The Aprilia RSV 1000 R was a sports motorcycle made by Aprilia in 2004 as a replacement model for the RSV Mille and continued production until 2010, when it was replaced by the Aprilia RSV4. It was available in three versions: the RSV 1000 R standard version, the higher-spec RSV 1000 Factory, and the limited edition RSV 1000 R Nera.
In 2004, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia RSV 1000 R, a sports motorcycle in its first year of production that replaced the RSV Mille from 1998 to 2003. Besides the new name, the bike also received a new style.
