Hell yeah as a weekend toy or second bike though. However, not the best choice for someone who’s a daily commuter or on a strict budget.

The quarter liter class is being brought to life by the GPR 250. I am happy that Aprilia is shaking things up, even if it’s not perfect.
How does the Aprilia GPR 250 compare to the RS4 125?

The GPR 250 is a massive step up. It has more power, better tech, and it feels like a proper sports bike for the first time, rather than a sporty 125.

The RS4 125 is what I miss: its simplicity. The GPR 250 is over engineered for what it is and I bet it'll be a nightmare to work on.

They are totally different beasts. The GPR 250 is more of a mini superbike, but the RS4 was a great learner bike. It's not a direct replacement, it's an evolution.

On paper, the GPR 250 looks better, but the RS4 125 had a charm that is hard to repeat. More doesn’t always mean better.

As an RS4 125 owner, I can say the GPR 250 feels like a more mature bike. The show has grown up with its audience.

The RS4 was easier for new riders to get into. It looks like the GPR 250 is aimed at a different crowd — perhaps the 125s stepping up.

They are both great in their own right. The GPR 250 is what we need now, the RS4 was perfect for its time. It's all about context.
Can Aprilia’s GPR 250 be as reliable as Japanese rivals?
16 January 2025 08:01
No way. The 250cc class is decades of refinement on the part of Japanese bikes. This is still new to Aprilia.

We don’t have long term data yet, so it’s not fair to judge. Who knows, the GPR 250 might actually surprise us all and be reliable.

Reliability isn’t just about the bike not breaking down. It’s also about parts availability and service network. There's some catching up for Aprilia to do there.
Can Aprilia’s GPR 250 be as reliable as Japanese rivals?

The playing field has been leveled by modern manufacturing techniques. These days I'd trust a new Aprilia just as much as a Japanese bike.

For the first couple of years it will probably be fine, but long term ownership is probably where the differences will show up.

But who cares about reliability when you’re riding something with this much character? Live a little!

I think it should be reliable enough for most riders. The real question is whether the extra maintenance costs are worth the Aprilia badge.
What do GPR 150 owners do to improve performance and comfort?
16 January 2025 07:56
The first thing I did was swap the exhaust. The stock one is way too quiet and an aftermarket pipe really wakes up the engine.
What do GPR 150 owners do to improve performance and comfort?

Adjustable levers are a must. Adjustables make a huge difference in comfort and the stock ones are too far for my small hands.
What do GPR 150 owners do to improve performance and comfort?

I also added frame sliders and a tail tidy. They're not performance mods, but they really make the bike look so much better.

A lot of guys will take a full ECU reflash. It flattens the power delivery and blesses with a little power throughout the rev range.
