Hey Alex,

 

Got one question for you.. Is it possible to put a rs250 display ( the 2 LCD screen one) onto the rs125? Are the speedo gears they use the same?

the new one or the old 250? if its the old one then its the same... if new one then cannot cos we using a sensor at the rear wheel.. maybe if u r able to fit one at yr wheel; then can but if i not wrong 125 tachcometer is driven by line too? the 250 one is using electronic one... wires....

i wun be too worried about the shocks if i were u... the less power the bike the lower performance the shock needs... just turn yr preload to harden yr rear so u wun have a lot of prob with soft wobbly shock... if u got enough then change to a better one... 125s can convert yr drivetrain to 428 size.... lighter so more responsive... cheaper too compared to 520 at the same standard...

actually not so true. The shock is very springy and quite scary as it rebounds up very quickly whenever it hits a bump and makes the bike very skittish.

Speaking of 2nd hand suits...a friend of mine is selling his....Frank Thomas Kevlar 2 piece suit, size 52, goin for $700 or best offer, any takers?

Is it a one piece suite or two piece suite ha?

[Axxis]

two piece.

Actually my friend got his from there for $450. Komini brand. Not bad at all but not ventilated leather so it's a little hot.

sure just add yr name to the list and yr name, contact no

PG certainly has enough bumps and suspension like that will almost certainly cause you to highside. With good suspension you won't notice it (the bumps) as much.

Great to see a growing interest in taking our bikes to track!

 

Maybe in pretty soon we can change our Aprilia Rider's Club (ARC) to Aprilia Racing Club (still ARC), when everyone who rides an Aprilia also goes track weekly. And when we eventually form a team, we'll be known as the Aprilia Racing Team (ART).

Woot.

 

ARC logo has been sent for sticker printing. As for the apparel, I understand that everyone's preference may vary, whether t-shirt or polo-T or G-string, so I think its best to let someone be in charge of this.

 

You may choose either T-shirt or polo-T, or both. At the moment I need the numbers and sizes. I'll check with the printing company for the best price, ie the minimum number of tee we have to order.

Alex,

 

I'm not sure wat you define by the 'new one'.. If i'm not wrong the 250s from 98 onwards used the double screen display up till the bike went out of production. When you say new one, are you talking abt the latest model of 250s?

 

Plus the sensor at the rear wheel is to measure the speed?

 

And are all 250s (new and old) driven by wires for the tachometer? or the newer ones?

Bro,

 

read my first post regarding this carefully.. I specifically stated that i was talking abt the double LCD display setup, not the analog meters.. No point putting in the analog ones for me wat.. since i already got analog also.. If i'm not wrong, only the 250s till 97 had the analog meters...

Lawrence,

 

Which logo did you select to go on with in the end? Also, before ordering the tshirt etc, would it be possible for you to get afew sample sizes from the company? Small, Medium, Large etc.

 

Then we can come down to Ntrust and try which fits us best before finalizing the size..

98 model on wards consider new ones...

 

the sensor at the rear is for speed

 

 

yes all are using wires for tachco so u might not be able to use....
