Health Check for Aprilia North America?
story by Motorcycle.Com Staff, Created Aug. 03, 2003
Reality Check Pls - In looking to purchase an Aprilia Futura have thrice crossed an ugly rumor that Aprilia is seriously downsizing it's presence and retail channel in North America due to current market conditions and excessive back inventory.
Despite being a bit of a "niche" product, have seen lots of new 01/02s remaining on the dealer floors, special financing on New Old Stock, etc; doesn't foster tons of confidence, esp. for the longterm existance of a reliable support network. Appreciate any feedback. Tnx!

We haven't heard any rumors of immanent demise over at Aprilia... except for this one, that is.--MO
