Aprilia SRV 850

[bulletz77]

Thkz every1 4 ur concern... Itz abit difficult 2 kick in e lemon law coz dey still doing e repair 4 me... But e unsatisfaction is e few problems within a stipulated time frame... Itz like u living in a scary world dunno when things gonna happen or breakdown when n wher...

Anyway after all e setback im happy 2 share e positive experience which is i juz came back from thailand trip wif my bikers fren diz morn... Quite a pleasant trip as im on par wif e big boyz... Cruising at 160kmh is superb... U don even realise itz oredy 170-180kmh w/o any stress feeling... Sumtimes it hitz 190kmh... We departed betong thai border at 1830hrs & reach JB new york hotel area at almost 0200hrs wif 1 long stop of supper at pagoh... In between is juz short stops top up, smoke, drink, go... Reserve light on at 215km at diz kind of constant speed... Anyway i hope no more probz will crop up & all beautiful experience will b forever & ever...

Hits & misses but glad to see its working out for you.
Italian product often gives minor problems from time to time even for Ferrari (from true account of my friend as a mech in agent).
But you be wondering why there are still people buying Alfa Romeo despite its poor resale value.

Valid point raised.

Most people believe that the choices they make result from a rational analysis of available alternatives. In reality, however, emotions greatly influence and, in many cases, even determine our decisions.

A Little Review.

Much has been said, and reviewed, of this "world's most powerful scooter" on the web but little has been shared by local riders. To begin with, there aren't many riding this gem on the road.

Weighing in at 249kg (dry weight), this maxi-scooter certainly reminds its owner of its presence. Needing extra amount of effort to swing it like a Honda Wave, the CG can be felt low on the machine, but otherwise its pretty stable at high speed 100-140kmh. That being said, you would be lucky to have noticed that the SRV hits 100kmh in a jiffy. My initial impressions were that this is simply not a scooter! The v-engine constantly reminding you that this is not your typical scooter/vespa.

For those intending to bring it for touring in Malaysia and beyond, i would highly recommend getting a bigger windshield. The CVT transmission is smooth. I hardly felt it changing gear.

ABS + ATC features are a bonus. Not neceesarily a deal-breaker but to me these could prove vital during certain riding conditions. ATC can be switched off, but ABS is not user-selectable. Then again, we are not going off-road with this bike, so i dont foresee a need to have the ABS switched off.

Storage space is not a plus point for this bike. Just one FF helmet under the seat. There is no glove compartment anywhere near the handlebar unlike the Tmax, C600/650 or Burg. I find the button to unlock the seat compartment to be a negative aspect of the bike though. As someone who usually do not handle-lock when parking, any Tom, **** or Harry can conveniently press that button and rummage through my underseat compartment. To prevent this, i will have to handle-lock my bike from now on whenever i park.

A deal-breaker, i thought, would be the warranty. It comes with 2-years, unlimited mileage warranty by Mah Pte Ltd. I believe BMW offers similar warranty, but Yamaha and Suzuki dont.

Brembo brakes, higher cc and hp, bigger front tyre shall be factors to consider when comparing with similar models of maxi-scooters. At about $22K with 1st party insurance, it is about similar pricing to other makes as well.

Fuel consumption... i dont really keep track, but its definitely not anywhere near a Pulsar.

I do not know what else to share about this bike. Any questions, feel free to ask.

Anybody has issues with the battery? Mine didn't last a year. Only have the IU and Zumo 660 cradle fixed. Recently fixed the Blackvue but with a voltage cut-off set at 12V.

Rides it daily on weekdays, but parked over the weekend. Only managed to last me around 7mths.

Handling?

Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Its not light for sure. But easy to handle as it comes with a bigger front tyre. The rest pretty much depends on u as a rider.

Thanx for e feedback. Coz reviews said that handling wise got a bit of problem to keep up w e Tmax. Or e BMW perhaps. Will consider now from Aprilia.

Tmax and the 650GT are good bikes as well. I do like the GT's electric windshield and large storage space. Do note that the SRV has very little storage space. Not even a glove compartment. One good feature i like about the SRV is the traction control. Got triggered a few times before in the rain.

Like you, these 3 bikes were those ive narrowed down about 8mths ago. Do make a wise choice. Whichever path you decide to take, i bet my last dollar that it is a choice you will nvr regret with any of these 3 brilliant bikes.
