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.

No way, man. For that price you could buy a decent 150cc motorcycle. In the long run the maintenance costs are gonna bleed you dry.

That depends on what you’re looking for. If you want something different and are willing to spend a bit extra on it, go right ahead. However, if practicality is what you’re after, there are better options.

I’ve had mine for a year and I do not regret it one bit. It still turns heads whenever I go and the build quality is solid. Worth every rupee!

Overpriced, if you ask me. Yeah, sure it’s looking good, but at the end of the day it’s still just a 125cc scooter. You’re paying a premium for the badge.

For the right buyer, I think it’s worth it. If you like design and want something that doesn’t blend in with the sea of Activas and Jupiters, the SXR 125 is a good option.

It’s very expensive, but you do get what you pay for. The components themselves and overall fit and finish are a notch above the competition.
Is the Aprilia SXR 160 a bike for new riders, or is it too powerful for beginners?
16 January 2025 11:13
I rode the SXR 160 first and I feel it is a good beginner scooter. It's not overwhelming, but the power is there when you need it. But the stability actually helped me feel more confident as a new rider.

For a complete newbie, it is just too much. If you haven’t ridden before, it can be hard to manage the weight and power. It’s better to start small and work your way up.
