In 1998, the Aprilia RSV Mille was introduced by Aprilia as a race-replica sports motorcycle manufactured until 2003, when it was replaced by the Aprilia RSV1000R. It was available in RSV Mille, RSV Mille R, and RSV Mille SP versions.
In addition, the maker introduced two replicas, one in 2002 as the RSV Mille R Haga Replica, made in 300 units, and the RSV Mille Edwards Replica in 2003. The bikes had special liveries and a race kit.
In 2003, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia RSV Mille R Edwards Replica. This machine had its livery inspired by the Aprilia RS Cube MotoGP motorcycle ridden by Colin Edwards.
As with the Haga replica, the Edwards version came with a circuit kit with an Akrapovich exhaust system, a more pressurized airbox, an Epron injection system, and 57 mm throttle bodies instead of 51 mm ones.
In the performance department, the 2003 Aprilia RSV Mille R Edwards Replica had installed a 998cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine underneath its fuel tank, boasting 138 hp with a peak force at 9,500 rpm and 107 Nm (79 lb-ft) torque at 5,500 rpm.
For suspension, the bike packed a 43 mm upside-down adjustable Ohlins fork on the front and an adjustable Ohlins shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling. Sa o caut 2003 sa trec Replica, Sa schimb puterea
