Just £2500 will snare you some of the best twins from the late 90s. Owning a big v-twin superbike has never been so affordable - MCN put three bargain options to the test...

Cat's out t'bag...
The TLS is a good old-fashioned V-twin, ditto the RSV. Modern twins rev too high and have lost the instant grunt that they're famous for... Can't vouch for the Honda, cos it's not my cuppa. PS. don't give up your day jobs; sound and commentary was shite, although the videoing was top-notch. Stick to riding and writing. Mykel, sort out these amateurs!

I think they are trying to compare sugar with sour cream, the old TL is certainly gaining classic status, the Firestorm is not an SP1 and the RSV Mille is a race bike.
For me the Mille, when i get my legs stretched of course.

SPEAK UP!
Why dont you use your noddle and find somewhere a bit quiter when you are chin wagging , hardly rocket science, liked that you liked the aprilia as i have just bought a rsv r , think it will take a bit of getting used to after stuff like cbx 6s gs1000s etc but heres to the next nice day ,

V Twins, mmmmmmm.
Have to agree that the TLS is definitely a cult classic. I owned a sorted 138bhp one a long time ago and it was one bad MoFo. I now have an 03 RSVR and it is the shit!
Two great bikes!
