Can't imagine an RC45 going for reasonable money in NA. But if it was I would. BTW I may be moving to Japan by the end of the year; I've got a few irons in the fire. What am I looking at for rare Japanese exotica in Japan?
Wow... moving to Japan... what part???
Those race inspired 250s 2 strokes like the NSR TZ RG and the 400s 4 strokes
like NC35 CBR come to mind...
"Exercise restraint and discipline, only responding to posts from legit customers and those with constructive positive intent, you will find that the handgrenades explode harmlessly. You have many satisfied customers who are happy to have the parts you've made. My suggestion to you is keep making good parts, keep getting more customers, take care of them and let them speak for you."
Max and Nakano will be a formidiable pair. Once the they get the Aprilia developed to a competitive level, watch out.
Yeah that's gonna be freakin' awesome. I've grown to like Biaggi (did I just say that?) and I've always rooted for Nakano, and having the pair of them on the new V4 Aprilia is just sexy..
Can't wait to see what they make out of it!!!

The season may shape up to look different at the end than the beginning.
At first you know that Honda, Ducati, and Suzuki will do well, but by the end of the year you will also likely have Aprilia, Yamaha, and BMW near the front too.
