Look through the list of Aprilia dealers to find one close to you. If the dealer has a website of their own, it will be listed and you can place your order online. If you order online, be sure to verify how the scooter will be delivered as some places may only offer curb-side delivery where you are responsible for getting the heavy scooter off the truck. If there is no website for the local dealer, you will need to call or visit a location near you to buy your scooter.
