    not satisfied with the performance 

    I am owning Aprilia SR 125 since last 7 months and the riding experience is moderate. it comes with a decent design not much attractive for today's youth. it has a mileage of 40 kmpl which might seems to be low to many buyers. this scooter is lacking in providing features like mobile connectivity etc. the boot space is also very less. according to me 1.3 lakh is not a reasonable price for this scooter.

    A good innovation with comfort and trustability. 

    I am owning Aprilia SR 125 from last 2 years and I am happy with the riding experience. It has a comfortable seating posture and the mileage is also moderate. The showroom staff was also well educated. I think the pricing could be low after seeing the features and performance of this scooter. I am facing little bit difficult in the maintenance as there are less Aprilia service centre in my area.

    Great handling but high price 

    The best city scooter Aprilia SR 125 comes with 125 cc engine that gives a very nice performance and the handling of this scooter is very good but the 14 inch tyres of this scooter is not good for all tyes of roads. All the Aprilia scooters are pretty fun to drive which I love but the price is high and NTORQ 125 gives much better modern features.

    Very high price 

    Aprilia SR 125 handles very well but it gives vibration and the ride quality is not good on the bad roads. The suspension is good and the brakes performs very well and is a very stylish scooter but the instrument cluster is boring and old looking. The price of this scooter is very very high for what it offers although the stability of this scooter is very good. It gives good road presence and the mileage is around 35 to 40 kmpl but the riding is not exciting of this scooter.

    a flow full of grace 

    I had taken a driving test of Aprilia SR 125 and I was quite thrilled to experience a smooth ride with it. The showroom manager has appointed a staff for me who would brief me about the model and how to use and drive it. He was very polite and friendly, he introduced me to the new features of this model such as controller knobs, the lookout, and handle functions. The LED headlights looked quite aesthetic as well as the exterior of the bike.

    Love to go with this bike 

    I have ns160 and one thing I can say that it just loves to go fast, it is happyest when you ring it is throttle wide open, I also have rtr200 but the joy in riding ns is just something else. The stopping power is very good and the engine is very powerful but is not a feature rich bike. It gives around 52 kmpl of mileage and is also affordable bike and the look of this bike is just fantastic.
