Aprilia RSV Mille

The Aprilia RSV 1000 R is a super bike motorcycle manufactured by Aprilia from 2004 through 2008. Along with the bike's redesign Aprilia renamed the RSV from RSV Mille to RSV 1000 R. It is offered in three versions: RSV 1000 R (while the "R" designation on the RSV Mille signified the higher spec version) is the standard version, the higher spec version is the RSV 1000 R Factory, and Aprilia made a limited edition version called RSV 1000 R Nera.

RSV 1000 R Factory

The RSV 1000 R Factory comes with fully adjustable Öhlins Racing rear monoshock and adjustable Öhlins steering damper, blue-painted forged aluminium wheels, frame finished in black, and carbon fibre parts.

For 2006 the RSV 1000 R Factory won the Maxisport category for Masterbike 2006 and overall Masterbike of the year.

RSV 1000 R Nera

The RSV 1000 R Nera comes with carbon fibre body panels, magnesium wheels, full titanium exhaust, titanium nuts, bolts and fasteners (reducing the motorcycle's weight to 175kg). It is powered by an enhanced version of the 60° v-twin magnesium engine producing 104bhp @ 10,000 rpm. Only 200 RSV 1000 R Nera motorcycles were made.
