APRILIA RX 125OVERVIEW


It was inevitable that the innovative SXV and RXV would extend their influence to other members of the Aprilia range sooner or later. The world-beating styling, performance and technology of these fantastic machines has engendered a family of eye-catching and modern off-road motorcycles. The SX 125 and RX 125 are the latest off-road machines from Aprilia. Specialist and refined, they are the obvious choice for young riders who want to stand out right from the very start. The SX and RX are both built to deliver total rider satisfaction. Though the technology is basically the same, it has been adapted to match the different specialities. The SX and RX share the same body, frame, engine and suspensions but have very different characters for very different passions.
With its 17” wheels and sports tyres, the SX is the obvious candidate for the prize of the meanest 125 over mixed routes. Nippy and lightweight, the SX delivers real ‘big bike’ performance without exceeding the power restrictions imposed by law. Its refined, sprightly engine never lets you down.
The RX and the SX 125 also share a clear Aprilia family look, obviously inspired by their bigger sisters, machines that have established a whole new trend in off-road design.

STYLING
Aprilia was the first manufacturer to introduce dramatic innovations to the designs of essential enduro and motard motorcycles. In the same way in which the RXV and SXV have become style icons in their own right, the SX and RX are destined to leave their mark on young off-road riders.
As with all off road motorcycles worthy of respect, the SX and RX are built for maximum functionality and efficient riding and control. Their styling leaves no room for pointless frills and gadgets. The unmistakably pure lines of the SX and RX are simply unique among off-roaders.

ENGINE
The single cylinder unit that powers these Aprilia 125 cc motorcycles is a state-of-the-art two stroke engine. It is a classic example of how race-developed technology can deliver extremely low emissions as well as top performance. On the RX 125 and SX 125, Aprilia has succeeded in perfecting its two stroke design to bring it in line with the strict new Euro 3 standard without any loss of performance or riding satisfaction. This sparkling single cylinder engine easily develops the maximum permitted power for its class, with all the lightness and zippy acceleration typical of a high performance two stroke.
This engine has already established a place for itself in the hearts of 125 fans, thanks to its many advanced characteristics, including liquid cooling, and a balancer shaft. The cylinder has a nickel silicon carbide (Nikasil) liner for an ultra-reliable, extended life. Lubrication is provided by a separate mixer system.

BRAKES AND SUSPENSION
Active safety on the Aprilia RX and SX is ensured by advanced suspension and a braking system that sets new standards for stopping power and progressive action. The front brakes feature a 260 mm disc and two-piston floating caliper while the back brake incorporates a 220 mm disc and another floating piston.
The robust, steel, double cradle frame is coupled to an over-sized suspension system. At the front is a mighty, 40 mm upside down telescopic fork offering wheel travel of 260 mm.
At the back, a long steel swingarm delivers maximum traction and a rear wheel travel of 270 mm.

WHEELS
Specialist motorcycles like the RX and SX demand top level components, especially wheels, the strength and lightness of which are so important to handling. The Aprilia RX and SX are equipped with prestigious spoked wheels with new black anodised rims. Just like top sports motards, the SX boasts lightweight 17 inch, wide profile wheels and generous sports tyres, 110/70-17” and 150/60-17” for maximum grip under all conditions.

INSTRUMENTATION
To confirm its determination to build advanced motorcycles that are versatile and practical in everyday use, Aprilia has equipped the RX and SX with sophisticated digital instruments just like those on the bigger SXV and RXV.
Once again Aprilia motorcycles are going to feature in the dreams of young riders.

Fiquei pensando numa coisa...a DRZ 400, pelo que vi nas fotos no site da Suzuki, me pareceu ser uma moto de trilha.
Vi nas fotos do relato da viagem dos caras, que eles equiparam suas motocas com o estilo motard...

Gostaria de saber: sem alterações na moto, qual seria a velocidade final destas e será que vale a pena comprar uma destas pra rodar fora da terra (com os penus motard lógico)?

[marcelofreitas]

pura verdade, no site parece ser somente off road!

As motos para se fazer uma viagem de aventura seria a XT660r, XT660z e a XT1200z. :OK:
