Aprilia RS125 two-stroker coming to America

looks like they have adapted direct injection to the two stroke. plusses include clean burning and no more oil mixing!

Can a 250 be far behind? BTW I've heard of people paying $5000 otd for a Ninja 250 so that's not too bad! Besides,it wouldn't suprise me if this bike weighs 50-100 lbs less than the baby Ninja but still puts out about the same hp! Not to mention Aprilia-typical top shelf components,shock,brakes,wheels,forks,etc.

I have the $1k difference right here: inverted forks, braided lines, and look at that beefy 4-pot caliper. Then look at the ninja.

RS125 FTW.

I think so too,that's why I mentioned wheels...it's incredibly easy to see where the extra money went!

We need those over here! Everyone around here would be saying "what 250?"

Well, Here is what I'm planning. New 08 ninja 250 minus motor. Place new motor on ebay. Promptly score 350 Banshee twin 2-stroke. Replace in new chassis and enjoy! All and I mean ALL part will be just a dealership trip away. And with the new 08's being used here shortly I should be able to score them hand over fist for $3500... Maybe even with aftermarket pipes and such to sell also. I have been 2-stroke dreaming for 5 years and im just fucking tired of looking to the UK to try and smuggle a shit bike for top dollar into the US. Time to go new and local! Suck it.
