The Aprilia RS 250 is a true marvel of engineering, boasting a fast motor, exquisite chassis, and breathtaking design that will leave even the most seasoned riders in awe.
At the world launch of the stunning 250 at Misano, it was clear that Aprilia had finally nailed the formula for their eagerly anticipated 250 road bike. By partnering with Suzuki to supply a modified version of the proven RGV engine, Aprilia has created a machine that is both noticeably different and more potent on the road or track.
Below 8000rpm, the RS 250 can be temperamental, idling splutteringly before bursting into life as the revs approach five figures. But once you reach the top end, all that hard work pays off in spades – this bike is a firecracker, ready to unleash its full fury on any road or track it’s given.
The Aprilia RS 250 is an exceptional machine that demands respect and attention from its rider, offering a truly immersive riding experience that will leave you grinning from ear to ear.
