Description
Please note: This bike is being re-listed due to a non-paying bidder. That bidder has been banned from participating in future auctions, and Iconic sincerely apologizes for the inconvenience.
From Adam: “It doesn’t happen often but we take it VERY Seriously when auctions do not fund. In this case, the buyers fee was captured, the winning bidder has been banned and, unlike our competitor, we will not show it as a sale. I must say… I’m big into “signs,” so I feel like the world is telling me to keep this one. However, I have some really exciting things planned for Iconic, so I need to continue to put personal investments into my Dream Company… Iconic! If it falls short on the reserve, I’ll be happy to change the plan as I sure love this one, it’s the perfect bike IMO.”
If you’ve been following Iconic for some time, you’ll know that Adam acquired this Aprilia to be his personal bike. From Adam: “I’m quite sure this listing will open up some comments from my mates about how I mentioned “I’m not selling this one!” I most certainly LOVE this bike and had every intention of keeping it. After all, it’s the first time in many years that I’ve put a bike in my name, insured it, and customized it to my preference (BST carbon fiber wheels, Akrapovič exhaust, and a bunch of Spider items, etc.).
Fact is, my wife and I are going ALL IN on Iconic Motorbikes & Pinacoteca. We hired 3 more people for our prop house and I have big plans for Iconic as evidenced by the recent stock offering, new divisions, etc.
After all… I have a constant stream of bikes to test and try out for Iconic, so the funds from this sale will help support our brand. That’s priority ONE.
Someone will get an amazing bike and YES… I’ll miss this one more than most!”

After a decade of producing its flagship V-Twin platform, Aprilia introduced its all-new RSV4 superbike in 2009. Built to compete in the 2009 World Superbike Championship series, the model was Aprilia’s first-ever four-cylinder offering.
At the time, the RSV4’s chassis represented the latest in Aprilia’s line of Grand Prix-bred aluminum twin-spar frames. The trick twin-beam unit was constructed from a hybrid of cast and pressed sheet sections, offering the optimal balance of strength and rigidity. Equally race-inspired and derived from the same manufacturing techniques was the RSV4’s double-arch aluminum swingarm.
In 2019, Aprilia updated the RSV4 with the same 1,078cc 65-degree V-4 found in its Tuono 1100. Thanks to an increased bore (up from 78mm to 81mm), a 13.6:1 compression ratio, and an additional oil pump, the block generated a respectable 217hp at 13,200rpm and some 90lb-ft of torque at 11,000rpm. To keep its impressive powerplant in check, the RSV4 also benefitted from a suite of top shelf components and rider aids. Suspension duties were handled via a set of NIX 43mm inverted forks and a TTX piggyback shock, while braking was taken care of thanks to some four-pot Brembo Stylema calipers. And here’s the thing: because of Aprilia’s APRC electronics package, riders got cornering ABS, three engine map modes, as well as eight different levels of traction control, wheelie control, launch control, and even cruise control.
Sweetening the deal even further was the RSV4’s gorgeous Italian bodywork. The sharp symmetrical front fairing and angular tail section have been so unanimously adored, that — much like the iconic Tamburini-designed MV F4 — even after more than a decade since the bike’s initial release, Aprilia has done very little to update its looks (aside from the addition of winglets).
Manufactured March 2020, this example is VIN: ZD4KEUA13LM000181. Adam acquired the bike from a client who had purchased it used from Pro Italia.
The odometer shows 2,552 miles.
Maintenance:
When Adam acquired the bike, he had Brian of BKM creations re-clear the BST carbon fiber wheels to match the rest of the carbon fiber bodywork. Additionally, our service department installed the Akrapovič slip-on exhaust as well as the Spider accessories you’ll see in the Modifications section below.
