Hi All, I know these threads pop up periodically, so I'm sorry to add to the pile. It's a long shot, but curiosity has got the better of me.

I’m trying to track down my old bike — a 2006 Aprilia RSVR Factory (black/gold), reg LN06 CCA, with twin carbon Akrapovic cans.

I sold it via DWR (Dave Wood Racing) around 2013. It was still on the road as of 2019 (MOT history suggests it hadn’t entirely retired at that point), but I suspect it may have since migrated into trackday life or long-term garage storage.

It was a fairly standard Factory spec at the time — gold OZ wheels, Ohlins, carbon bits — but the Akras made it a little more obvious (and, apparently, “rear exhaust noisy” according to its last MOT, which sounds about right).

Not necessarily looking to buy it back, just mildly interested to know whether it’s still out there, in one piece, or living a louder and less lawful existence somewhere.

If anyone recognises it or has seen it around, I’d be interested to hear.
