2013 APRILIA RRV450 RACING MOTORCYCLE
FRAME NO. NONE
ENGINE NO. 45SX 02110
This machine is one of approximately 50 built by Ian Newton (IN Competition) for the Thundersport GB Aprilia RRV450 Challenge race series. This particular machine has the highest specification permitted under the regulations. Its one previous owner was Lewis Rollo, who won many races on it prior to a crash in 2014. As a result of the damage, IN Competition replaced the frame with a new one. Present owner Paddy Reid, winner of the 1973 Senior Manx GP, bought the Aprilia intending to use it for track days, and it has also been raced for him on two occasions by a young rider from Northern Ireland. Sadly, a broken leg sustained in a cycling accident a few years ago has put a stop to Paddy's participation in such events. Last run earlier this year and always maintained to the highest standard regardless of cost, the machine is described as in good condition throughout.
