Located in Trenton, Michigan is a supposedly official Aprilia import 1995 Aprilia RS250. The seller claims that this was brought into the U.S. by Aprilia and isn’t a converted cup bike–very neat if true. Showing only 2476 miles (Original MPH speedometer?) this bike looks very clean from the small but numerous pictures. The opening bid is $8,500, which I expect to be market correct– once the history and condition have been verified. If you’re looking for a plated RS250 with some slight modifications, this one is worth investigating. See and bid on the eBay ad here

This model was never imported by Aprilia officially or un-officially. It was not sold as a cup bike either. The cup did no exist in 1995, 96 or 97 when this body style was offered. So it is a nice find if it is clean. Especially in this Regianni color which was a special/limited edition as was the Chesterfield the following year. If you got the $$ buy it!
I have sold one recently for $9000.00 and sold severla in the last 3 years for close to the same.
