presentation of the RS 125 2006
I know a lot of kids (and why should they be the only ones?) who are going to be happy with the new version of Aprilia's RS. With its physique taken straight from the RSV-R 1000, it's easy to imagine yourself as a young Superbike contender. While the fairing flatters the eye, it also makes a major contribution to aerodynamics.
The ultimate evolution of braking technology reserved for the highest levels of competition just a few years ago, radial braking is now standard equipment on the RS 125. Master cylinder piston and 4-piston caliper are now of this type. A large 320 mm track and a new 40 mm diameter inverted fork take care of the braking.
Some notable modifications to the 2006 model:
- New RSV-R rims, 2.2 kg lighter
- Aviation-style braided brake hose
- Multifunctional digital display incorporating an on-board computer that can be operated directly from the handlebars.
- New muffler
- Weight down 5 kg
- New forged aluminum fork crown

Bikers' reviews Leave a review - 86 reviews
For the moment full power but with stock carb and it's already going pretty well 170s without forcing
I'm going to switch to a 30 carb plus a complete arrow line, a forged piston, a reinforced connecting rod and carbon valves, and I'm planning a longer gear ratio in order to hit 200kmh, at least I hope so. Otherwise, it's magnificent, with top-quality finish and efficient braking. Lightweight and easy to angle, it's a real pleasure from 8,000rpm Rating : 5/5 Respond to Gregm3
The engine has no reliability problems if the recommended maintenance is carried out on time. Mine has over 20,000km and has never had a single tightening. This bike is totally addictive! Rating : 5/5 Respond to Bertrand
A little jump on the track feels good. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Oh du brun!

opinion of an owner of an rs125 2001 kité 150 Rating : 5/5 Respond to ghostrider
i can't wait to get the money to buy it.... Rating : 5/5 Respond to riket
The 125 rs is finally up to date, with its sharp lines and top-of-the-range equipment (for 5,000 euros, you might say)
now we'll have to put it through its paces to see if there are any notable improvements in reliability and performance (in full gear, of course) Rating : 5/5 Respond to pompom
For me, this machine is the most accomplished on the 125 market, and can even claim to put many "big cubes" to shame (in full power version)
It almost makes me regret having bought an Aprilia RS 125 TUONO (which is still a very, very good machine) a year earlier Rating : 5/5 Respond to Blackbird
i can't wait to be 16! Rating : 5/5 Respond to dodo82
But we'll have to see how it performs in the full version because I think the weight of the beast has increased!!!!!!!!!!
hoping that cagiva will release a more reliable news model Rating : 5/5 Respond to KING
ok she's beautiful but putting 5000€ into a 125 is a shitty investment
Rating : 5/5 Respond to yopaclak
The look is monstrous and I hope it will calm Derbi down
In any case, I'm waiting until I'm 16 to have the privilege of sitting on it!
And congratulations again on the performance! Rating : 5/5 Respond to lapin-garo
avis dune pssesseuse de derbi racing tout kité!!!! Rating : 5/5 Respond to titi52
waouww tro belle mdr une vraie copie de la derbi gpr racing!!!!
It's the GPR that copied the RSV and now the RS125 takes the design of its big sister and they dare to say that it looks like the GPR but it's nothing, just compare an RS125 to the RSV1000 and you recognize 100% the features whether it's the fairing, rims etc. ..
It's the most magnificent of the RS125s, even if I think its aerodynamics will be less efficient... but otherwise the same engine performance, just the radial brake.

alalala... the dream... Rating : 5/5 Respond to Mr; Mojo R
note: a 2-stroke engine is made up of transfers that need to be polished, otherwise their performance will be limited Rating : 5/5 Respond to charles
