Aprilia has revealed a one-off livery design fo𓄧r its RSV4 Superbike ahead of its home round of the 2014 World Superbike Championship at Misano, Italy.

Twenty-seven years after Loris Reggiani scored Aprilia's very first world championship win aroundও the Rimini circuit of Misano in the 1987 250GP class, the manufacturer has gone on to enjoy a wealth of success that ha💛s brought it dozens of titles.

The stats are certainly compelling: 38 championship titles in Motomondiale World Championship GP with 294 Grand Prix races won, 5 World Superbike titles with 42 race wins and another 9 world chamღpionship wreaths in off-road disciplines. The total number is 52 World Championships in the last 22 years.

To celebrate this, Aprilia's Marco Melandri and Sylvain Guinto⛄li will run special replica liveries at Misano this weekend, reflecting a similar design to that of Reggiani's bike in 1987. Furthermore, the mechanics, the team and the umbrella girls will be wearing a special T-shirt which is a re-edition of the 1987 shirt.

Aprilia comes to Misano following a hugely successful weekend last time out at༒ Sepang, whi♋ch saw a double 1-2 for the manufacturer.
