The Aprilia Magnet concept was the Transport Design Degree project of Heikki Naulapää, a 2004 student of the Royal College of Art.

The Aprilia Magnet concept is based around the idea of rider sensation. Naulapää wanted to create a vehicle which offered a new kind of experience while riding. With the Magnet concept he mixed the leaning characteristics associated with motorbikes, with a formula 1 style driving position and small sports car feeling with instruments and "being half-inside".
