The launch of the new Aprilia RSV4-R at Mugello was cut short yesterday after five of the bikes suffered terminal con rod failures. Senior Road Tester, Michael Neeves was there:
“I did two 20-miniute sessions at the high-speed Italian track on the RSV4-R, which is a slightly lower spec version of the Factory model launched earlier this year. I had no problems with my bike but five others expired.

Those are pretty good odds....
If you're a mechanic in Scarperia (that's the name of the suburb neighbouring the track)

Matches the Motard they sell. A definite shame.

Still not as bad as the XBOX 360 failure rate
