The SX125 and RX125, fairly obviously, share the same engine, steel frame, swingarm, fuelling system, Bosch ABS system, ergonomics, lights, seat, and styling. Where they do differ is on the wheel sizes and tyres
The SX125 and RX 125 is also equipped with Bosch ABS system with anti-rollover mode, pioneering the segment with this feature.
The twins perform best when the engine is working overtime. All of the 15BHP comes into full force at 10,700rpm and that is where you’ll find both the RX125 and SX125 come to life.
First impressions of the Aprilia RX125 and SX125 were a mixed bag. They both look like performance oriented big bikes with a feature list that could put motorcycles from the quarter-liter segment to shame. However, cradled within the frame of the motorcycles were 125cc engines which usually find themselves in commuter motorcycles.
Then you’re left with the question of the reasoning for the price tag. Yes, the electronics, equipment and aesthetics do play a role. But, the Aprilia twins have a greater calling. They are the ideal motorcycles that will help perfect a rider’s craft. It has the equipment and handling to help you learn the nitty-gritty of enduro and supermoto riding. If an inopportune moment should arise where a young rider makes a mistake, the electronic assistance steps in and works as a safety net.
