Aprilia SXV description

ATTENTION: NOT FOR STREET USE - RACE BIKE 
(You may be able to register in your state but that is for you to do the research)

Up for sale former factory race bike and RARE Aprilia VDB 450 1 of 2 bikes used and ridden by Ben Carlson himself in 2007 AMA Supermoto season.  According to their chief mechanic Amauri, Darryl Atkins and Carlson each had 2 bikes and swapped several motors at the time in order to race in both Supermoto Premier (450cc) and Supermoto Unlimited (550cc) classes. At the end of the season 2007, all motorcycles were sold by then Team owner and racer Darryl Atkins in order to make space for the 2008 season.

The only flaw the VDB 450 had was that it was too light for the class and was required to add weight to race.

Because the vehicle is a former race bike, it will be sold only with a "Bill of Sale" and documentations showing how bike was acquired to show paper trail. 

Please google for more information and also read in apriliaforum for more details.


You will note that within the few available world wide, most are "Replica" units sold to former racers that have been converted for racing.

Bike has a Full Silmoto underseat exhaust, Alpina 16.5" front  & 17" rear, Beringer Brake Rotor & Caliper front, etc.

The Japanese oddity to naming teams

Wed, 28 Jul 2010

Whenever the calendar shifts to a major Japanese race, such as the Suzuka 8hr, one of the more amusing things to do is glance down the team sheet This years highlight for me has to be team Moto Bum, with other stand outs including aprilia D.D.BOYS, Team Etching Factory Yamaha and MITO MOTO & e'freaks Honda. Looking back through the ages some of the great Japanese team names have been Burning Blood Racing Team, Dog Fight Racing and Team Moto Space amongst others.

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

Aprilia is going after Ducati‘s Multistrada big time with the new Caponord 1200. It’s taken the V-Twin from its Dorsoduro 1200 model and tuned it for touring perfection with torque in all the right places. The Caponord 1200 is comfortable with a not too high seat and very good ergonomics.
