APRILIA RS 125 (1999-2000) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Aprilia RS 125 was a Grand Prix-derived, small displacement sports production replica manufactured by Aprilia in 1992 to replace the Aprilia AF1. It was made until 2010, when it was replaced by the Aprilia RS4 125.

In 1996, a new version of the RS 125 was released without the "Extrema" designation, which retained much of its predecessor appearance but with several differences. Some notable differences included a new, improved Rotax 122 engine, air intakes integrated into the upper portion of the middle fairing, a rounded headlight, and a digital gauge in place of the temperature gauge.

In 1999, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Aprilia RS 125, a small displacement sports replica that was again revised. Some modifications included more rounded and bulbous fairings, a single air duct on the right-hand side, a larger lip on the headlight, and five-spoke rims.

Aesthetically, the bike was fitted with standard features, such as a full fairing, a medium-sized windscreen, a two-piece dual seat, a single exhaust system with a silencer mounted on the left-hand side, and five-spoke alloy wheels.

The 1999 Aprilia RS 125 was powered by a 124cc two-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fed by a Dell'Orto carburetor. As for the power figures, the engine boasted 34 hp with maximum strength at 11,250 rpm and 20 Nm (15 lb-ft) torque at 10,000 rpm.
