    No, the only difference between the 2017 vs the 2018 is the different colour. No technical change or other improvements at all.!

    I must have been looking at an earlier one. I was under the impression there were quite a few upgrades on the electronics, TFT instruments, pit lane limiter, usb plugs for devices etc etc Getting some rave reviews. Look forward to your reviews and info on it.

    It's my third Aprilia RSV4 (2014 Factory, 2016 RF, 2017 RF) The biggest Upgrade came with the 2017 model. It's a dream bike in my opinion.

    or 19. something K for the RF against 24K for the DucatiV4s.... I may hang onto the Blade until these start appearing secondhand. I swore years ago I would never buy a brand new bike again and I think PSP is a rip off or pretty pointless. Still tempted by the S1000RR too and good ones are available now.... It'll be between the 3 I think unless Honda reveal something truly outstanding in the next year or 2.

    I got rid of my s1000rr and now got 2017 rsv4 rf sat in its place. Big upgrades on the 17 over 2016 model.

    The rf has better suspension and Bluetooth as the rr model does not but you can add Bluetooth.

    I got mine from Teasdale ask for Mark

    Thanks, already asked Andy if he could reduce a Norton by 8 grand :) You can probably guess the answer.

    Did yours need the master cylinder recall doing?
