SUMMARY

One of 25 UK examples and 461 worldwide, this rare, one owner, 'Colin Edwards Replica' has covered less than 3,000 miles from new. Fresh from the workshop at AP in Tamworth, it's still on its factory tyres and is supplied with its bespoke factory 'kit'.

 

 

DESCRIPTION

  • In 1998, the Aprilia RSV Mille was introduced as a race-replica sports motorcycle manufactured until 2003, when it was replaced by the Aprilia RSV1000R. It was available in RSV Mille, RSV Mille R, and RSV Mille SP versions
  • In 2003, the limited-edition RSV Mille R Edwards Replica arrived with its  livery inspired by the Aprilia RS 'Cube' MotoGP motorcycle ridden by Colin Edwards
  • The Edwards version was supplied with a circuit kit which included an Akrapovic full exhaust system, a more pressurized airbox, Epron injection, 57mm throttle bodies instead of 51mm, multiple carbon body panels, thinner lighter screen, decal set and other special parts
  • Powered by a 998cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin generating 138bhp at 9,500 rpm and79 lb.ft of torque at 5,500rpm
  • Based on the RSV Mille R, the bike also had OZ lightweight forged wheels, Ohlins suspension, Ohlins steering damper and radial-mounted Brembo brakes
  • 461 examples Edwards Replicas were sold worldwide with, it's believed, only 25 allocated to the UK
  • Confirmed running and fresh from the workshop at AP in Tamworth, this one owner bike has covered less than 3,000, is still on its original tyres and is supplied with its original factory 'kit'
  • In beautiful original condition, the bike is supplied with a current V5 and all of the handbooks, parts and paperwork that came with it from new
