Aprilia RX 125/SX 125 Review

This is one of the more popular models that have been found in the Dual-Purpose motorbike market today. There are many reasons why the RX125/SX125 family of motorbikes is popular in today’s market. One thing is the ability of the power can be throttled from a single engine. The 122cc2 stroke is a force to be reckoned with. Unfortunately today with the more stringent pollution laws this motorbike cannot be sold just by using the engines.

In 2018 there will be a new 125cc 4-cylinder engine that will have a torque of 10.9 Nm and maximum of 15 horsepower, the heart and soul of the new Aprilia. It is a motorbike that Aprilia wants to use to teleport riders back to their teen years. It is a motorbike that is made by an Italian manufacturer and is the only one to sport an ABS braking system.

In addition to the big change to the engine of the Aprilia RX 125/SX 125 some of the other changes include:

• Suspension system—it has a single-coil rear shock absorber with a swing arm and a 41 mm rear shock absorber.
• Braking system—with this model it will be using disc brakes with 220 mm in the rear and 300 mm in the front with floating calipers. The SX 125 will have a plain plate of equal size.  
• Back of the tire—it will be different according to how you will use the tires. The SX 125 will get a set of smooth rubber tires 130/70-17 and 100/80-17. The RX 125 will have tires 120/80-18 and 90/90-12.
• Sprockets—the SX 125 will have 62-teeth and the RX 125 with have 69-teeth

The Aprilia has had a lot of success in off road-competitions and with this new model, both the RX125 and SX 125 offers a more powerful performance along with a sophisticated design, and technology that is far advanced. It is the type of motorbike that a person wants who wants to stand out from every other mototbike.
