In the late 1980s, Aprilia unveiled a revolutionary motorcycle that would change the face of the 125cc sportbike market forever: the Sintesi Replica. As its name suggests, this bike was designed to be a comprehensive encapsulation of Aprilia’s technical and sporting prowess.
With its all-aluminum frame, 38mm upside-down forks, monoshock rear suspension, and APS (Anti-Dive System) technology, the Sintesi Replica boasted cutting-edge engineering that set it apart from its competitors. The bike’s heart was a 123cc Rotax engine featuring Aprilia’s innovative RAVE 2 valve system.
The riding experience on the Sintesi Replica is characterized by smooth, linear power delivery and exceptional handling, thanks to its balanced weight distribution and sophisticated suspension system. Its distinctive styling, inspired by the legendary Honda RC30 endurance racer, features a unique combination of analog headlights, a monoshock rear end, and a sleek, aerodynamic bodywork.
The Aprilia AF1 125 Sintesi Replica is an engineering marvel that embodies the spirit of Italian motorcycle design and innovation.
