Unveiling the RS125 GP Replica
Aprilia has launched the RS125 GP Replica, a model designed for younger enthusiasts eager to embrace racing culture. This small-capacity sportsbike is inspired by Aprilia’s race-winning prototypes, specifically honoring Marco Bezzecchi and MotoGP World Champion Jorge Martin. With a price tag of £5,380, this bike is set to captivate both new and young riders.
Performance and Specifications
The RS125 GP Replica retains the same impressive powertrain as the standard £5,230 RS125. It houses a liquid-cooled single cylinder engine, generating an A1 class-leading 14.8bhp at 10,500rpm, along with a torque of 8.5lb.ft at 8,500rpm. Recently updated for Euro5 compliance, the bike feeds on a 14.5-litre fuel tank designed to extend your rides.
Design Features and Technology
With a striking matte black finish, the aluminium beam frame complements the factory MotoGP team’s aesthetic. The bike showcases sponsor logos akin to the RS-GP25 race bike, blended with vibrant red and purple accents. Notably, the RS125 GP Replica comes equipped with a quickshifter, enhancing the riding experience, while the passenger seat has been replaced with a sleek plastic cover to maintain its sporty silhouette.
Riding comfort is ensured with a manageable seat height of 820mm, and riders will find an under-seat storage compartment suitable for an eight-inch device. Aprilia has included advanced technology like dual-channel ABS, a traction control system, and mobile connectivity through the Aprilia Mia multimedia system, reinforcing the bike’s tech-savvy nature.
