Aprilia SXV 550 at Eagles Canyon Raceway

Ted Phillips runs the AF1 Racing #6 Aprilia SXV 550 at Eagles Canyon Raceway in Decatur, Texas. Starting from the last row he runs it up into 3rd Place before suffering a race ending mistake. Just a friendly service reminder: always check your brake pads before a race!

You there kicking asses to supersports with a motard... I guess some of those guys got depressed :) So awesome!!!

[@joesardullo7978]

Absolutely awesome!!!! I definitely respect it

[@n7hevn]

Great clip, I am hitting my first RideSmart day at ECR next weekend (8/22/10), and needed some visuals on the track! GREAT save at the end!!! The brakes on that bike are MONSTEROUS!

[@georgemaniat7224]

I don't know if it's the bad camera, but this doesn't sound like an sxv. Still sounds amazing

[@palupa0079]

great one i have sxv 450 love to go for track soon :)

[@MrLuigiFercotti]

Nice to see that supermoto off-road capability came in handy. ;-)

[@elsunn]

I've been looking for a light-weight sumo that can hang with the 600's in the twisties, I think I found it! Quick questions: any mods, how's the engine braking differ from a regular engine (this is a v-twin correct), & I hear different things about the maintenance, how often do you need to crack the engine and check the values etc.? Nice ride, thanks.

[@BigCarKilla]

No doubt the bike aint bad, but i can see it being more the rider in this case. Well done mate, great ride.

[@harveypitnik]

so much better under braking than the other bikes.

[@SmaltSmor]

AWSOME , but sad ending :(

[@Johnnyboiyy]

This showed that super moto are just as fast true proof

[@TimSauers]

The kid at 1:14 that passes on the outside is freaking awesome I have watched him for a couple of years now and is a candidate for the motogp red bull rookies cup. I don't know his first name but his last name is Blevins watch out for him he is friends with peter lenz the next great american racer look him up here on you tube. He was spotted by colin edwards sr. a few years ago. Good company to be in

[@thomaskawaxxx]

does it have an powercommander? and how manny hp is hase with it ?? thanks

[@jaxxon911]

I run my SXV 550 at Roadracing tracks as well... Did you notice as you pick up the pace, you start to lose the front and it ultimately limits corner speed? Maybe it's my set up and the Michey Power-ones I'm running... I can't seem to get enough heat in them -Gonna try Dunlap supermoto tires and scrap the power ones first...

[@tweepong69]

sxv550 i love you

[@nathanoberholzer3111]

Do you have a damper on yours ? because mine gets some scary head shake

[@Theloonytoons]

@tas9195 Sad to hear about peter.

[@juntjoonunya9216]

Why does it sound like a loud scooter with a 550cc v twin engine? Shouldn't it sound bigger?

[@thomaskawaxxx]

damn that sxv must run 140 mph!!

[@TimSauers]

I remembered the Kids name that I mentioned, It is connor blevins and Hated to hear about Peter. I saw and talked to him 2 weeks before at TWS .

[@ethanpotter2710]

Little lacking in power I'd say as any more and the front end would be sky high but under barracking that's amazing.!

[@kevinschrock9500]

They didn't tech your bike before the race?

[@blubblub123123]

Lower front tire pressure? Stiffen your fork maybe? Maybe some different tires idd.

[@EKevanEK]

im getting one :)

[@RaskVousSalue]

Every other bikes were sv650?

[@chrisdelacruz2192]

Are u riding supermoto style?

[@lorddragoono]

The rider should gas right after the apex and try to keep it in higher rpms

[@andyracer74]

that was realy awesome!!! but you pay for you mistake.......you got balls!!!

[@vampov]

tighten those corners up and you would have an entirely differently ending.

[@OtisENGINEuity]

dude, gopro or Sony Action cam, cheap and make good videos.. might want to invest in one.. my videos were shot with a Sony AS10.. less than $150

[@brandongoedhart]

indeed, looks like an old track in dire need of a good repaving...

[@skiripizzapony]

there's a black UFO in the sun

[@chess747]

What the fuck is that black thing in the sun, a UFO 🛸

[@tosgem]

Must be racing against slow bikes, ninja 300's I assume

[@Muschububu]

f!ck this bike is so great!

[@jeremyrullo]

wow........ fantastic
