Aprilia SRV850 – the most powerful scooter on the market

May 16th, 2012

Aprilia SRV850Last month UK Aprilia dealers were able to offer us the new Aprilia SRV850 maxi scooter. This is the most powerful scooter currently available, pumping out an amazing 76bhp from a V twin engine and a maximum torque of 76.5Nm at 6,000rpm. This is the same engine as found in the Aprilia Mana 850.The SRV850 is 5kg lighter than a Gilera GP800 and has a  double cradle frame made of steel trellis pipes with reinforcing and rigidity plates.The SRV850 has a coefficient of stability at full power similar to a motorcycle (1 rad/sec) and almost twice as high as a conventional scooter which means it can reach lean angles of 45°, with exceptional stability and extraordinary road holding.The line between motorcycles and scooters continues to blur, with motorcycle levels of performance now available in the maxi-scooter segment.Ride safe.Jon BoothEmail: webmaster@inter-bike.co.ukBlog: http://inter-bike.blogspot.com/Swicki: http://motorcycling-swicki.eurekster.com/

Anybody that has ever questioned the importance of racing helmets should take a step back and watch this video.The scene is the British Superstock 600, where riders Josh Wainwright and Johnny Bradshaw were involved in a ridiculous crash that could’ve been far worse than the injuries they sustained – if it weren’t for their helmets.In the 11th lap of the race, Wainwright lost control of his bike and as he stumbled into the track, Bradshaw’s bike literally clips him on the head, forcing the former to catapult out of his ride and into the track.Read that again: Bradshaw’s bike literally clips him on the head.If it weren’t for the helmet Wainwright was wearing, Bradshaw’s bike would have done far worse when it clipped him on his head. We all know where this story would then go.Miraculously for the two riders, both of them escaped the harrowing accident with nothing more than a cracked rib and a broken collarbone for Wainwright and some minor injuries for Bradshaw.If you’ve ever ridden a bike, or anything that involves needing one, heed caution and just put those helmets on. You never know when it’s going to save your life.
