    Two months ago I bought an Aprilia Pegaso 650, year 1998, drove 4500km to Corsica and Sardinia, 0% problems, 100% fun. Great vids!

    ...Don't tell me... I got her in 2010 with 64.000 km on the clock ( for 700 euro!), in Sicily. With my Irish partner, in 2019, we drove from Sicily to Ireland ( where we live now ) ...3000 Km , fully loaded! Now she has 112.000 Km . The Pegaso is very reliable bike, as long you know how to treat her. She Is very nice to drive and goes everywere - Best buy of my life! I enoyed your video! Thanks! - Uncaught Duo -

    I bought a Pegaso 650 IE after watching your video. I actually wanted to get a Himalayan, but was doubting if I wanted to spend the money. Just a few rides and I was in love with the Pegaso. The seat is incredibly comfy (even on long hauls), and it just plows through mud and sand. It really is an incredible bike, and I wonder why it hasn't gotten more fandom. Thanks for this video for introducing me to my new love!

    I can confirm It's a good bike. I also have 2 of them here in NZ (one for parts) and I've taken them on some serious offroad. I have one set of rims with 50-50 tires and one set of 90-10 touring tires.

    I'm considering a 2000 model for £3000. It's mint. Very difficult since Covid to find a used bike for under £3000 the days unless it's rough or high mileage.
    Trouble is even though the clocks are in MPH the mileage goes up in KM. The HPI report flags up loads of MOT mileage discrepancies. Where testers have converted the KM or MPH and some haven't.
    That's the only problem come resale.

    I’ve owned one for ca four years. Would give 3,2 points out of 5. Many many aspects that could be much better on these bikes. Seat is garbage, original screws that hold the plastic rubbed holes in radiator, usable rev range is short( constant gear switching needed), pain in the ass carb removal procedure etc etc.
