Advantages: Good looking, very good handling, actually has a gear box

Disadvantages: very unrelaible when you start to chase performance

The apprilla rs 50 is a very good looking bike, i have heads turning all the time as i ride around the town, not surprisingly tho as it has a arrow race can and sounds amazing, it has been mistaken by riders at bike meetings as being a 125 and even a 250, when brought standerd/derestricted is very very reliable and does about 60mph as it redlines in top gear. Once you start chasing performance, the bike stops bein reliable, my bike is for fun not transport and has a 80cc kit, 24mm carb, race reed valves, race crank, race bearings and race exhaust, it is very very fast and does about 80mph at the redline, however breaks down every week or so. if you want a fast fun bike the rs50 is a great way to start bikeing, and is really good relaible bike for comuting, however if you want a very fast bike do not buy, once tuned becomes very very unreliable! I have pirelli mt75 tires, and the bike easily goes into corners at 50mph + in the dry and 40mph in the wet!

Summary: very good bike for 16 year old, do not tune!
