So I've spent the last 18 months building a VW Bus into a bar for my small business and I haven't touched a motorcycle. I've been saying that I'd wait to buy anything till the Aprilia 660 came out because I really want a midsize twin to put on the track and ride on the road a couple times a year. Then I saw the price tag and was like I'm all set I'll just buy another SV someday and say screw it.
I keep seeing the standard version of the bike around and they look like a blast then seeing these guys mod them to track bikes with big price tags and that turned me off. Then I see they dropped the R7 in June (I believe it was June of this year right?)
I've seen some of the first rides and youtube videos so I think they're for sale now. Does anybody have one? How do you like it?! Reviews seem like if you upgrade the suspension and brakes for track use its an awesome machine.

There's a thread on it here: Yamaha R7
Haven't seen anyone post about buying one just yet.
if yer interested in a project SV, let me know, I have a '99, engine out partially torn down, extra set of spare wheels, what it really needs besides an engine rebuild, is a better fork and rear shock, tank is rust & dent free, clean title
as much as I wanna turn it into a bobtail motard, I don't think it will ever happen
