2006 Aprilia RS125 review from Australia
"Stands out from the crowd, always a head turner"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing major yet.
The tank is plastic; which is a pain because it's hard to find a small tank bag that isn't magnetic.
The foot pegs are angled slightly, which is hard to get used to; constantly shuffling my feet.
I find it's hard to start compared to my previous 4 strokes after 24 hours of inactivity; also needs a good blasting out once a week (freeway at 150km/h does it).
Other than that, I love it;
General comments?
