Aprilia RS4 125 Review

31 Jan, 2019 11:29 AM

Quick Review by Maxabout Team

The Aprilia RS4 125 can be simply called the true winner out of all the 125 cc race bikes available out there. The simple reason making it the best out of all is its smooth power delivery and reliable performance figures. The bike looks much more than what it really has below the fairing as its sharp design and powerful attitude has no substitute. The RS4 125 comes with a futuristic design, making it much more attractive than all the others in the segment. The looks can fool anyone to believe that the bike is a 600 cc machine with an ultra-light frame and high-performance output. The reality is far away from that, but in its segment, it still rocks the charts.

Aprilia equips the little machine with a 124.2 cc, liquid cooled, fuel injected engine which in turn produces 14.8 BHP and 10.9 NM of torque. The bike needs to be kept above 8000 rpm on the race time as going below creates some power delivery lag. The best a 125 cc can give is truly achieved from this little monster.

The bike gets a 300mm stainless steel disc with radial 4 piston caliper for the front and a smaller sized 218mm stainless steel disc with a single 30mm piston for the rear. The front gets a 41 mm up-side down forks whereas the rear gets a hydraulic mono-shock absorber. Front tyre size is 110/80-R17 whereas the rear gets a 130/70-R17. The whole setup makes it race ready and it conquers everything in its way. The Aprilia RS4 125 comes in White with Grey and Black with Orange shade. The estimated price, if it ever arrives in India is INR 1.25 Lakhs. The price ends all the possibilities as buying a 125 cc bike for this price seems impossible in the country.
