SUMMARY
A nice example of a golden-era Italian super bike in the rare Flashy Yellow colour scheme. Running perfectly, it has an MOT until 28/06/2025 and has been in regular use having covered just 30,866 miles.
DESCRIPTION
- Motorcycle manufacturer Aprilia was founded in Noale, Italy, in 1945. After winning many championships in the 125cc and 250cc classes, Aprilia used their racing knowledge to develop their first large capacity sports bike
- Revealed in 1998, the RSV Mille featured a 998cc, 60° V-twin engine from Rotax, producing 128bhp and capable of 178mph
- The bike on offer is a Gen 1.5, which made its debut in 2001, featuring revised aerodynamics and bodywork along with an upgraded big-valve RP engine. This machine is also the high-spec 'R' version, which comes with Ohlins suspension, 'OZ' lightweight forged wheels, carbon fibre body parts and 4-pad, 4-pot Brembo brakes
- The bike was subject to a light refresh five years ago, with side panels, the tail section and the belly pan re-painted and new decals applied. At the same time, a new clutch was fitted, along with a 16/43 chain and sprockets to make it more comfortable to ride in towns
- Well maintained with new fork seals, wheel bearings, intake rubbers, brake pads and the suspension linkage serviced recently
- Some upgrades, including a 150-amp starter relay, a K&N filter with an FR100 ECU chip, R&G paddock stand bobbins and bar ends
- Supplied with the current V5C, owners handbook, workshop manual, sports exhaust, paddock stand and heavy duty cover
- Running perfectly, it has an MOT until 28/06/2025 and has been in regular use having covered just 30,866 miles
