In 1997, the Italian bike maker released the Aprilia Classic 125, a classic-style machine that suited riders of all ages and experience levels. It packed the exact technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous model without any modifications.

The Aprilia Classic and Aprilia Red Rose were two 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 125 was presented at the 1991 EICMA Show and put into production since 1992. Compared to the previous series, the Classic version featured a lower and more modern package and a very low tapered-style exhaust system, just like the ones on Harley-Davidson models.

The bike had standard features, such as a round headlight upfront, a 33-degree raked front fork, a dual seat, an engine cover, dual side-mounted shock absorbers on the rear, a single exhaust system, and wire-spoke wheels.

In the performance department, the 1997 Aprilia Classic 125 had a 124cc two-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine installed at its core. It was paired to a Dell'Orto carburetor and delivered 15 hp with a peak force at 6,600 rpm and 14 Nm (10 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.

The bike's power was sent to the rear wheel via a six-speed manual transmission and a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 114 kph (71 mph).
