The fuel efficiency for its size has been surprisingly good. Not as frugal as a 125cc, but the extra performance for the little bit extra fuel consumption is worth it.

As for gas guzzlers, the STX 160 is a gas guzzler compared to the smaller scooters. Fuel economy is not your priority.

How you ride it is all. If you're always trying to push the performance, then it'll drink more fuel. However, when ridden sensibly, it’s very efficient.

It's spot on in terms of performance to efficiency. You get the extra power when you need it, and it doesn't cost you much at the pump.

It has been quite thirsty in stop and go traffic. It's more efficient out of town, but more costly in the city.

It’s not class leading in fuel efficiency, but it’s decent enough. It's fair in my book because you're trading some economy for performance.

For its performance level, it’s more efficient than I expected it to be. Aprilia have done a good job of getting the power and the economy right.
On long rides, how does the Aprilia STX 160 fare in terms of comfort, compared to daily commutes?

It’s super comfortable for a daily commute. The seat is a bit hard on longer rides, however. For touring, I would recommend an aftermarket seat.

I like it for both short and long rides. On highways, the upright position and good wind protection make a big difference.

The suspension is too stiff for long rides, but it’s great for commuting. After a couple of hours my back starts to ache.

The scooter has a top notch comfort level. I have done 300km days with no problem. It’s about taking small breaks.

It’s fine for daily commutes, but not for long distance comfort. Touring is lacking adjustable suspension.

For longer rides I actually prefer it. It is more comfortable than small scooters on highways because of its stability at higher speeds.

The weak point is the stock seat. After upgrading to a gel seat, it’s comfortable for short and long rides alike.

It's a mixed bag. Great in cities but the vibrations start coming through more in longer highway stretches.

For rides up to about 2 hours it is perfectly comfortable. That, however, is where you begin to understand the limitations of a scooter platform.

It’s a nice comfortable bike, but it’s no touring bike. Urban rides with occasional longer trips are really what it’s best suited for, not dedicated touring.
