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. The two-stroke water-cooled RS125 was a close replica of the GP bike, giving road riders a taste of race track handling and performance.
This RS125 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. A stunning-looking bike in Valentino Rossi Aprilia team colours, not many of these race replicas will have survived in this standard and original condition. Last run earlier this year it may need light recommissioning before use and comes supplied with a current V5C.
