The Aprilia RS 125 is a high-performance, single-cylinder, two-stroke motorcycle that was produced by the Italian manufacturer Aprilia from 1998 to 2005. It was known for its aggressive styling, lightweight design, and impressive power-to-weight ratio, making it a popular choice for both track days and road use. The 2000 model year RS 125, specifically, was a refined iteration of the original, featuring improvements to both the engine and chassis. The 124cc engine boasted a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder design with a reed valve induction system. This configuration allowed for a surprisingly potent power output, exceeding 30 horsepower, coupled with an exhilarating engine note that was characteristic of two-stroke motorcycles.
The Aprilia RS 125's chassis was a testament to its racing heritage. It featured a lightweight aluminum frame, telescopic front forks, and a single rear shock absorber. Combined with the powerful engine, this setup provided an agile and responsive riding experience. The RS 125 was equipped with a 17-inch front and rear wheel setup, offering both stability and handling prowess. The 2000 model year saw the introduction of a new rear swingarm with a revised geometry, resulting in improved handling and stability, especially at high speeds. The RS 125 was a true embodiment of Aprilia's commitment to racing heritage and performance, offering a thrilling and rewarding ride for both experienced riders and those seeking an adrenaline-pumping introduction to the world of motorcycles.
