2004 Aprilia RSV 1000 Factory (2004)
Used, with low miles (less than 4000) for a 2004. This particular Aprilia model was almost $18K new back in 2004. The Factory is unlike the other RSV 1000 models. This model has OZ forged (not cast) aluminum wheels, solo seat section (no passenger seat pad or foot pegs), Ohlins fully adjustable suspension front and back, Ohlins steering damper, LOTS of carbon fiber parts (front/rear fenders, intake covers, side panels, fairing intakes, heel guards, muffler hangers, upper chain guard). Bike has Akrapovic stainless down pipes (no cats), with Delkevic carbon fiber slip-ons and stainless midpipes, db killers removed, so they're nice and open. Brembo full-floating front rotors with radial calipers, full stainless steel lines for brakes and clutch. Replaced the stock clear windscreen with a Puig dark-tinted double bubble, and redid the stock seat in black suede with tri-color stitching. Has new Dunlop tires (120/70, 190/50). I've owned lots of v-twins (Ducati Superlight, Yamaha Bolt, several Moto Guzzis, BMW, etc), but this RSV is flat out the fastest and best handling v-twin I've ever owned. Would like to see it go to someone who will ride it the way it's supposed to be ridden, and will appreciate what a unique bike this is: 60-degree v-twin; slipper clutch; 57mm throttle bodies; ram air with stepper valve; 140hp, 400 lbs dry weight; magnesium valve covers and clutch cover; 11.8:1 compression; dry sump lubrication; double-sided banana swingarm; 6-speed close-ratio transmission; etc. Truth in advertising: I had a low-speed (less than 20mph per the police report) high-side at the end of Jan (new tires), and worked with a local Aprilia shop to get it fixed. Didn't have collision coverage at the time, so all the repairs came out of my pocket. I sourced several parts on my own, to include replacement body work, frame sliders, mirrors, bar-end weights, and some other assorted parts, in order to save some money. Damage was on the left side only, mainly cosmetic (per the repair estimate), but also replaced the clutch lever, left-side handlebar, gear shift, and foot peg. Bought a Triumph Tiger while my RSV was in the shop, and found that bike to be a LOT more comfortable to ride, thus my decision to sell the RSV. Bought a 2016 Triumph Street Twin (great bike!), so the RSV's gotta go. Reason for selling this bike is it's just too uncomfortable for me to ride, being 56 years old. I rode the Tiger for an hour and half recently, and felt fine afterwards. Hopped on the RSV, and after about 10 minutes, my wrists and shoulders started to get sore, due to the position of the clip-ons. Being 56, I guess I have to finally admit I'm past my sportbike riding days! I have a loan on it thru Langley Federal Credit Union, so they have the title, which will be sent after loan is paid off and processed. Last time I did this it took about two weeks to get the title, which I signed off and forwarded to the new owner. Payment types accepted are bank checks and cashier's checks, no PayPal or personal checks. Shipping is the buyer's responsibility, with payment in full prior to pickup. Bike is located in Newport News (VA) if buyer wants to pick it up.2016-06-14 15:59:02Newport News, Virginia, United States44200

2024 Aprilia RS457 Review – First Ride
Fri, 29 Mar 2024A refreshing gateway drug into the world of Aprilia Photos: Alex Photo Picture it: you’re a new or newer sport rider who aspires to own an Aprilia. You could go with the RSV4, which you ultimately want to graduate to eventually, but it’s a terrible idea to get one right off the bat. The RS660 could be a decent choice, depending on your abilities, comfort level, and talent.
2024 Aprilia RS 660 Extrema Review
Thu, 28 Dec 2023Track trickster Photos by Aprilia Aprilia’s measured but inexorable rise to the front of the MotoGP pack in recent months, with two victories in three races plus a Sprint race win, all inside the space of 30 days, has reaffirmed the Piaggio-owned brand’s sporting credentials at the highest level. [Unfortunately for them, this was the extent of Aprilia’s race wins for the year -TS] It’s also served as a parting testimony to the late Roberto Colaninno, Chairman/CEO of Piaggio who passed away on August 19, just days after his 80th birthday and a fortnight after Aleix Espargaró’s Silverstone race victory saw Aprilia turn the tables on its Ducati rivals. For stock market wheeler-dealer Colaninno deserves credit for taking his eye off the balance sheet long enough to give Aprilia’s race team sufficient budget to elbow aside big spenders Ducati and KTM in a successful drive for MotoGP glory.

Church of MO: 2003 Best of the Best
Sun, 22 Jan 2023By John Burns Now we need a good reason and a Master Plan: 20 years ago we just needed three cool motorcycles and an open invitation to California Speedway (which I hear just hosted its last trackday. RIP.) Earlier we’d already deduced the Kawasaki ZX-6R was the best 600, the Suzuki GSX-R1000 was the best 1000, and the Aprilia Mille R was the best Twin (and the one you most wish you’d embezzled). So why not compare them all to each other?
2023 Aprilia RS660 Extrema First Look
Tue, 08 Nov 2022The RS660 goes on a diet thanks to SC Project and some carbon fiber. Aprilia is celebrating the success of the RS660 worldwide (and claiming it’s the best-selling sportbike in Europe) with this – the RS660 Extrema, the sportiest version of the RS660 family. The name is modeled after that of the Aprilia 125 Extrema, one of the highest-performing and fastest eighth-liter bikes ever, manufactured from 1992 to 1994.
Aprilia Looks To The Future With The ELECTRICa Project
Tue, 08 Nov 2022This supermoto-ish-looking thing is Aprilia‘s “vision of mobility for the youngest riders of the near future.” So, forget Millenials or even Gen Z, this Aprilia ELECTRICa project is aimed at Generation Alpha – a cohort of kids who, at the oldest end of the spectrum, are currently in junior high school.

Church of MO: 2012 Literbike Streetfighter Shootout - With Video!
Sun, 16 Oct 2022Ten years ago, Tommy, Trizzle, and the Duke were feeling their oats as they manned about town on a trio of naked torpedoes. “When it came to forming a mental picture of riding one or the other, we also agreed the sexy Speed Triple will pick up more chicks than the Aprilia. The Tuono’s manufacturer claimed it was for “the rider who, given the chance, would use a race bike just to go for a coffee.” Meanwhile, the MV Agusta’s combination of short wheelbase and mid-range torque keeps the Brutale’s front wheel in the air, aided by the shortest overall ratios in the first two gears.
Aprilia Introduces The Most Extreme RSV4 Yet - The XTrenta
Fri, 02 Sep 2022An RSV4 with MotoGP levels of aero, including the under wing. To celebrate 30 years since Aprilia won its first world championship title, Aprilia (or, more appropriately, the racing division) is introducing this, the RSV4 Xtrenta. Encompassing the same basic profile the RSV4 has carried since its birth over a decade ago, the Xtrenta is defined by the level of aerodynamic work the Noale factory has applied from its MotoGP program.
Showdown: 2022 Aprilia Tuareg 660 Vs. Yamaha Tenere 700
Thu, 25 Aug 2022Middleweight adventure bikes duke it out on a 2,000 mile tour Credit: Photos by Evans Brasfield | Videos by Sean Matic As we motored slaunchways across Utah, the late daylight stretched our shadows and cast golden hues against the tall canyon walls, further accentuating the contrast between the rust colored ancient seabeds peppered with lush green juniper and muted sage. The lavender sky over Bryce faded as we continued westward on Hwy 12. Refusing to pack a second visor for my Shoei Hornet X2, I lifted the dark smoke shield as I led our crew into the dark dense forest, keeping my line of sight just above the Ténéré’s windscreen in an attempt to protect my peepers from the onslaught of kamikaze insects.
Church of MO: 2002 Aprilia Mille R
Sun, 12 Jun 2022Photos by Robert Pandya Shut UP, no way was this 20 years ago! Maybe this 2002 Aprilia Mille R stands out in memory because the year after 911 was so uneventful?
