Design and Features

Aprilia has designed the RX125 and SX125 with simplicity in mind, prioritizing user-friendliness and durability. The SX125 is equipped with a larger 300mm front brake disc, whereas the RX125 comes with a 260mm front disc. Both models utilize a 220mm rear disc with a floating caliper, ensuring sufficient braking power for these lightweight motorcycles, which weigh 134kg. With a 7-liter fuel tank, the RX125 is ideally suited for city commuting and short trips.

Color Options and Availability

The RX125 is offered in two color variants—white and black—while the SX125 provides a wider array of choices with five colors: silver, white, red, yellow, and an alternate shade of silver. Although these models are unlikely to be introduced in India, their blend of design, performance, and affordability makes them well-suited as urban adventure motorcycles for the international market.
