KSw Aprilia RSW250 #46 '99
Hi guys, my first bike! I'm trying to get new motivation....

Before start fireworks, let me to dedicate this build to Vale, that can't stop to astound us all, and to a superb Aprilia's engineer: Mr. Gigi Dall'Igna, fellow countryman of mine (TBH I don't know both by person, but I'll like to meet one day LOL)

The quality of the KS workshop TK is good, it need the Tamy's Yamaha 250 as donor, I worked a bit re-engineering the back fork/wheel and the front fork.











The spirit of the whole job is those of a decent curbside model, so few details more and I'll focus all my attention to the awesome livery.... stay tuned!!

A little step more: forks after muuuuch more attempts are now better, I'll seam soon the handlebars axles. I machined also the rear damper and the reservoir for the Ohlins system, I flattened down the spring sides on the grind machine.







ciao!

Thanks friends: some updates. All components of the front fork are now ready but I just test fitted another time since I need to mount the fairing before.... shame.... I would like glue alltogether now LOL
