Joeman Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 I thought so but didn't want to say as its a 2stroke aprila and I know there fast but not that quick ,The two stroke aprilia 125cc bikes will do 100mph if de-restricted.I had one and was clocked by a couple of mates in cars at over 100mph.Derestricted they are about 32 to 34 bhp so pretty pokey with a great powerband!

barker Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 bloody hell good job I never said anything , how do they manage to get that much speed out of a 125 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeman Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 bloody hell good job I never said anything , how do they manage to get that much speed out of a 125The motor in mine was a Rotax engine. Basically a racing engine. Not hugely reliable but great fun when running!34bhp in a bike that weight so little with a low drag coefficient means high speeds are possible.Edit:108mph..http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/model/aprilia/aprilia_af1_125_sports_pro%2092.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tuktuk Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 My first bike was the rs125 with all the valve mods etc. They have some pull when on the powerband and handle great being so light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goody Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 My son had an 08 prilla rs125 that would do a ton easily and to this day I'd say it was one of the best handling bikes I've rode awesome bit of kit,I must admit I still lust after the rs 250 knew I should of got yrs ago (chesterfield colours) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the RS250 came out, i asked them if my dealer discount would apply to a new bike and they said it would.... Biggest mistake i ever made was not buying the RS250 with my dealer discount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westbeef Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 I always wanted the RS125, now if I got a second 125 to commute on I'd be very tempted to get the RS4 125 . Shame they haven't put the power into it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
