Default aprilia SR..comin soon

was goin thru newspapers in my college lib. i think i read d followin news in THE TRIBUNE:
hero motors launched STING (4 stroke step thru) in tamil nadu and over the next few months will launch the followin two models:
1) aprilia SR (wow!!)
2)twister
3)sonic (75cc)

theres no doubt that the SR is the one to watch out for.. this model is known for its neck snaping accleration. it sports water cooled engines in many different configurations.

sabby , i know RS is a bike and SR is a scoot
but the SR series r also known for explosive accleration (for a scoot)
remember once OD mag had done a test drive of aprilia ditech SR50 scoot.. 50cc.. n person (of OD mag) who rode it and commented abt the accleration of the scoot.. if u have that issue,read it..

n ya,d 600 n 1000 versions of RSV r expected with in a yr with price tags exceeding 6 lakhs n 9 lakhs respectively.
