Aprilia RS125 2010 Spain's no.1
-
@Calum EFI now that is interesting, it still used a carb alongside the EFI I gather. So was this just a means to restrict RPM's for Euro3 emissions or an upgrade to the fuel system for MORE POWER!!! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
@NINJA Nevermind I found the answer;
In 2008, the bike's electronics were changed froml Nippon-Denso to Piaggio/EFI Technology electronics, most notably the new ECU to meet the more stringent EURO3 Emissions standards. The bike has also been fitted with a vacuum fuel tap on the tank and a new Dell'orto 28 mm VHST carburettor that features the vacuum pipe extension.
SEDUCED BY THE DARK SIDE!!!

@NINJA Yeah, I was just winding you up.
Genuinely though, the CDI can be used in conjunction with a TPS though. The Zeeltronic allows for a TPS to be used to finely tune the ignition.
I remember getting all excited way back when. The same age Aprilia SR50 Scooter was genuinely EFI, so when I saw the RS was as well I thought it would be the same technology.
Always Originate, Never Pirate!

@Calum I was super excited initially thinking mmmmmmmmmmm now that would be an awesome upgrade. I was thinking along the lines of KTM's TPI system and how cool it would be to add it to my MX. Then I read that article and was well deflated. :pouting_face: :pouting_face: :pouting_face:
I do however have an airbox upgrade to share soon, plus I now have the larger 34mm carb and Carbon reeds. So there should be an improvement there??? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :winking_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

@NINJA i already seen that before
@pedrobatista10 How sweet does this sound;

@pedrobatista10 I don't remember, sorry. I didn't get them from PJME.

hi guys
my bike is not finished yet, unfortunately. but i may have a new deal with a RS 125 2010 with 15.000km, that had an accident, the right side fairing repair and front. and some other small things.
some photos:
here left side looks good!
the good things in my favour, i just need to buy right side fairings and frontal and paint all with the replica i want. because the rest of the material i have spares from my spain's.
what you guys think of this? my plan is to fix the bike and sell 1 of them.
thanks!

@pedrobatista10 The new bike looks smart and the damage is easily repairable, hopefully you got it for a good price and can fix her then sell it on for a profit???
-
@NINJA the price for the bike 1.700€
the 3 fairings needed, used and unpainted ~240€ , i plan to make mugello 1999 rossi. (full sticker set cost 200€ from a very good guy in spain)
this bikes in portugal worth around 3k
@pedrobatista10 Sounds like your onto a winner then. :thumbs_up_medium-light_skin_tone:
-
tomorrow is the day! im going to invest in this one.
and maybe buy this Cagiva Mito evo 1
for a good price
-
-
@pedrobatista10 had an RS125 but no Cagiva. Always fancied a SuperCity though
-
they say that cagiva have more power :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_closed_eyes:
but imo RS look much better.
lets see if i go for this deal too

@pedrobatista10 Not sure whether Cagiva has more power to be fair. Tuning parts for them are limited.
Yeah brother has a Raptor which runs the mito engine. It's basically a Aprilia RS125 Tuono of the Mito. Naked Mito basically. Cracking bike.
That one looks to be in good nick too!
-
I'd have said the Raptor was more like a Ducati Monster and less like a Tuono as its basically a tweaked Planet.
Reminds me I must get my 900 back together at some point soon!

@Nottsbiker Yes, but the frame, forks and swingarm are the same as the mito.
Which is why I said it's like the tuono. Which uses the same frame wheels and forks as the rs.
-
True - had 2 Tuono's myself before my 996 and they are great fun and an easy way to lose your license

hi guys, quick update on my new rs
yesterday, i saw that the new bike came with a Polini 160cc Barrel. and the cylinder have some problem. the cause of the crash was because of the bike died when he was riding on high speed, im almost sure. because we checked the cylinder and piston with a camera, and the piston is new (we can see the letters easily) its pretty clean the surface. but we can see a little scratch on the interior of the cylinder.
its bad cause is not turning on, but polini 160cc its good and came with a carb oko 32 or 34 (didnt check yet), so i will have the best barrels for rs 125. italkit 140 and polini 160 to tune. and i can test both on the road
@calum im having trouble with tyga rear set, the right side, when we put the bolts, touch on the frame. you didn't adapt nothing on yours? i will show you photo soon
