Re: Aprillia Tuareg 660
Aprilia has been in the game for decades actually. Since the 80's they used to be a major contender in P2D and other stuff around the world. I have owned a few over the years and they make a DAMN good motorcycle. The old Aprilia Climber was one of the earliest trials bike I rode back in the 90's. Another awesome bike that never caught much attention is the Cagiva Grand Canyon and the Elephant. Awesome ADV bikes that used a Ducati 900cc motor. I knew a guy that had one when I first moved to the east coast. Nice bike and that motor is perfect for ADV riding. My Ducati Scrambler uses a 800cc version of that motor and it was perfect when I rode it in the 2018 S500. torque for days-
Here's a cool video of a guy railing on a Cagiva

Re: Aprillia Tuareg 660
I did the Cagiva Elefants. We had a discussion about this just t few weeks ago. A young chap (of 32yrs) in our group had never hear of Cagiva or the Elefants. We had to give him a history lesson.
I'm attracted to odd:
There is a slick highly modified Benelli TreK on ADVR now. No racing or Dakar pedigree but DAMN its cool. https://advrider.com/f/threads/2008-ben ... s.1458791/
There was an Aprilia RXV for sale on CL not too long ago either.
