Aprilia RS 125

Aggressive, decisive, and with plenty of character to express its dynamic, lightweight nature in a personal, unique style that typifies Italian passion for motorcycle racing. For years the Aprilia RS 125 has been unbeaten on the 125 Sport Production racing circuit.

The Aprilia RS 125 comes in two versions, Poggiali Replica and Aprilia Black, both destined to reinforce the market leadership of the RS 125, Europe's best selling road sports bike. The Aprilia RS 125 brings the under 18 rider the best the European motorcycle market has to offer in terms of equipment and technology.

The sporty lines of the RS 125 are the result of painstaking design and advanced aerodynamic research. Fruit of extensive wind tunnel testing, the aerodynamic form ensures total protection and minimum air resistance, giving a whole series of advantages including reduced fuel consumption and optimised performance under all conditions.

The RS 125 aerodynamic fairing and windshield, with integrated hand guards to eliminate all turbulence, allow the rider to really make the most of the incredible speed and performance of this bike. The styling of the front mudguard matches the rest of the bodywork. The RS 125 is proof that perfect aerodynamics mean stability and safety at high speed.

The headlight cluster features a multi-focal double lamp unit and gives the RS 125 an original, eye-catching appearance. Naturally, as well as looking good, the RS 125 headlight cluster also adds to active safety during night-time riding and guarantees instant visibility in the day.

The tail not only improves aerodynamic penetration but also incorporates a spacious lockable storage compartment to house items like locks and rainproofs.

The passenger seat is integrated in the tail to avoid spoiling the clean, streamlined lines of the RS 125. The tail is mounted on an extremely lightweight rear frame.
