The Aprilia Classic and Aprilia Red Rose were two cruiser-styled motorcycles made by Aprilia between 1988 and 2002. The Aprilia Red Rose was the first model in the series, released in 1988, while the Aprilia Classic was in the second series made in 1992.

The Aprilia Classic was presented in 1991 at the EICMA Show, a model part of the second series that featured a lower and more modern package and a very low tapered-style exhaust system, just like the ones on Harley-Davidson models.

The Aprilia Red Rose was introduced in November 1987 at the Milan Show and launched in 1988 in 50cc and 125cc versions. Besides the two displacement engines, the bikes also differed in colors. As for power, the Red Rose was equipped with a single-cylinder liquid-cooled Rotax engine for both displacements.

In 1992, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the Aprilia Classic 125, a classic-style cruiser motorcycle in its first year of production. The bike was perfect for novice riders who wanted a fuel-efficient traditional American machine.

The power of the 1992 Aprilia Classic 125 came from a 124cc two-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 15 hp with a peak force at 6,600 rpm and 14 Nm (10 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.

The engine's power was transferred to a six-speed manual gearbox that sent it to the rear axle via a final chain drive, launching the motorcycle to a top speed of 114 kph (71 mph).
