Aprilia is an Italian motorcycle manufacturer founded immediately after World War II in Noale Italy by Alberto Beggio. Initially concentrating on small-capacity bikes and component manufacturer for other companies, they now produce a large range of models from scooters through to superbikes. Aprilia always had a strong motorsport connection, beginning with motocross racing and then a multiple world championship-winning road racing programme with riders such as Valentino Rossi and Max Biaggi. With a 998 cc 60-degree vee-twin engine built by the Austrian company Rotax, the RSV Mille was the first large displacement motorcycle made by Aprilia, who had previously only made smaller capacity bikes.

This RSV Mille has been part of a large and fascinating collection of bikes ranging from the 1980s up until the early 2000s. The vendor has enjoyed searching out examples of more or less all of the bikes he either owned or wanted in the day, but after amassing over 30 assorted models from a Honda MT50 through to a couple of Bimotas he's decided to downsize his collection. The bike was last run in 2019, see video, and has been stored since so will need some recommissioning before use. Offered in original condition and fitted with an aftermarket carbon look end can, the original stainless one is included in the sale as well as a current V5C.
