Notable Features and Pricing
A Debt of Gratitude to Suzuki
The Aprilia RS250 owes much of its success to Suzuki. The engine, derived from the Suzuki RGV250, was a crucial element in making the RS250 an iconic motorcycle. While Aprilia made significant enhancements, such as adding a bespoke airbox, modifying the ECU, and building model-specific expansion chambers, the heart of the bike remains a Suzuki masterpiece.
Engine and Performance
With these modifications, a healthy stock RS250 can deliver around 70 HP. The collaboration between Aprilia and Suzuki allowed Aprilia to dominate the racetrack and cater to the market's desire for a streetable two-stroke bike.
Chassis and Handling
One of the RS250's standout features is its exceptional handling. Aprilia's expertise in chassis design, combined with the tweaked Suzuki engine, resulted in a motorcycle that is widely regarded as one of the best-handling bikes ever made.
Condition and Features
This particular RS250 retains all OEM fairings, and the paintwork is in very good overall condition, aside from a scratch on the right-hand side of the seat cowl. The swingarm has some pitting in the aluminum, which could be polished out, and the rider's seat has a split in the rubber from accessing the mounting bolt. Additionally, it comes with brand new Bridgestone tyres, a new battery, and has been recently serviced and test ridden.
