Motorcycle USA is one of only two U.S. magazines to ride the 2010 Aprilia RSV4R Superbike...and they like it a lot.



"From the minute you fire the engine it screams pure unadulterated exhilaration—think Ducati Desmosedici. Motoring out from pitlane and onto the track reveals both how stout the engine’s bottom end power is as well as just how tall first gear is—another clue that this is first and foremost a racing motorcycle. Keep the throttle dialed to the stop and its engine gains speed voraciously in a similar fashion to a 600cc Inline-Four mated to a big V-Twin. In the lower gears the front end gets light yet the wheel always hovers close to the ground, proving the effects of its forward-biased weight distribution and longish 55.9-inch wheelbase. Power evolves seamlessly into a punchy mid-range that just keeps cranking more and more power."

Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word, equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.
