Overview

Introducing the 2018 Aprilia RS 125 Replica GP, a striking motorcycle that embodies the spirit of racing and the essence of Italian craftsmanship. Positioned in the sport category, this machine is designed for riders who are eager to experience the adrenaline of track-like performance in a lightweight, nimble package. With its aggressive styling inspired by Aprilia's GP racing lineage, the RS 125 captures attention on the road, making it a standout choice for both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts looking for a spirited commuter or a fun weekend ride. At the heart of the RS 125 lies a robust single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a thrilling 15.00 HP at 10,500 RPM. This finely-tuned powerplant, with a compression ratio of 12.5:1 and a bore/stroke ratio of 58.0 x 47.0 mm, ensures not only responsive acceleration but also a smooth and exhilarating ride. Riders will appreciate the torque of 10.90 Nm at 8,250 RPM, which provides ample power for both city commuting and spirited cornering on winding roads. The six-speed gearbox, combined with a multi-plate clutch in an oil bath, offers seamless gear shifts, enhancing the overall riding experience and allowing riders to fully immerse themselves in the thrill of the ride. The RS 125 is packed with advanced features that elevate its performance and handling. The aluminum perimeter frame is both lightweight and rigid, contributing to the motorcycle's agility and stability. The suspension setup, featuring an upside-down hydraulic fork at the front and an asymmetric swingarm with an adjustable monoshock at the rear, delivers exceptional handling and comfort, with front and rear travel of 110 mm and 130 mm, respectively. The braking system is equally impressive, equipped with a single 300 mm stainless steel disc and a radial 4-piston caliper at the front, ensuring precise stopping power. With a fuel capacity of 14.50 liters and a weight of just 120 kg, the RS 125 is not only easy to maneuver but also offers a commendable range, making it a versatile choice for riders. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: At just 120 kg, the RS 125 is exceptionally maneuverable, making it ideal for urban riding and twisty backroads.
  • Racing Inspired Design: With its striking aesthetic and GP-inspired styling, it turns heads and delivers a premium feel.
  • Advanced Suspension and Brakes: The high-quality suspension and braking components provide excellent handling and stopping power, enhancing rider confidence.

Cons

  • Limited Power for Experienced Riders: While 15 HP is adequate for new riders, seasoned motorcyclists may find it lacks the punch for more aggressive riding.
  • Seat Height May Not Suit Everyone: The seat height of 820 mm may be challenging for shorter riders, potentially affecting comfort and control.
  • Narrow Focus: Tailored primarily for sport riding, the RS 125 may not be the best choice for long-distance touring or everyday practicality due to its aggressive riding position and limited storage options.
