2003 Aprilia RSV Mille R Colin Edwards racer replica

Another Italian V-twin for sale, but only this time it’s not that other brand. Yes, a 2003 Colin Edwards – Texas Tornado – special with a laundry list of bits that make it even more appealing than it already is.
Located in Boise, ID with an asking price of $9,000.00 this one is sure to please. Complete with racer boy graphics, a whole lot of carbon fiber, Leo Vince exhaust (that looks to be a titanium piece), those ever sweet blue anodized OZ wheels shod with some new stick icky and one of my personal favs – black Sato rear sets.

This is a whole lot of bike for the money and would make for a great weekend canyon carver or a nice living room piece. The only thing that turns me off about the Aprilia Mille is they appear to be too big. I’m not sure why, but it might be how the tail section sits up or the bulbous looking fairing… But,either one of those little quirk’s wouldn’t keep me from throwing a leg over it and giving it a proper flogging through the curves.

Aprilia’s attention to detail and little add-on’s like the anodized triple clamp and the jet fighter engine looking tail light really set these apart from the crowd. Take a look and give it a once (or twice) over.

Quotes:

Has approx. 6400 miles, new tires (rear still has stubs)6K mile service completed. In 2 years I have only put approx. 500 miles on this bike. The year I bought this I also purchased a Honda XR 650L thinking I might try more dual sport riding. Now I have decided that I want to really pursue the dual sport riding extensively and sell more of my sport bikes, or maybe Im just getting too old to remain crouched for that long, more likely the latter.

Ohlins supension front and rear
Oz wheels
Power Commander
ASV fully adjustable levers
SATO black rear sets
Leo Vince exhaust
Corbin seat
DHM frame sliders
Ventura front light guard
smoked sheild

Its one of 50 in the states (At least one has been crashed, and one in the Barber museum)
and around 300 built worldwide.

1995 Aprilia RS 250 Reggiani replica with low miles

Filed Under (Aprilia) by Doug on 09-03-2010

Tagged Under : ,

1995 Aprilia RS 250 Loris Reggiani replica for sale on the OC CL for $8,300.00 with Cali title and registration.

This one should be in great shape having only 4300 miles on the odometer. This RS is sitting in the same garage as a the 1991 RGV 250 that Alex posted back on February 3rd; which by the way is still for sale. Now, the owner has told me that he is only going to sell one of his babies. So which one do you want to take off his hands?? The owner has done something interesting in that he has removed the lower fairings to better preserve them. As you will see in the pictures they are removed and leaning against the wall. If I had the extra scratch burning a hole in my pocket I’d pick up the Aprilia and leave the Suzuki. We’ve had a few Reggiani’s posted on RSBFS and this seems to be right in line on pricing. I posted a regular RS a few days ago for this exact same price and it sold in 48 hours.

Quotes from the seller:

Rare Aprilia 2-stroke V2 with a California title and current registration. Low miles (4300) and runs very strong. Good sticky tires and ready to ride. The fairing is in very good shape but has been removed to preserve it, attract less attention, and better tolerate santa ana side winds. At over 70 HP and under 300 pounds, this bike has amazing speed and handling. Missing rear seat and leaky forks but otherwise excellent condition.

So it looks like a set of fork seals and a trip to ebay for seat and you would have a super nice RS. With spring just around the corner, the possibility of someone buying the Suzuki and taking this one off the market you’d better not delay if your in the market. You can contact the seller here.

Cheers!

This is a one owner Haga replica with only 362 miles!  Located in Fowlerville, Michigan is a 2003 Aprilia RSV Mille R Nori Haga replica.  This one has been posted for a couple days but I was waiting for the seller to post pictures to share it with you all.  Only 300 of these were produced worldwide with 60 coming to America.  These replicas came with not only the WSB Haga replica scheme but also:  Blue Ergal tripple clamp with Haga’s signature, production number, and WSB text, Akrapovic titanium exhaust with SS collectors and EPROM map, ten additional hp, 6.6lb weight loss (with Akrapovic system fitted) and all the standard features of the Mille R variant.  This bike comes with the standard exhaust and the Akrapovic system.  The seller doesn’t state much other than the bike is in flawless condition and has always been kept in a heated garage.  The pictures seem to easily agree with this claim.  The asking price appears to be all of $16,500.  If this Haga replica has you jonesing, see the bike on the ApriliaForum.com here.

1999 Aprilia RS 250 track bike

Filed Under (Aprilia) by Doug on 28-02-2010

Tagged Under : , , , ,

1999 Aprilia RS 250 with a very nice looking paint job, priced at a mere $4,000.00 and located in Fairfield, CT. I must say that I am very impressed the quality paint work on this machine. Being an ex-racer I’d say the majority of regional race machines are spray bombed to match factory colors to be eligible for contingency money, but this one is different. From the looks of it this racer took a little bit of pride in his machine and actually had a plan before spraying it. It sort of reminds me of the Cabin Honda teams of the all Japan Super Bike Series.

We’ve had several RS’s up over the past few weeks that ranged from race bikes to street bikes. And of course, I like them all :) . The seller doesn’t give much info about their bike other than it is reliable and starts with a couple of kicks. I typically like a little more history or information about bikes, but this time I’m out of luck.

The bike is in good condition,
The bike has all stock parts only . Bike is very reliable always starts with a couple of kicks.

Have a need for a super track day bike or a good base for a race bike? Click here to view the ad on the WERA BBS and give the owner a call.

2000 Aprilia RS 250 for sale on ebay with no reserve!

Filed Under (Aprilia) by Doug on 26-02-2010

2000 Aprilia RS 250 with only 2,551 on the clock and listed as a no reserve auction!!!

Current bid is $6,100.00 with 4 days left on the auction. I posted a RS last Saturday and it sold within 48 hours for around $8,000.00. So at $6,100.00 this one is a steal considering it has super low miles. This is an original owner Aprilia Cup bike that was never raced or tracked. There is an interesting story behind this bike in how it became street legal.

Here it is in the owners own words:

The bike was originally a cup bike but when I got the title back from DMV they had given me a street title by mistake. So, I put a set of brake lights on it, got a street cowl with headlights and mirrors and have been riding it that way ever since.

Now, I’m a little confused by what the seller says next.

Bike will come with street wiring, the original cowl and a street tail section.

I’m a little confused by the fact that there is a street wiring harness that isn’t installed on the bike nor is the OEM street tail section that is in included. The tail section on the bike appears to have turn signals, but no brake light. So in my mind this begs the question “do the lights actually work or are they just filling a need for the bike to be legal on the street?” Either way the bike looks to be in excellent shape and has all the stock parts. This is a dream come true for anyone looking at a RS. Why is that you may ask? Plain and simple this is a one owner, low mileage and streetable RS. The price is right and the owner has his phone number listed on the auction site for any questions that you have.

Here are the pictures with more on the auction for you to look at.

I like this one as much as any RS that we’ve posted on RSBFS. I think it has a lot to offer and for once it’s located on the right side of America :) Like I mentioned before the last RS we posted sold in 48 hours so if your interested you better get in the mix sooner than later. You can check out more pictures and .

Cheers!

Four Aprilia Two Strokes, All In The U.S.A.

These are the RS125s and RS250s for sale in the U.S. today!

Located in Mountain View, California is a California titled & registered 2006 Aprilia RS125.  The seller states that this bike is only available this week/weekend and if it isn’t sold by next week will become living-room art.  2006 is the first year of the new fairing, and features two headlights, digital gauges, and multi-spoke wheels.  This example comes equipped with an Arrow pipe, EK gold chain, fender eliminator, frame sliders and the spares are:  Two power-valves, two balance shaft gears, the stock parts and two stock exhaust systems.  The asking price is $5,200.  See it on BayAreaRidersForum.com here.  See it on Craigslist here.

Located in Beverly Hills, California is a California titled & registered 2002 Aprilia RS125.  The story is this bike was brought back from Italy and successfully titled and registered in California.  However, the photo used in the ad features a European License plate so be cautious–or it could just be an old photo.  This is one of the rarer paint schemes for bikes in the U.S.  The asking price for this example is $5,800.  See it on Craigslist here.

Located in Orange County, California is a California titled & registered (First Generation) Aprilia RS250 in unoriginal colors.  The seller states that this bike has been sitting for three years so, it will need to be properly gone through before use.  The bike has been down at some point and features prominent scratches on the left-hand side.  The asking price is $5,400.  See it on Craigslist here.

Lastly, we have a 1999 Aprilia RS250 race/track bike that I don’t believe we’ve seen before.  The seller states that this is a one owner bike with 1,834 miles.  The seller states that there is some very minor wear and tear on the bike.  The asking price is $4,500; and is located in Miami, Florida.  See the bike on Craigslist here.

If any of these strike your fancy, check them out and make sure to tell the seller you saw it on RSBFS!

1999 Aprilia RS250

The wording in the ad leads me to believe this to be a titled and registered Cup bike!  Located in Ackworth, Georgia is a 1999 Aprilia RS250 that was originally an Aprilia Cup bike.  These have become a mainstay at RSBFS as they are a fabulous, modern, two-stroke twins that are sometimes often enough street registered.  The seller of this specific example states that it has a headlight and taillight; he doesn’t state whether it has a title, or is registered, but my thinking is that it possibly is as there is no other reason to put those on a track machine!  The other possible indicator is that–regardless of aftermarket goodies–this bike is priced at $5,000; putting it somewhere between a pure cup bike and a titled, very original, road machine.  The seller states that the accessories on this bike are:  Woodcraft Rear sets, SS brake lines, 1/4 turn Domino throttle, three RGV250 cylinders & heads, transmission, power valves, Penske rear shock, Tyga SS exhaust–and completely unrelated, a titled RSV Mille frame.

If you’re interested in a possible street bike–I would lean towards it probably isn’t though–see the ad on ApriliaForum.com here.

2009 Aprilia RS125 Titled & Registered

Filed Under (Aprilia) by Alex on 24-01-2010

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , ,

This is a street legal 2009 Aprilia RS125 located in Tucson, Arizona and priced very nicely.  The 2009 Aprilia RS125 was the ultimate two stroke tease; as always, available in Europe as a street bike, the latest in Aprilia two stroke and frame technology, and Aprilia then had the audacity to bring them to U.S. showrooms for us to drool over!  These come to the U.S. with a VIN plate that clearly says for off-road use only, and a title that reiterates that fact however, physically, they are only missing the European wiring harness,  license plate mount, front & rear turn signals, and I believe headlight bulbs to be operationally street legal.  The wiring harness and the title have always been the toughest things to get.  When they were first imported in early 2009 the Euro harnesses were essentially unobtainable unless you knew someone who could purchase and ship one from Europe/U.K.  now they are easily available from AF1 Racing and other sites for around $480.  As everyone knows though, it’s the title that is the problem.  This brings us to this bike, it has the harness–however in the photos it isn’t shown to have turn signals–and was titled and registered from new!  The asking price is $5,000; making it appear that these bikes have begun to depreciate as the street titled ones used to carry an understandable premium over the stock bikes, the price of this current bike is under the original MSRP of the off-road only bikes.  The local Aprilia/Ducati still has–from what I saw–three of these in stock so dealers obviously aren’t sold out of these.  So, to sum it all up, the 2009 RS125s appear to finally be depreciating–including the registered ones–so if you’d like a discounted, street legal, Aprilia RS125; see the ad on NorthAmericanTwoStrokes.com here.  Also, see the bike on WERA here.
