                  A delightful experience with my bike
                  It's very comfortable bike and I enjoyed it a lot but it's mileage is not a fact ... Because it's very fun to Ride it's engine is so refined that I can easily pull it up in traffic.... It's pick up and top speed is so good and it's graphics designing and electronics are so spoty and usefull ... Highly recommend to ride it once

                  A bike which is only judged by its looks and but not by its power the mighty 39T
                  A bike with good looks and with a good power with a semi fairing the initial speed is best in the segment and the leading class bike but lack in proper updates made its sales very slow and it caused the marketing a criteria of this bike section is of the leading one and its competitors like rr310 ninja 300 and many other are less powerful and less confidental infront of this machine

                  Best performance bike in its segment.
                  Im using RC 390 since the past 8 months I got a better experience while riding the vehicle. It gives a better mileage while comparing to its power and performance. I got around 22 to 27 kmpl mileage. But the riding comfort is not good we can't take it to a long ride. Overall it's a beast in its segment.

                  Aprilia bike rewiew
                  one of the best bikes i use for speeding,best comfort gets to 100 kms in just 5 seconds,i cant believe a bike with such a fast throttle and pickup giving mileage of 30 kms its out of my mind,maintenance cost is appreciable service and parts available all over India no need for waiting parts just go to aprilla showroom

                  Unique bike but absolute comfort machine
                  My brother bought this bike a few months ago and it is excellent, in simple this bike is so comfortable to compare to Apache and BMW 310 r, its ride quality and speed, torque are great and the handling when you are at high speed is very smooth which is why i definitely recommend you to buy this bike. Also, I live in a tier 1 city but I only see some of these bikes in rare locations so you have something great and unique

                  Took a Test Drive and
                  Took a Test Drive and power to Weight ratio is awesome could have been little softer suspension for good comfort but overall a beast to be on road in my opinion aprilia is going great places after this, previously had a gt 650 and my mind had different view on this but as soon a took a ride wow man its changed

                  This is the most expected
                  This is the most expected bike made and luched in india but according to me the price is little high .it can be expected around 3 lacks in the road price but the price is high.but also the design and performance is top of the most killer among the sports naked bikes in india. I am very happy to purchase this bike
