Its a Full Power Aprilia RS125 1999 Valentino Rossi Replica.
It has low mileage, just shy of 5500miles but it looks like it as way more. It has been sitting in a wooden shed for about 4 years with a blanket thrown over it. The shed was not insulated so the bike got the full effects of the damp cold of the winters and the warm humidity of the summers.
The alloys of the frame and engine are well corroded and oxidised as is the sub frames which are showing off their lovely rust.
The plan is to restore this machine to its original [or as close to it] state.
So as it stands now it is in my garage ready for the onslaught.
These images were taken yesterday with an Olympus OM10 film camera on Expired Kodak Gold 100 and developed in my sink :-)
