DID IT START? RSV1000R APRILIA RESCUE
WORDS/PHOTOS – PICKO

IN LAST MONTH’S SAGA of the Aprilia RSV1000R rescue, I thought I’d bought a lemon. This may still be the case, but I thought I would simply replace the missing battery, and all would be right in the world of Aprilia ownership. This was not to be and would send me on a quest to find fuel filters, fuel hose, good hose clamps and other things not easily found at Supercheap.
