Aprilia RS125 2010 Spain's no.1
-
Hi
quick update on rs125 and BIG news for my next project
bought this bobbins from aliexpress, i think calum have the same ones. they look nice
Yesterday, i travelled almost 650km to buy my next project 250cc.
I waited for this moment a long time, every day looking on classified ads. finally completed one of my dreams, buying the Aprilia RS250.12.000km Year 1999 (MK2) and its running. need painting, new rear and front disc (x2), new tyres and some other small parts to make it good looking again. still have the original exhaust ( my rs125 makes 3 times more noise :face_with_tears_of_joy: :face_with_tears_of_joy: ) but for 2.7k € i will never find a deal like this anymore, i guess.
sorry for no photos, but with all the excitement i forgot, and i already left the bike on the mechanic for a quick check and to remove the fairings.

here you have some photos, on the photos you cant see the bad paint job the previous owner did. trust me, the photos hide the fails on the paint. the brembo calipers are chinese paint lol
but the engine its fine, so i have more spac€ for other stuff needed.

I utterly adore carbon fibre. It is so pretty and so exotic.
Looks amazing. I hate to say it, cause I love tyga, but those heel guards are nicer.

Real Carbon fibre oozes class, quality and expensiveness - hence why I love it too!!! :money-mouth_face: :smiling_face_with_heart-eyes: :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye: :money-mouth_face: :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

It's more subtle. My friend had a GSXR6 with GSXR engraved heel plates and the like. Looked smart I thought.
I think mine has RS engraved
