The Aprilia RS4 50 was a small displacement sports motorcycle created by Italian engineers for the youngest among Aprilia fans. The bike had a unique look with the headlights mounted above the air intake and set new standards in style and technical content.
In 2013, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Aprilia RS4 50, the smallest displacement machine of the family. The 2013 model packed the same technical, visual, and performance specifications as the previous one without any modifications.
The bike had standard features in the visual department, such as a three-headlight system, a small windscreen, a two-piece dual seat, a single exhaust system, a dual-sided swingarm, and Y-shaped multi-spoke wheels.
Suspension-wise, the bike packed a 41 mm inverted fork on the front, providing 110 mm of travel, and a single shock absorber on the rear with 122 mm of travel, offering excellent suspension performance and handling capabilities.
As for the stopping power, the motorcycle's wheels were fitted with a 300 mm stainless steel brake rotor mounted on the front and coupled to a four-piston radial caliper. In contrast, the rear consisted of a 218 mm stainless steel disc tied to a single-piston caliper, offering excellent stopping power.
Regarding power, the 2013 Aprilia RS4 50 had its heartbeat set by a 49cc two-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine mounted underneath its fuel tank. It was married to a six-speed transmission and a final chain drive, spinning the rear wheel to 97 kph (60 mph).
