Comparing the chassis specs between the RSV4 and the old RSVR:
-wheelbase is 1420mm on the V4 and 1410 on the V2
-overall length is 2040mm on the V4 and 2025 on the V2
-seat height is 847mm on the V4 and 820 on the V2
As it is (unfortunately) the current bike-of-the-moment, there are waiting lists at the dealers. Wait a year or so and they should be available. Also, as with all other Italian bikes, the resale value sucks, so in about 2 years a used one would be well worth the wait.

For me, it's always the critical seat-to-peg distance that results in major fitment issues. The Mille was incredibly short. Maximum 30 minutes riding for me, then I need to get off.....but I can ride all day long on the bad old 996, because my legs aren't wrapped around my ears.
