In the spring of 1992, Aprilia unveiled the RS 125R Extrema, a radical new street bike that marked a significant departure from its predecessor. This exciting machine boasted a brand-new aluminum chassis and swingarm, delivering improved handling and agility.
With its sleek fairing and flowing tail, the Extrema exuded style and sophistication. But don’t be fooled – beneath its elegant surface lies a potent 34bhp engine, perfectly suited for committed riders who crave high-octane thrills and spills.
The RS 125R Extrema was not designed for cruising through town or sipping coffee at your favorite café. Its purpose is to unleash raw energy and unbridled excitement on the open road, making it an ideal companion for thrill-seeking motorcyclists who live for the rush of adrenaline.
