    Do your research before buying a new Aprilia RS125FP. I bought one and soon realised that the bike no longer produces 30 bhp+ and can not go at 100mph+. The forever tightening emissions laws restict the performance to 85mph and 10600rpm. There are tuning parts available like racing exaushsts and larger caburettors and so on but there is no point in fitting any of these parts unless you remap the ECU and as far as I am aware of an after market ECU that will let the bike rev over 10600rpm is only ...

    nice handling bike, very quick for a 125cc,good brakes.but all these good point's are cancelled out by the bad.not a day went by without my aprilia giving me a new problem to sort out- before people shout at me for not looking after her i ran her on full symthetic oil,she had a full rebuild when i brought her, and was never ragged because my mate owned her.list of the problems included- the ignition barrel packing in (i had to hot wire her to get her home), multiple electrical fault's, faulty cl ...

    The Aprilia RS 125cc is very fast and good in handling sharp corners.

    The Aprilia RS 125cc is a very nice bike, very fast, good fun for getting under boy racers skin, pasting them at lights when you've got L plates plastered all over it, nice ride .

    I love this bike, its my first bike, but i've had a go on an nsr, a mito and a kmx, beats them all, i'll find out soon enough whether its faster than a mito as my mates gettin one tomorrow, haha, we'll see.

    Great bike, I've had 12 differnt bikes now and this one is buy far my favorite, absolutely stunning, goes like hell, handles even better, just don't scream it constantly or it will seize up, as rs125s run quite hot, but if you give it some, then roll off the throttle for a while, and back on again it will be fine, needs new piston usealy around 9000km leve it longer youl need a new cylender and head too, so its worth getting done, maintain it, and it will be a great bike to own, dont maintain it ...

    If your a learner and want a speed machine buy a Honda NSR, the same proformance as the Aprilia with out the problems and a lot cheaper to buy second hand.

    Buy one you wont regret it. It's different from all the rest, anyone who's rode one will know what I'm on about. Good for learners, and it's a sexy looking bike.

    I have a 2007 rs 125 21kw and I dont have a bad word to say about it! Its never broke down on me because I keep it maintained the people who have probz with theres are the people who dont keep theres up together. Just things like, warming up before rideing, cleaning it, chain ajustment, oil changes, and the best two stoke oil. Remember the rs 125 is a high performence two stroke and needs a lot of care, if you dont no what your doing buy a cbr 125. If you do no what your doing you will have an ...

    Very comfortable in the corners and responsive, you have the confidence with the chunky tyres to really stick it into the corners. Genrally a very very good bike, all you'll ever want from a 125 and more, 5 star bike, Very temper mental, things go on them all the time, but its worth every penny

    Buy a full power version of the Aprilia RS125 as derestricting is expensive (you will need at least a 125, 33bhp licence). This machine is more fun than you think. Very light alloy frame. mine is 10 years old and I just can ' t bring myself to sell her. Advise buying the new Haynes manual. Keep on top of oil changes. Don ' t use cheap two stroke oil, with diablo tyres (my recommendation) and 60 miles to the gallon this is a winner with noticeable racing thoroughbred. Don ' t forget to let the en ...

    Overall the best small bike money can buy, I am now 26 and would get another one just for my commute to and from work fun, stylish and reliable and cheap second hand if you look around. Insurance and petrol costs are minimal and through the twisties I have kept up with many a big bike would definitely recommend an Aprilia rs125.

    I had own lots of bikes but the Aprilia RS125 is a problem bike, but maybe this is the fun of it? I think all owner's had change the spark plugs. But after the problem's it is a ver fun bike to ride.
    Better then R6, ZX6R, CBR250RR and NSR250SP which I own before.

    Coming from a 07 RM 250 two stroke I thought it might lack some power but boy was I wrong.
    For a 125cc this thing screems (2007 Unrestricted model). It more than fast enough to zip away from traffic at the lights and it still pulls hard on the freeway from 100kph. I am extremely impressed with this bike. It's performances level is well beyond what I expected.
    The riding position, race sound and cornering ability make you feel like a true Moto GP warrior when on this bike. For value and fun alone ...

    If you want it to last it needs to be warmed up well, then you cant floor it for miles upon miles upon miles, thats if you want it to last, so therefore only bad things very delicate, drinks petrol and oil like me or you can drink water, though this may just be me as I have race pipe, v force 3 reed block, 34mm carb and ram air filter as this does increase fuel consumption dramatically. Good points very fast for 125, feels great to ride, looks great!

    Well I've had my Aprilia rs125 2006 since october and what can I say.. . Amazing bike. The bike is fully learner legal so its only running at 11kw. I've raced a number of 125s including the Honda cbr125 Yamaha dt125, dtr125, ybr125 and a few imports and not 1 has been able to keep up.
    Theres note better than pullin up next a boy racer in a chaved up 1.2 and smoking him off the line. The bike hits 60 in about 9 secs and ive had mine to a 86mph on a flat piece of tarmac.
    The bike has only let me d ...
