The Aprilia RS 125 was a Grand Prix-derived, small displacement sports production replica made by Aprilia in 1992 to replace the Aprilia AF1. It was produced until 2010, when it was replaced by the Aprilia RS4 125.
Between 1992 and 1995, the bike had an angular tail section, a swept front fairing, a square headlight, three-spoke wheels, an electric starter or kickstart, and analog gauges. In this year's range, there was only one model that denoted RS 125 R on the fuel tank, which was painted red and black.
In 1996, the bike had its first revision that included a new, improved Rotax 122 engine, air intakes integrated into the upper portion of the middle fairing, a rounded headlight, and a digital gauge in place of the temperature gauge. In addition, the "Extrema" designation was dropped.
In 1999, a revised version of the model was released, which included modifications, such as more rounded and bulbous fairings, a single air duct on the right-hand side, a larger lip on the headlight, and five-spoke rims.
In 2002, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Aprilia RS 125, a small-displacement sports replica that came with the same package as previous ones without any changes whatsoever.
As for the power figures, the 2002 Aprilia RS 125 had installed a 124cc two-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine underneath its fairing, delivering 34 hp at 11,250 rpm and 20 Nm (15 lb-ft) torque at 10,000 rpm.
