Not that far away from where he is now then. Still not close enough for me sadly!

Owned and Raced one throughout 2015 ...

Electronics were ace in the day, a bit behind now but still pretty good.

Power - no way will one see 200bhp at the wheel, Tim Radley did all the BSB development with Motec and Aprilia and once they got near 195 the stock motors became very fragile, gearboxes are not so robust either. One of my pals took one to 2nd is BSB Cup...

Chassis, epic, really really good. 

Its tiny, I mean SMALL.  Think of a compact R6

Parts supply - proved a ballache through the ownership cycle - understand they are better now but regular waiting for months for parts.

2015: NLR HT1 Endurance (1st)
2014: ACU National Endurance 1000 (2nd)

Cheers mc101. Its good to get feedback from people that have owned one.

Im pretty lucky that i live near to an Aprilia dealer so hopefully wont have any parts issues. I presume service parts are pretty easy to get?

If you know of any road fairing and lights for sale, drop me a pm as im after a set.  :evil:
