That is a Crf450. He has a great sense of humor & irony - as well as the balls to put an Aprilia sticker on there

They wouldnt let him run the Aprilia.....too scared it would win.....the same reason its banned from the AMA, and many other orgs.

BTW - the Priller SXV450 is completely dominating and currently holding all of the top 3 positions in the S1 World Championships and the 550 is in 2nd place in S2.

Not allowed?

He runs the Aprilia in the AMA series, doesn't he? He's in the Unlimited Class, but he's still there!

Read the "rule book", it's a TWIN, it's not a conspiracy, it's just not legal per AMA (GAG!) rules......

I know what it is, I just thought it was funny. Especially the sticker on the cover that reads "Aprilia?"
