Aprilia RS 125 ABS 2018

For supersport fans in the A1 class, the Aprilia RS 125 is definitely a hot candidate. Thanks to its high-quality chassis and well thought-out suspension set-up, it appears stable in every situation and rewards with higher cornering speed than the competition. Its looks are reminiscent of its big sister RSV4, because if you overlook the rear tyre, there is a serious risk of confusion! Compared to its V4 sister, however, the RS125 scores with a very comfortable riding position that keeps wrist pain to a minimum in everyday use.
