Aprilia RS 125 ABS 2018

For supersport fans in the A1 class, the Aprilia RS 125 is definitely a hot candidate. Thanks to its high-quality chassis and well thought-out suspension set-up, it appears stable in every situation and rewards with higher cornering speed than the competition. Its looks are reminiscent of its big sister RSV4, because if you overlook the rear tyre, there is a serious risk of confusion! Compared to its V4 sister, however, the RS125 scores with a very comfortable riding position that keeps wrist pain to a minimum in everyday use.

High-revving engine

stable handling

More uncomfortable than equally fast Tuono 125

Honda's CB650R proves brilliantly that four-cylinder naked bikes with little displacement are also a real source of joy on the country road. The engine tuning gives enough pressure from the hairpin bend and rewards with a wonderful four-cylinder shriek after a short wait. The suspension components clearly attempt a balancing act between everyday life and sportiness, which is why unrest can quickly be found in the vehicle when approaching the cornering at a brisk pace. Somehow, however, this imperfection gives the Honda a lot of character and gives the rider the feeling of having to actively integrate himself into the action. For country road racers with a daily commute, a real recommendation!

Rev-happy engine

reasonable power

sporty seating position

wide handlebars

very rideable motorbike

comfortable for everyday use

pretty display.

Weakness in the chassis can be seen as a disadvantage

not as much power from the hairpin as two-cylinder competition
