Zorro, those forks are the standard Factory forks with the Ohlins pressurized cartridges installed, not the full fledged superbike forks that are actually used in WSBK. This bike is pretty bad ass though, would make an amazing track day toy. I don't know of any other company that will allow you to order any of the corse parts through a local dealer.
Foiled by the cartridges!

The cartridges are gas pressurized and I believe they are set up to have one leg handle compression and the other leg handle rebound, but they are not the same forks with the external cylinders that are used on Biaggi's actual bike. The Ohlins FGR000 forks are probably closer to what's on Biaggi bike. Either way, this thing is pretty sweet, wouldn't mind owning one. And as I mention earlier, any part that you see on Biaggis bike can be ordered through the Aprilia Corse department. They even publish the part numbers. Pretty sweet that they do that.
