I usually have to have a lie down after watching this.

My "dream bike" if I ever get off my 250 licence.
 Understand you there Zen...it's just a fucking awesome add for Aprilia... Bloody show offs! :S

I still bounce the idea of buying an earlier Confederate, like a Confederado. I do want one. If I move to Australia (which is likely in the next couple of years), I may buy one and slowly tweak it to be "me." As a daily there, I think I want a VStrom 1000. Ugly, but practical.

Just so you know, Perth has a/ the best employment prospects and b/ the highest per capita motorcycle population in the country.
And c/ the least traffic enforcement 
I am rather partial to the Harley 48
Though with a 9L fuel tank it is somewhat impractical.

If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.

That is a badass scoot, Zen. My only issue with it is that it is a Harley, and Harley has created the largest cult of roadgoing zombies ever.
I am very likely marrying a girl from Sydney, and her house is above Bondi, so that is where I'll be. I'll be headed that way in June for a month.

The VStrom is very popular here in Perth!  So you ARE coming to AUS?!  Perth does have THE biggest motorcycling community in Australia... good roads and not so bad police enforcement.
Excellent!

A two-up dream bike:
Definitely coming there this summer (winter), taking the girl and her little boy back to the States for another year of teaching, after which we will most likely return to live at Bondi.
