1996 Aprilia 650cc Moto 6. 5
Registration no. N494 OGH
Frame no. ZD4MHthe details below
Engine no. 223523
Widely recognised as a motorcycling design icon, the Aprilia Moto 6. 5 was created by Philippe Starck, the famous French industrial designer whose portfolio ranges from wind turbines to lemon squeezers, which perhaps explains its passing resemblance to one of his kitchen appliances. Introduced in 1995, the Moto 6. 5 was powered by the Aprilia Pegaso's five-valve single, which went into a curvaceous bespoke frame. With 42bhp on tap, a low seat and weighing a mere 150kg (331lb) Starck's Moto 6. 5 effectively fulfilled Aprilia's brief to produce a chic and user-friendly urban roadster. Production ceased in 2002.
First registered in the UK in 2001 and owned by the vendor since 2017, this example has a total of 23, 602km showing on the odometer. Last run in 2018, the machine will require re-commissioning before further use and is sold strictly as viewed. Offered with sundry bills, an expired MoT (2018) and a V5C document, it has the (rare) luggage rack and comes with a spare fuel tank.
