    I can't believe it has stock pipes on it, and WTF were Aprilia thinking of releasing the Nera with them on in the first place.

    I do believe that they are titanium cans, so really they are not RSVR stock.

    +1 on the location and the for sale price, if applicable...

    I'm in there most weeks and its only just materialised, the guys made a point of showing it to me, knowing the reaction they'd get.
    Not for sale. Apparantley the owner paid NZ$60,000.00 for it. Its literally just tucked away in the back row of bikes, all covered in dust.

    And yeah tdogg, they're the Titanium cans

    all the body work including tank are carbon fibre, wheels aren't forged mags like the factory, even lighter. limited edition. a rare few got leathers with it. Ti pipes where the std and factory got the same
    the unique frame color which imho is better than the gold the newer bikes have

    1 nera wheel almost costs the same as 2 factory OZ's

    Wiki:
    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 104 kW (141.4 PS/139.5 bhp) @ 10,000 rpm.[3] Only 200 RSV 1000 R Nera motorcycles were made.
