=9. RSV-1000R: 4 out of 5
With looks and performance akin to a kick in the pods, Aprilia's RSV-1000R proved that not every Italian sportsbike had to be a blood-red, 90° V-twin from Bologna. It piles out a claimed 128hp and handles too, thanks to competent all-singing Ohlins suspension. Offers more oomph and comfort than a Ducati 916 - an everyman’s exotica, if you will.
=9. RS50: 4 out of 5
A modern Fizzie? Not for the mechanically ignorant, but a proper motorbike nevertheless. The RS50 was the first production 50cc motorcycle to be equipped with a die-cast aluminium frame that boasts light weight and strength. It has real racing heritage and is guaranteed to get you a frenchie at the school gates. Probably.
8. SL1000 Falco: 4.05 out of 5
The Falco is one of those classic forgotten about bikes - a shame as it actually has a fair sized fan base in the UK. It uses a de-tuned RSV-R lump housed in a fairly sporty chassis and has a decent half-fairing for weather protection. Bad points? Some will say the package is a tad utilitarian next to the Mille.
7. Shiver SL750: 4.06 out of 5
The SL750 used an all-new 749.9cc 90-degree V-twin engine that put out an adequate 94hp with strong mid-range pull, perfect for road use. It cost £5,600 at its launch in 2007 and you got plenty for your money, including four-piston Brembo brakes, fly-by-wire throttle and a dash full of information.
6. RS125: 4.08 out of 5
If you want a bike to tickle your senses then it's a two-stroke every time. And for the last 18 years RS125s have stimulated over 82,000 teenagers the world over. Strong brakes, razor sharp handling and a revvy 28hp engine when derestricted. Just the tool for teens to mis-spend their youth on and learn how to be a GP star.
