

[@thomassmith7608]

I love the V-four grunt, and this motorcycle would be wonderful for someone who has a load of money and thus can afford two sports bikes, this one being strictly for kicks and for running from police. ;) Alas, I must be more practical, since a motorcycle is my everyday driver. I'm still pining for a new Honda VFR: one with much more horsepower, more displacement, no faulty driveshaft, and no V-TEC. In the meantime, I can fantasize about a lottery win and a garage full of beastly motorcycles, including an RSV4. lol ...Instead, I'll likely end-up buying a left-over, pandemic-surviving, base model 2018 FireBlade CBR 1000RR. Thanks for the review.

[@1275porsche]

What a beast !..Imagine what it would be like with a full Akrapovic system.. Great review..

[@LambChopRides]

+mark h cheers Mark! Yeah would love to try one

[@SteveC-Shaman]

Not a lot more, just a bit more torque throughout the rev range and a few horsepower on top. The stock headers and collector are very good, a slip-on is all that is needed along with race ECU to make good power. Beyond that, you'd want to be a racer to get the last dregs of power out of everything.

[@pointblankracer6274]

Great review Mr chop, this review convinced me to go get me one.... picking up Monday, got SC Project slip on to attach. thanks Lamb.

[@LambChopRides]

+PointBlank Racer it's an amazing bike isn't it! I have one on loan from Aprilia next week so going to be lots more vids coming 😍😍 enjoy it you lucky devil!

[@pointblankracer6274]

Yea can't wait to try it... got some awesome roads here in Wales, won't be able to sleep till Monday. Great news with the dealership offers for the loan bikes for reviews, also that ya decided to keep Beastie, you totally deserve dealer support.. You help sell bikes .. I am proof of that. Look forward to your reviews.. You nearly got me buying that 1290 Super Duke... so many Bikes arghhhhh.

[@LambChopRides]

+PointBlank Racer haha, well your going to love the RSV4, I have the Tuono this week and if I wasn't collecting the RSV4 when I take it back I would be truly gutted 😎😎 I love these Aprilia's that engine is a masterpiece 😍😍

[@Ivan-cz1ql]

You are making some of the best reviews.Good riding, great quality of the video, knowledge of the machines. All of that well packed together. Great work!

[@jupiter22177]

Another great review! You're one of my favorite reviewers. I am so sick of researching and looking at fricken bikes - i am getting exhausted. but the dust has settled and this is the bike i am buying.

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks mate, can't go wrong this thing is incredible 😍😍

[@knottstilting]

Awesome video, speed/sound & insanity level transfers transfers well. This bike just seems insane, wish I had the $$$/skill/experience and opportunity to ride one. Bang on, great video mate.

[@LambChopRides]

+Carson Chase thanks Chase 👍

[@JohSno]

Love your addictive enthusiasm.

[@TheKphreak]

Thanks for the upload! Super excited I bought one and have literally been waiting by the phone to go pick it up! 😬😎🏍👌🏻

[@Filip_Phreriks]

Doug Weiss I am just as happy for you as I am jealous of you ;-)

[@LambChopRides]

+Doug Weiss you lucky git!! Bet you cannot wait!!

[@TheKphreak]

Lamb Chop Rides went in to go buy a bike back in December and the convinced me that I really should wait for the 2017. It's been a really really long 4 months. it was made a little easier by living in California USA where for whatever reason it has not stopped raining this year. 🙄

[@mariolombardi348]

AS italian i0m so proud of this bike,nice shot.

[@egbk2069]

Subbed. Brilliant review. Loved your honest non sycophantic review of the 17 blade as well. What road are you on (at the point you turned the bike round and came back)?

[@phillipadams5931]

Another great review Chops, I bought a 2016 Tuono, partially because of your review of that one and I'm still alive, amazingly I still have my license as well. I was thinking of trading it for a Multistrada to get something with longer legs until I rode that, almost put me to sleep! I'm afraid I'm now V4 for life, like a good drug!

[@LambChopRides]

+Phillip Adams haha, trying the factory this week I hope!! But 16k it's out of my price range but I know I'm going to love it 😍😍😍

[@phillipadams5931]

Your Aprilia prices are confiscatory. Over here the Factory lists for roughly £13200 and the Super Duke R is £14000.

[@LambChopRides]

+Rob Sharp I think I'm getting a new Tuono Rob! Have the review coming soon and loved it!

[@Enonymouse_]

The brand spanking new RSV4 is just insane! The TFT screen makes it even better.

[@one-of-us9939]

Hey bro, I gave this a thumb cuz you said what I said after my first ride... Exactly what I said! But, it ain't no dream bike. It's better... this bike is my bike.

[@cstephenson9223]

Gotta love a v4😆 love the v4 in my 2014 Honda interceptor 800 with a slip on and quickshifter!

[@PontyclunchiropractorUkDrChris]

Great review, can’t make up my mind between this or the tuono factory 🧐 What camera have you filmed this on the quality is amazing!

[@tristanmiller5215]

The tone of the engine sounds like a NASCAR at full tilt. Wicked

[@jon...6825]

I want one. Lucky man and good luck with your new bike. Jon from Ireland Dublin...

[@nathanreynolds9589]

The little Gems Chops comes out with "someones had a whoopsy" made me chuckle.

[@sk2283]

hi, love the review - you have that special feeling riding an RSV4 - I have a 2013 ABS (had a 2010 before) and thinking of getting an RF - but in the back of my mind I am holding a candle for an MV F3 800 ........ just wanted to hear your thoughts / comparison between the 2, I know they are both fast enough..... all modern sports bikes are, but which one feels more special ? I also have a Daytona 675R and love the triple engine feel, but I also love the V4 ... as I've got older (mid 40's now) I am more into the character & whole package rather than just speed. cheers

[@SteveC-Shaman]

The F3 is an awesome bike but.... MV has been having very hard financial times and personally I would be concerned about getting support for it. A good friend of mine bought a F4 last year and went through hell to keep it running - sold it at a big loss in a fit of anger and got a R1. Also a good bike, but the RSV4 just has... something. His R1 tuned and piped won't outrun my RF dead stock, fwiw. The RF reels it in slowly if he gets the jump.

[@HeroRR]

I am so jealous you get to ride all these bikes. Nice work!

[@kamalendubanerjee2143]

HEROrr when are you doing a first ride of this beautiful

[@VeeFour]

I've ridden the previous iteration of the RF and it was majestic, so I can only imagine that this one is even better. If you liked it then you'll probably like the R1, as it feels very similar but is much more reasonably priced

[@LambChopRides]

+VeeFour yes trying the R1 soon, think I'm going to like it! Bit of something extra with the crossplain crank configuration

[@SteveC-Shaman]

Here in Canada, the R1 is only slightly cheaper and the R1M is quite a bit more. The RR is cheaper than either and really is plenty good for road use - the RF has true pro-level racing suspension on it and the wheels are very light but still durable enough for road use. You do get something for that money, whether it's important to you or not is the question. Most other bikes require suspension replacement or rebuilding for racing purposes, the RF might need a spring and at worst, a valve shim if you go up or down a couple of spring sizes.

[@iforyou1004]

So r1m and rf ...who is better? I'm confused.

[@VeeFour]

葉詠麟 it's all down to personal taste as they're both superb

[@evantan2808]

OMG! beautiful and gorgeous RSV4...I like both RSV4 and Tuono!! how do I even choose between them?

[@LambChopRides]

+Tan Boon Ping yeah though choice!!

[@evantan2808]

seriously..1 of toughest choice in life..hahaha..btw..you have the chance to ride both of them..did you find that the tuono have much better low to midrange torque? does that give you more fun when you are riding in tight twisties road?

[@LambChopRides]

+Tan Boon Ping yes as a road bike the tuono is king between the two. Better bottom end manors also 👍

[@evantan2808]

Thank you for the reply!! Appreciate it!

[@Brianbaker3]

So true. I've been riding my 2016 S1000RR for about a month now and cruising speed is around 90-100mph bike just feels so comfy and calm there that you'd never know how fast your going aside from traffic turning into ants in the mirrors. That aside, if you pick your battles you'll never lose your license. Passed a highway patrol today going 170mph... might have pursued me had they not been on their phone. Lol

[@daveodo4315]

That bike sounds absolutely amazing when it starts to rev up

[@Dogdog352]

Wow mate what a top review! please buy it!

[@LickyDischarge]

I have the opportunity to buy one of these 2017 models with low mileage and in amazing condition for around 10k. Is it still a good buy in 2022 compared to the current machinery available?

[@franklinwilkerson2061]

Yes it is! Especially the RF and Factory versions.

[@Blipthethrottle726r]

Did you get it? I’m debating between this and an s1000rr gen3

[@LickyDischarge]

@@Blipthethrottle726r yes and I still have it now. I do absolutely love it, but it’s a tricky bike to ride smoothly and man does it run hot! It certainly doesn’t like sitting in any traffic. But the power of that V4 is worth it’s minor niggles.

[@blueghostrider2]

How many kilometers you have, any problems with bike? I’m gonna to buy 2015 rf with 21k km

[@nikokom6628]

@@blueghostrider2 look for high stress mileage. The RSV4 got a tracker for high rpm kilometers. Somewhere in the 20k km you should look for valve play or if the ssservice is done. In general I can recommend my RSV-RR. No issues so far, but it is not an easy bike, up and downshifts you have to kick it harder than on modern bikes. Throttle, gears etc is different from the newer ones. If you like a bike to handle, the bike demans the biker but makess a lot of fun! If the RF iss in good condition you can think about it. Do not forget what the colleague before told you. This bike gets super hot in traffic

[@woodymt-1012]

It's the V4 thing dude, go on and do it.......you know you want too!

[@LambChopRides]

+Woody Zexxer12/Tuono yeah I'm certainly feeling it!

[@CodeNameABK]

Open throttle downshifts, man that is fun! :D And those flickering lights near console looks brilliant!

[@LambChopRides]

+CodeNameABK yes it's the blipper which impressed the most loved it 😍😍😍😀😀

[@SolivG]

Chops I've watched all your RSV reviews......several times! The best on youtube! I took a test ride on one of these after watching your reviews having tested a few of the other 2017 litre bikes. I'm glad I did as this bike wasn't even on my radar before (crazy I know). This hands down the most entertaining litre bike to ride! Check out Wheels in Peterborough. They're doing these for 16,295 pre reg (reg June/July 2017). That's 3700 off list! Not necessarily looking to plug Wheels motorcycles at all but just letting you know there are some good deals out there on this bike. Keep up the great reviews!

[@LambChopRides]

Thanks Solivg, wow thats quite some deal!! Did you buy one?

[@SolivG]

Thanks for the reply Chops. Yeah I did! But annoyingly I bought mine just before they dropped the price by a further 700 quid. Win some lose some I guess but still overall very happy. What a machine!

[@LambChopRides]

+SolivG oh well still a bargain! Enjoy it very jealous 😎😎

[@SolivG]

thanks Chops. the winter is going to seem exceptionally long this year !

[@carnafillian113]

You sir are living my dream

[@JustinWelchUK]

Hi LC, love your vids! Any chance you could do (if you haven't already done?) a Triumph Thruxton R test ride?

[@emacemacii]

Shouldn't mock it mate. Cruise control is fabulously useful for supersport with aggressive riding position. Very few people are lucky enough to live close to their favorite mountain pass or track. Often time the boring highway leg will wear the rider out and having cruise control can greatly reduce that fatigue since the rider can alter posture and rest their arm for longer and safer that those crampbuster/throttle lock contraptions can provide.

[@LambChopRides]

Agreed, it's just such a focused speed weapon it seemed out of place! But very handy all the same

[@simz_6r]

My dream bike.. looks and sound 🔥

[@LambChopRides]

+jeison360f1 I know it's certainly an amazing engine configuration!

[@hubert1142]

@2:20 you said exactly what I was thinking :D Great review of an awesome bike. 20k is not that much but is it 10k more fun than e.g. MT10(ye I know it's a completely different animal and class, but anyway)? Also, the exhaust sounds much better than it looks but that's nothing that cannot be rectified. Keep up the good work man.

[@LambChopRides]

+Hubert Baron yeah MT10 is a great road bike and makes more sense than this too plus is allmost half the price! I guess it all depends on how deep your pockets are at the end of the day. This is something special but twice the fun.... tough one haha

The most impressive thing about this bike is that the speedometer updates instantly rather than updating every 3/4 - 1 second like most bikes!

[@LambChopRides]

+carnafillian113 yes I like that too!

[@HippoDrones]

Fantastic review Lamby, oh for a spare £20k.... is the Tuono new this year too with the same engine?

[@LambChopRides]

+Hippo-Drones good question not sure if the tuono has the same dash etc... it has a 1100 cc engine more torque but "only" 175 bhp haha... Im so fricking tempted!!!

[@HippoDrones]

puny 175 bhp??? what is the point? ;-) lol.... only 125bhp more than my current steed! :D I've always liked the idea of a Tuono, but after my Ducati Streetfighter 1098 S fiasco I am loathed to spend mega money on exotica again!

[@LambChopRides]

+Hippo-Drones yeah that is the worry with these Italian beauties... looking at secondhand ones on ebay right now 😣😣😣

[@HippoDrones]

wanna buy a Ducati? lol.... not the Streetfighter, I traded that in for my Guzzi. Am selling a rather lovely Sport Classic Biposto however.... don't think it is your styleee though as you do seem to like the modern tech stuff (who can blame you as it is bloomin marvelous) :D

Tuono has more torque than the RSV. Better road bike IMO and still an awesome track bike.

+tHaH4x0r haha yeah just didn't have time to go in to the menu and try and work all that shit tbh. Only had an hour with it 😣

[@Filip_Phreriks]

Does it feel like its running lean because of Euro 4? Imagine the sound with an aftermarket exhaust without the Euro 4 crap. Might free up the top end too and shed some weight.

[@LambChopRides]

+NITROLLATOR yes I would love to ride one with an aftermarket exhaust! The fueling was the best I've tried didn't even think to look for modes and all that crap to improve it... very well fueled considering its euro4

[@shellmeister949]

"We have a tight one" brilliant man!

[@BurningBroadcast]

Love the videos, you should see if you can have a go on the Tuono as well. Have a similar comparison to the GSX-R and GSX-S you did. See if the same rules apply in the ludicrous segment :)

[@LambChopRides]

Yes the dealer just has the Factory Tuono in as a demo bike now! Im a little scared to try it though as might like it too much!!

[@BurningBroadcast]

BMW S1000R always used to be my dream bike, but after seeing the Tuono in person I'd say that takes the cake for me. But the price though, eye watering. Anyhow I just started riding, get my first bike friday so any of those bikes (or any of the ones you ride) are a looong way off haha.

[@christmg4682]

I see this bike, I click. Take my life and give this one to me I wouldn't mind.

[@Peskarik]

Were there any low speed issues on the RSV4? I believe Tuono 1100 is not nice to ride below 30mph. Also, did you test the 2016 bike? That would be interesting, because they can be bought for much less than 2017 RSV4.

[@Peskarik]

Yes, no liter bike really likes going slow. Even the Japanese, you feel they are unhappy, but they suck it up and behave exemplary. Panigale 1299, instead, just tortures you. I wonder what behaviour RSV4RF has...

[@Peskarik]

What kind of tires do you have? My Daytona 675 eats front Supercorsa SP in 1500-2000 miles (I only ride mountain hairpins on this bike, so lots of downhill trail braking, I lose the sides of front tires real quick and I've been fined already for bold front tire by police once).

Learn more about motorcycle mechanics, it's not easy, but when you get it you are going to be very enthusiastic.

[@metalheadvlogs]

I was supposed to ride one of these last year, but sort of overslept so only managed to get on the Tuono (which is still a fantastic bike)... I still need to have a ride on one of these though, seems like a very fun ride :-)

+metalhead18241 get a test ride sorted out it won't disappoint! I love the Tuono too and could be a potential purchase one day..

[@metalheadvlogs]

Really surprised to see it still has a cable operated clutch

BMW S1000RR easy to ride, GSXR1000 easy to ride, RSV4 not easy to ride because it's so insane and requires 100mph plus to make it work, only experienced riders should ride, buy it if you do track days, don't buy it for the road unless you want to lose your licence or die, spot on review from chops. Tuono is the one I would go for if you ride more on the road than track

[@Peskarik]

You need to test ride the 2016 version, because I am curious what you would say. :-)

[@Freddie206]

After riding almost every 1000cc category superbike (except RC8) I can say that my favorite was and will be Aprilia The sound,the ride,everything on this bike is damn good.You might find it little smaller compared to Jap 1000cc bikes But you have to keep in mind that this bike is based on track superbike,they just made it road legal and detuned... But once you find your spot,hold tight...

[@ChrisMcEvoy72]

Great vid! Did you tell them they needed to fit a new gearbox when you dropped it back off to them? All that downshift blipping! Downshift Blip Porn - could become a thing... :D

[@LambChopRides]

+MadMac haha 😂😂😂 it's porn indeed, rode the new SP blade today with blipper also 👍👍

[@ChrisMcEvoy72]

Yes! Was hoping you'd be doing a review of the new blade. I look forward to another Downshift Blip Porn vid soon then. Might make me trade in my current blade for one... :)

[@Dan-vq1dr]

chop sir, would you choose a 2017 rsv4 or a 2017 gsxr 1000r? could you xplain briefly why u would do so?

[@TremourSphereUK]

[@LambChopRides]

+TremourSphere haha thanks matey 👍👍

[@treborhugh7599]

[@mdelahoussaye25]

Awesome review as usual!

[@LambChopRides]

Cheers Matt!

[@comfysofa1549]

And that. Is why I still own mine 5 years later.... Nothing beats a v4!

[@LambChopRides]

+Comfy Sofa yep your right bloody amazing! Been thinking how I can fit one in Beasty. .. 😂😂

[@comfysofa1549]

Get an old pre aprc one like mine....full system, no electronics, flashed ecu 180bhp - you wanna live dangerously....thats how to do it.!

[@LambChopRides]

haha I bet!! Its one bike I would like electronics on a the power is so linier think it could catch you out!

[@comfysofa1549]

Yeah - electronics would be nice but id have to chop mine in then pay another 12k for (some would say) the same bike...i know its not but it kinda is...

[@LambChopRides]

Yep know what your saying, not worth 12k just for some electronics that for sure!!

[@glenwhyte2273]

wow ! what a machine and another great video. .. only criticism would be the lack of helicopter footage !!! Haha ;^)

[@LambChopRides]

+Glen Whyte haha thanks Glen, yeah no budget to hire the chopper again 😂😂

[@devjones]

yes I am going to test ride this :)

[@ElliotDuke]

Hey! Where abouts is this road? Moving to Hampshire next week, is it in the area? Thanks :)

[@soham_geek]

Camera quality is insane !

[@SpeedJ0nez]

Most fun you can have with your clothes on! Thanks for the vid!

[@LambChopRides]

+SpeedJ0nez without a doubt!!

[@CurtisL8.3066]

LCR, I'm assuming you liked the bike? You weren't too clear in your review....

[@LambChopRides]

haha, nah it was ok... :-)

[@GravityContentCreator]

Just from the video that bike has some serious top speed!

[@oliver8451]

What about the Sound of the 2017 Euro4 model...? Is it still that damn loud?

[@rsokil538]

not looking for too much electronics. is there much difference between 16 and 17

[@d4rkh0r5e4]

Is there any chance you could get your hands on the 2018 RSV4 RR? i would be interested in a comparison between the RR and the RF?

[@LambChopRides]

Yes I plan to borrow one layer in the year 👍

[@d4rkh0r5e4]

Great! I look forward that. Great reviews Thanks.

[@newpuppy21]

Italy has got its shit together 🚀👀

[@UnknownProdrive]

Space Dad 999 Since they hung Mussolini they haven't been doing too bad. Before that forget it, they spent too much time with the Germans! This bike and the Tuono are fuckin awesome.

[@LambChopRides]

+Space Dad 999 they certainly do sir!

[@LambChopRides]

+Sleepingdragon 1 haha 👍👍
