Hi guys, it's a massive long shot
But I'm after finding my old rsv It's 2001 but with 2002 orange sticker kit Sticker kit was new, black and orange steering damper, It's not an r model, Reg fx51 xcm It's hugely sentimental and would love it back. Forks have black and white bikes sticker on Bolts where all stainless steel Max torque exhaust , Or even to know if bike is still in one piece Cheers

Don’t quote me on this but can’t you write/email to DVLA and ask them to contact owner on your behalf?

I tracked down my 1991 ZXR750 using my wife's Facebook.....tried the usual routes, so posted a request on the zxr Facebook page.... Literally half an hour later a message came back from a chap near London to say he owns it and races it at the Manx classic TT....... you could have knocked me over with a feather!! He did say that forget buying it back as the only original parts were the main frame and engine casings........ Still was pleased that it is still being thrashed even after nearly 30 years
Love it or hate it, social media can be a good tool |

Unlikely to work unless you claim you need to info for an accident where they disappeared or they parked on private land and you are one of the scammer parking companies. For just corresponding with current owner they will deny based on 'Data protection'.

Might be worth asking AP if they have any record of it coming in to them?

I thought that too but maybe the same thing with data protection.
Kommando however did remind me where I’d heard of it. It was totally illegal however and was to do with nefarious activity to steal property be it cars or bikes and the methods that were used to gain info from corruptible individuals. There is masses of Aprilia owners who have never heard of AP or the dedicated forums which used to surprise me once upon a time but the bike may appear. Could ask on the numerous Aprilia Facebook pages if a user, maybe someone will put you in contact however you will probably receive more abuse than help from such places sadly.

You're right about data protection, and AP (or other sources) couldn't share the owner's details, but could share daveyr46's details with the new owner and see if they are interested in getting in touch, or direct them here. That would pose no problems from a data point of view. Has to be worth an ask.
