  • The suit is a replica-style design based on Viñales's Aprilia MotoGP 2024 livery in black, purple and red.
  • The listing specifies 1.2-1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide, removable dual-density armour (EN 1621-1:2012) and a removable spine protector compatible with EN 1621-2.
  • Four speed hump options, four perforation patterns and a removable thermal lining are offered.
  • One-piece or two-piece layouts and made-to-measure sizing are available.

Viñales and Aprilia at the 2024 British GP

Viñales scored the first Aprilia win of his career at the Americas Grand Prix in April 2024, the tenth victory of his MotoGP career and a first for a rider on three different manufacturers. At Silverstone in August he qualified eighth and finished 13th in the main race, won by Enea Bastianini (Wikipedia: 2024 British Grand Prix). The suit does not copy any garment he raced in; it is a rider-inspired design built around that season's Aprilia colours. More of his gear is listed under Maverick Vinales gear .

Livery and Design

The listing describes season-accurate Maverick Viñales Aprilia MotoGP 2024 livery in black, purple and red colourways. It is sold as a replica-style design and does not claim to be team equipment. The same Aprilia theme runs through the matching Maverick Vinales MotoGP boots , for riders who want a coordinated set.

Materials and Armour

  • Shell: 1.2-1.3 mm drum-dyed milled cowhide, with Monaco or kangaroo leather as upgrades
  • Armour: removable dual-density armour at the knees, shoulders and elbows to EN 1621-1:2012, plus a removable spine protector compatible with EN 1621-2
  • Sliders: external TPU elbow sliders and replaceable TPU knee sliders
  • Lining: polyester mesh as standard, with a removable thermal lining as an add-on

Under EN 1621-1, Level 1 means a mean transmitted force below 35 kN with no single value over 50 kN, and Level 2 a mean below 20 kN (Wikipedia: Motorcycle armour). The product page does not state a Level (1 or 2) for this armour, so confirm it before relying on it. The standard describes test results, so armour still needs to sit correctly over the joint.

Fit, Sizing and Options

The suit comes as a one-piece or two-piece layout. A speed hump can be left out or chosen as standard, ventilated or hydro, and perforation can be none, chest, front or full for temperature control. Made-to-measure sizing is available for riders who want a closer fit than standard sizes allow.

Who Is This Replica For?

The suit is aimed at track day riders, Aprilia and Viñales fans, and collectors of MotoGP replicas. Riders comparing Aprilia designs can look at the Aprilia race leathers , and other styles are collected under MotoGP race suits .

Frequently Asked Questions

Which race is the suit based on?

The suit is based on Maverick Viñales's Aprilia MotoGP 2024 look for the British Grand Prix, which took place at Silverstone on 4 August 2024. It is a replica-style design sold as rider-inspired gear, and does not claim to be the garment he raced in.

What armour is listed for the suit?

The listing specifies removable dual-density armour at the knees, shoulders and elbows to EN 1621-1:2012, plus a removable spine protector described as compatible with EN 1621-2. External TPU elbow sliders and replaceable TPU knee sliders are included in the listing. The listing does not state whether the armour is Level 1 or Level 2.

Can the suit be ordered as a two-piece?

Yes. The listing offers both one-piece and two-piece layouts, with made-to-measure sizing available. A two-piece suit lets a rider wear the jacket and pants separately, which can suit road riding as well as track days.

Did Viñales stay with Aprilia after 2024?

No. Viñales rode for Aprilia from 2021 to 2024 and signed with Red Bull KTM Tech3 as a factory rider for 2025, keeping his race number 12. The Aprilia suit therefore references a season at the end of his time with the Noale manufacturer.
