Aprilia Dorsoduro SMV750 description

This is one incredible bike.  Being a serious buyer, I assume you have already done all the research on why this bike is a very fun to own as well as all its features.  I know this listing has a lot of information. My hope is that it makes for a more informed purchase decision.

I am the second owner of the motorcycle. I purchased the bike used in December 2009 from a local Aprilia dealer with approximately 2,500 miles on the clock.  I am an experienced rider and have been riding dirt bikes and motorcycles for 19 years. I am selling this motorcycle because my riding interests have recently shifted more to dualsport riding. I hate seeing this bike sit in my garage. I just put a new battery in it since the last one died due to sitting idle.

This bike has really only needed oil changes and tires - surprisingly low maintenance for an Italian thoroughbred. I aim for a 3,000 mile interval on oil and filter although Aprilia claims you can go 6,000. Current oil/filter change has about 1,500 miles on it. Tires have approximately 3000 miles on them. Air filter is clean and all lights work. I flushed the cooling system in mid-2013. I have checked the valve clearances twice since I have owned it. Both times all clearances have been within spec - there is one intake valve on the front cylinder that is on the lower end of spec, but has not changed since I purchased the bike (likely set up from the factory at the lower end of spec). The stock chain and sprockets are still on the bike and are in good condition. Brake pads and suspension are in condition as well. I have the following aftermarket parts that will be included in the purchase:
  • Leo Vince mid-pipe installed (I have the stock mid-pipe which will be included in the purchase)
  • Acerbis hand guards with integrated LED turn signals installed (I have the stock hand guards and turn signals)
  • Tail tidy license plate mount installed (I do not have the stock 'stinger' style mount, but I would hope no one would ever want to put that back on the bike)
  • I took off the big ugly charcoal canister - I am not sure if I still have it. If so, it will be included with purchase.
  • Rhino axle sliders installed
Other:
  • The bike was low sided on a wet canyon road. Fortunately, this was a very slow speed low side and the only resultant damage was scratches on the front fender, clutch fluid reservoir, and left rear exhaust heat shield. I have tried to represent these as accurately as possible in the pictures.
  • I only have one ignition key
  • I had to rewire the ignition bezel due to the stock wire solder connections failing out of nowhere. This caused the bike to not recognize the key and would not allow the bike to be started. This has been fully corrected. I kept the bezel wire with some more slack in it to prevent this from happening again.
  • I do not know the computer master code - the dealer can likely get this code or flash the computer with a new one. I never tried this since I never had a reason to mess with the computer. This master code would be needed to program a new key.
I have a rear Trackside spool stand I can include in the purchase if desired.
I also have a Pit Bull hybrid dual lift front stand for an additional $150 if interested

Local pickup only.

That pretty much sums it up. Thank you for looking.

Tue, 02 Feb 2010

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration finally released information about the upcoming Aprilia RSV4 engine recall, and just as we suspected here at Motorcycle.com, the culprit was a faulty batch of connecting rods. Yes, the same conrods that curtailed the RSV4R’s European launch, attended by our correspondent Tor Sagen. That October media event at the world-class Mugello circuit was halted after five, count’em, FIVE engines blew.

WSBK 2013: Donington Park Race Report

Tom Sykes had an outstanding weekend in front of his home fans, scoring a pair of wins at the World Superbike Championship round at the United Kingdom’s Donington Park. The Kawasaki racer led every session from first qualifying onwards, before leading all 23 laps in both races for the double.
