After a little bit of going back and forth I'm going to put my 2001 Rsvr up for sale. I brought this just over a year ago, It was in a bit of a sorry state, and to be honest it has remained in a sorry state. The intention was to buy it and return it to its former glory.
However 3 weeks ago a member on aprilia.me dropped the price of the bike he was selling and I just felt it was to good a bike to miss out on. So I picked that bike up, with the intentions of selling my bike on. I then thought about keeping my bike and turning it to a track bike but deep down I know i should be selling it on as the money should be going towards other things.
So its going up for sale. The good things about the bike is the very low mileage. Its got just over 10,000 miles on. Which for a bike of this age is really good in my opinion. It's got a long list of previous MOT's along with a fair chunk original paper work. I have just done an oil and filter change last week. And most importantly being the R it has the OZ wheels, and Ohlins Suspension etc.
The bad bits are the terrible paint job it has from when the previous owner had a low speed drop, The fact that the bike only has one key, which for some reason has always annoyed me. There are a few various scrapes and cracks in some of the fairings. The bike could probably also do with a trip to Aprilia Performance for them to do there thing.
The bike rides great and I could see it making a perfect track bike if someone wanted to turn it into one. I took it out round brands 2 weeks ago and it was brilliant. I'm planning on selling the bike standard as I would like to keep the exhaust and airbox that i've fitted as an option for my new bike. It has a Dataool Evo alarm fitted but I could always remove it if a buyer doesn't want it. Im looking for £2300 but I'm open to offers
Here is a couple pictures of the bike and a picture of the bike in action round brands the other week. If anyone wants any more pics or a bit more info give me a shout.
