Aprilia RS50 ... wrap-around fairing, designed and tested in a wind tunnel. Thanks to its excellent CX, the RS 50 is capable of an impressive top speed despite its small engine size. The double 35 Watt headlight cluster provides excellent lighting and makes a major contribution to road safety. The characteristic aerodynamic tail completes the RS 50's racing image and also houses a spacious lockable storage compartment, ideal for carrying wheel locks and rainproofs. Thanks to the RS 50's low fuel consumption, the 13 litre fuel tank gives incredible autonomy. At the front end, the hydraulic action telescopic fork delivers reliable, safe, sports performance, with smooth riding and effective damping even on rough road surfaces. The 35 mm fork inners permit wheel travel of 110 mm and absorb all the stopping power the RS 50's powerful braking system can deliver. The six speed gearbox makes the most of the engine's high power and a large, easy to read rev counter makes it easy to change gear at just the right engine speed. Under its racing skin the Aprilia RS 50's exhaust hides the same respect for nature that you can find on all Aprilia motorbikes. The catalytic exhaust complies with EURO 1 specifications without penalising performance.

The aprilia rs50 is a fantastic looking bike, i bought the repsol replica about 4 months ago and the year is 2003 due to the plastic gear box i hear they have the gears jump around a little and when throtteling it it pops into neutral (not often) and redlines it until you change gear properly and you got to hope it stays there!! since i had the bike i found the gearbox is a main problem as it now crunches up and down the gears and will cost a lot to get a new one!! if it was working i would be out on it now as it is such a head turner it feels good to be the owner the gearbox and speedo are the only problems ive had and the speedo was ...

Premium Review Aprilia RS50 (Repsol Race Replica) (350 words)

My new Aprilia RS50 (the Repsol Race Replica version) was delivered last week. First impressions on riding it (it's still restricted) was that it is one hell of a lot faster than I had ever expected. I was expecting a bike that would struggle to reach 33mph. The fact was that after a few miles were under it's belt, it was reaching 45mph quickly and easily and there was still plenty in reserve. The bike really and truly looks the part. It has a proper race frame, and everything about it screams that this is a race bike with a small engine, and not the sports moped of the kind that I'd seen while looking for a small bike to buy for my son who ...

It'll do anything you ask of it, better than you could even imagine clocks a bit basic, no standard luggage options, but who cares?
