1999 Aprilia RS50

Summary:

Stay well clear

Faults:

The key snapped in the ignition and I had to replace it.

The bike used to splutter when driving, which caused a lot of smoke to come from the exhaust.

The front brake just went (don't know why).

Front headlight went.

It sounded like a hedge trimmer.

General Comments:

For a 50cc it's not bad when it gets going.

It did about 60mph flat out.

The gears were OK.

Although it has too many bad points.

Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Don't Know

An amazing review to be honest...

All the things that were listed have happened to me as well, which says a lot for the bike.

Some real advice though, save your money and get something else.

The Suzuki GN125 is what I have now and it's amazing..

The RS 50 is A BAD BAD BIKE.
