This I'll have you know is the private "reserve" area of the Aprilia Riders site, normally it's "invitation only" dontcha know?
Nice to see the place being used though. I reckon the idea of adding Falco bits to the RSV & Tuono could be a winner.............................................just can't think which bits mind

I could arrange for a Falco swingarm and stock shock, if you'd like to swap for your Tuono ones

Actually I'm in the process of mirror polishing a Gen2 RSVR / Tuono swinging arm at the mo..........It might be up for sale, I haven't decided yet. I know I'm gonna kick myself for refusing your offer, but I do have a spare shock and even though the standard Sachs Falco shock is a belter, I'll keep the Ohlins for the time being

I was considering sticking a KTM engine in my Lammy chop
A mate did it, apparently it absolutely flies..

Well Kwakz I have a spare excellent 640 supermoto motor with cdi/carb/pipes etc...but I think they sit too high for a lammy frame ...I know someone who tried it but settled for a drz 400, a lot more compact
Unless you mean fitting a 2smoke motor

I don't think it's just the lammy frame it might be too high for ......
