If you think of the VTR1000 as a 600 sports on steriods then your get a feel for the VTR, its a good alrounder, I havent rode an aprillia millie, but then they are taller and cost more money but from what I heard and read they always come on top of the V twin sports market.

The VTR kicks the ickle Mille into the no torque bin, remember its hp may be the same but the power/torque work in different ways, an average rider with both bikes will be faster on the VTR but a racer...maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay......be quicker on the Mille because they can keep the Mille in the power band better, I know I scared myself on a r6 trying to make "progress" keeping it in the band.....gimme my storm anyday.

Their rear suspension linkages are like VTR CCTs....
