Hi there!
I'm Alex and I live in the Netherlands. I've been riding bikes for 10 years now and recently become a owner of a 2004 RSV 1000R. This is my third Aprilia now (previous bikes; CBR 600F, CBR 954RR fireblade, Aprilia Tuono 2003, Kawasaki Z1000, Aprilia RSV Mille 2002). All bikes I've owned are great in there one way, but the Rotax V-Twin is definitely the most fun to drive. (and Ducati's :-)) So originally this RSV 1000R is not a Factory, but almost all factory parts are on it: - All carbon parts - OZ forged wheels - Ohlins rear shock - Radial brake pump (or is this default?) Thinking of mounting a AP rearset. But first I'm going to invest in a new pear of leathers. Enough talking.. Tuono (sold) RSV Mille (sold recently) New and old (RSV 1000R before mods) New bike |

Loving it and unusual to see gold wheels on a silver ape I was thinking of going the same way on mine and swapping the blue but didn't know if it would work. I think it does. Welcome along and you are from a fine country loved living over there where abouts are you?

I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left

Yeah! The previous owner of this bike was my dad, and he did all the mods. First I thought the gold wouldn't look good, but now they are under the bike I really like it! Nice detail, the gold matches nice with the orange in the decals
