Anyone got a New RSV 1000R Factory ? Was thinking of buying one but wanted to know how owners felt on the performance of the bike.

Ultra-exotic, extremely high performance V-twin motorcycle that rocks on the race track but is a handful on the road. The Aprilia RSV1000R is not for the inexperienced. This updated bike appeared in November 2004 and is the base of the RSV1000R range %X96 in previous years the %X91R%X92 was a tricked up model and the %X91Mille%X92 was the entry level machine. Now...

The original discs warped after 3 years (no problem with that), the EBC prolights I replaced them with warped after a year. I do about 6000 miles a year, but it's a v-twin for god's sake so they don't exactly get used that hard. Can anyone recommend a long-lasting disc that fits? Thanks
