It's okay, but not great. I'd like the turning radius to be wider too, as it can be annoying trying to make U turns or drive in tight lanes.

I am a daily commuter and love it. Those long traffic jams are much less bearable with a comfortable riding position and smooth engine.

I switched from Activa, the SXR 125 is not as nimble, but I feel safer on it. The bigger wheels and better brakes are also giving me more confidence in unpredictable traffic.

It's a mixed bag. Wider roads and flyovers are great but really congested areas can be a handful. You have to think a little more ahead.

Firm side, but I love it. It really lets you feel the road, and gives great feedback. Plus, it’s good at handling those unexpected potholes!

Too stiff for my liking. After long rides, and especially on bad roads, my back hurts. I wish they had done a softer setup.

It's a good balance, I think. Not so harsh that is makes it uncomfortable, but sporty enough to be fun. On really bad stretches, you just need to slow down a bit.

It's been pretty capable, I've found. The ride is smoothed out by the larger wheels, and it soaks up small bumps well. It is definitely more planted than my old Activa.

It's honestly overkill for most Indian roads. It handles well, yeah, but how much sportiness do you really need for your daily commute?

It handles speed breakers so well that I love it. It has decent ground clearance and doesn’t sound like some other scooters scraping.

It's a mixed bag. Good on good roads, but harsh on really bad patches. When things get rough, I've learned to stand up a bit on the footboard.

It's surprisingly good for a maxi scooter. It has a longer wheelbase, which helps with stability, and doesn't bottom out as I thought it would.
Is the Aprilia SXR 125 a reliable long distance tourer?

The SXR 125 has been a blast, I've done a few 300km round trips on it. Good wind protection, comfortable seating and enough pep for highway cruising. All you need to do is pack lightly and plan your fuel stop.

Are you kidding? It’s a city scooter, not a tourer. It has a small fuel tank and storage and is not practical for long rides. Stick to short trips.

It's surprisingly capable! I added a top box for extra storage, and it does weekend getaways like a champ. It rides great for long distances.

I wouldn't risk it. Out in the sticks Aprilia's service network is poor. Breaking down in the middle of nowhere is a headache.

It’s not great, but it can be done. I’ve toured on mine and while it’s not as effortless as a bigger bike, it is fun in its own way. Be prepared to stop more often.

At highway speeds, the engine's stressed a bit, and the fuel efficiency suffers. For long distances I'd say no, but for short tours maybe it's ok.

I love touring on my SXR 125! It’s comfortable, efficient, head turner, wherever I go. You just need to invest in some good luggage solutions and you’re good to go.
At Rs 1.26 lakh (ex showroom, New Delhi) does the Aprilia SXR 125 justify the premium price tag?
16 January 2025 11:18
Absolutely worth it! It's a head turner and with Italian design flair you're paying for it. And the ride quality is fantastic too. It feels like getting a slice of Europe on Indian roads.
