Aprilia RS125 2010 Spain's no.1

@Calum hi, the reason was, the shop i bought everything (mmgracingstore) had this italkit head prepared for 140cc and vhm insert. but vhm was not reworked for italkit 140cc i guess. since i dont have knowledge to work on that and i think the difference shouldnt be too much. i bought that instead. and it was good price (~62€), maybe later i change to vhm reworked by pjme.
p.s. how can i post photos like that @Calum ?

Quick update, i already spoke with the mechanic and gave him the material. he told me , that price is for tune cylinder too. he showed me the stock italkit and one already tuned by him, and i saw the big differences on the port of the cylinder.
other thing, my bike is showing EFI Red Light, and around 6k rpm the bike start to die, if i dont use throtle.
maybe still restricted? my CDI is piaggio ac29

@pedrobatista10 Misleading, since the Aprilia's are not EFI.
The stock carb on the very later RS models used a TPS sensor.
I don't think this has any real bearing on anything. Not sure what it's used for since carbs are self metering.
Be wary of porting the cylinder, if it's what you want, great, but it can reduce reliability and make the bike unusable for low speed riding.
The Italkit porting is very good for road use stock. Further modifications might just be to remove casting flaws, but my barrel was very good.
-
@Calum maybe with the new carb the red light disapear?
And about the bike dying on 6k rpm, sound restricted for you?
@pedrobatista10 That's a well known restriction.

I wouldn't port that cylinder unless it was for racing, because it's already a pretty balanced port map great for street.
Porting the cylinder is just going to make it less usable on the streets, your mechanics port job will probably just be widening the ports or just raising the exhaust a little bit as most mechanics don't really study or even care about the angles and then a cylinder just ends up loosing bottom end with some gains on top end but not worth the lost low end power for street. -

If this were me, I'd ride the bike with the cylinder bone stock, and then decide if further refinements are needed. Don't just port unless you need to.

The biggest difference in power i noticed on the rs was getting the squish bang on 1mm also if you dont have a lot of hills lightening the flywheel seemed to help a little for me ...
The hills are alive with the sound of ... braaaap baaaaap 😁

@stinkwheeler Yeah, but he's already got the Italkit Head for that Italkit cylinder. So I think he's got that covered. Whack in a Zeel and that'll remove the restriction at 6K rpm.
Throw it all together and you'll have a very capable 125.
-
next month i will buy zeeltronic or ignitech. i would like to know your opinions about both of them.
ignitech is cheaper. but zeel have more reputation in rs 125 bikes.
what you guys think? worth to pay the difference?
-
The zeeltronic is a more tried and tested system for the rs with good results and lots of options for shift light quickshift and the handheld programmer is verry easy to use ... so i would go with the zeeltronic... im not sure about ignigtech ...
-
hi, new month. time for new stuff for my aprilia.
today i spoke with Borut from zeeltronic, and i already have price. i just have a question, whats the best option handheld programmer or PC USB programmer?
other thing, opinions on TYGA racing step kit CNC. im interested but want to know some reviews.

@pedrobatista10 Tyga make excellent quality parts and have a very good reputation. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@pedrobatista10 Handheld all day long mate.
I've got the TYGA CNC Rearsets. They're gorgeous. They also do carbon fibre heel plates to go with them. Really finishes them off!
-
@Calum thank you for your feedback. i will order carbon part too, look nice.
-
@Calum Amazing!! i will put full tyga carbon parts like your bike with time
-
just little update with 2 photos of my aprilia and dtx
while i wait for more parts
