One day I will have this bike! My last bike was a scoot and I loved not shifting around town, just crank the throttle and haul ass on this Aprilla Mana 850 GT.
It's not that much heavier than a comparable BMW 650GS, but I wish it was a bit lighter, too, or a bit cheaper. And it has a dual clutch tranny, not a CVT. I suspect that more andmore bikes will have this and Honda is pretty far ahead of the curve on making dual clutch assemblies smaller and lighter.

The Aprilia dealer closest to me (Dahlonega, Georgia) had at least 8 of them 3 weeks ago. I was considering it just because of the price and because of the video below, but traded my CBR250R for a '12 Triumph Street Triple R today.
That is a sweet deal on the mana, I might have jumped on that deal had I saw that advertisement b4 I bought my CBR. However, the cbr's 70+ mpg is way better than the mana's 40 mpg avg plus the mana is about $2k more OTD. Also, Aprillas are much more money to maintain.
