    Having owned an Aprilia Pegaso Strada - a 650cc single supermoto/naked bike with around 50hp, this review really gives flashback memories of that bike - the only difference being that wheelies seem easier to do at higher speeds, which should be natural given the extra power increase. However, that Aprilia was a gem of a bike despite its relatively low hp number.. It had soft but very stable suspension that could literally soak up anything you threw it at and stay composed, it is incredibly nimble and you can adjust it a billion times mid-corner without ever sacrificing speed or stability. And Aprilia, as mad as they are, decided that this low-spec bike would be fitted from factory with lightweight aluminium wheels (design derived from the RSV1000R but downsized), and then add Brembo brakes as standards just for good measure. That bike man, in the city and on twisty roads, it would eat up anything. Oh yea, it also had twin underseat exhaust.. well, just because they could. I've ridden plenty of more powerful bikes and a lot of the 650 twin class bikes, but none of them feel as poised or as playful as that "little" Aprilia. A well balanced chassis with good suspension and a lively single cylinder engine can result in some really remarkable motorcycles!

    these bikes are such great packages, its a shame we dont see them more often on the streets. I guess most people just look at the power output and decide its a beginner bike like the MT07 or Z650.

      Absolutely. That same amazing engine on better suspension with great tires. All the good backroads where there is, shall we say, a lack of law enforcement tends to be in poor condition. That long travel suspension of the 701 SM eats it right up. I was faster on my 701 SM than my Ducati 1098 street fighter.

      Could be a hardware issue. You use a PC or phone? If it's a PC, make sure it's not running shit in the background, clean it up with a bit of defragging and such and make sure the inside is physically clean too. Dust and shite covering the fans etc can really tank performance.
