- This is my tutorial on how to ride a Geared 50cc for the first time. I was looking for this type of video when I turned 16 however, I saw none for 50cc's. This is for beginners so it includes people starting to ride 125's, the basics are the same.

My bike is the Aprilia RS50 with 6 gears, it's a great bike to ride and I highly recommend it. If you do have any questions feel free to ask, I know doing your CBT is quite scary to begin with so by watching this I hope it helps you understand the basics.

![[ENGLISH] Aprilia RS50 50cc Sportbike Review, Test Ride and Owners Opinion](/img/n.gif)
im just watching these kinds of video's because im really exited because im going to buy a new aprillia rs4 :D:D
Did you get it? If so how is it?
I actually ended up getting a great deal on a 2009 gpr 50with 0 km that has been a show model. It has been great and i have learned alot since then about riding and bikes in general.
Awesome, that is great to hear!
same
Leon, 0 km would be faked.... It always has like 10 already from testing them....
Great tutorial! Especially seeing as it’s 4yrs old now
thanks so much your clutch and gear tutorial is the only 1 that explained fully in my opinion
I'm glad you found it useful :)
Daily Madness yes now I have my full memory back
Daily Madness each bikes has different patterns, my bike have 3 ups and 1 down :/
Really helpful . Explains gear change so much better than other videos I’ve watched . Just looking to get my first 50cc to learn on
Same
This is definitely the best video I have found to help to learn as it covers everything 😁
Found your channel when doing research on the Aprilia RS50, gonna be buying one soon. I have experience with geared bikes, but I just wanted to compliment you on this video, It's really good for beginners, very well done man.
+Raw-Torch Thank you :) Good luck with your RS !
Ross RS Just picked up my RS50 today, absolutely loving it! Was super surprised by how comfortable and fun it is to ride it, was kinda nervous since its my first sport model bike I've ever ridden, but it's just great!
+Raw-Torch The older shape feels more comfortable IMO, I'd always go for a geared 50cc!
Ross RS Mine is from 2005, so the older shape. The fairings are a bit worn, but mechanically its in a really good shape, and yeah, I think gearing is one of the most fun parts about having a motorcycle/moped. I got it for 400 euros, so I'd consider that a really good deal.
DACE why would you buy RS50? Might as well spent that money on a good 125cc or 250cc.
i've watched many videos on how to change gears but this video was the most helpful. Great video.
kiko arsov Thanks, glad it helped 👌
Buying a Yamaha TZR50 2006 model today. Your vid is of great help. Thank you!
Best starter bike. Ever.
Good video really happy I found this got my cbt in a few weeks
Brilliant video mate. Best one I've seen
The benefits of riding geared 50cc are massive.
You avoid the huge learning curve when you take your A2 license 2 years later since everything is now muscle memory. All you have to worry about then is getting used to the throttle and power.
Thx for the instructions! Really easy to follow... gonna recommend this one
I'm getting a 2007 Aprilia RS50 for my 16th birthday next month but it's geared so this helped a lot, thank you so much!
+Andre Glad I could help :) Good choice of bike ;)
+Ross RS thank you for your help and I can't wait to get riding :)
Wish i had this when i bought my 50cc supermoto. Super vid.
I love the look and style of the rs50, and it is my 16th birthday coming up soon and I've told my parents that I would like the rs50, I've been looking on other videos to see what bike I should get and it has had the aprilia rs50 at the top every time, I currently own a 140cc pit bike but it has too much power for me to learn on so I havnt been on it recently, but if I do get the rs50 later on I can hopefully learn on it and put that knowledge when I go out on my 140cc
Did you get the RS bro?I wanted the rs as well but it’s not available in my country,ended up getting the Phoenix 50cc for my 16th birthday
@@justsomeguywithoutamustach9072 nah it didn't unfortunately, parents got me a lexmoto hunter 50 which isn't bad at all though
Did u get it? I’ve just bought one but haven’t had a shot of it yet
@@laytonliddell2198 nah I didnt get it, I've currently got a hunter 50 which is quite good
I passed my cbt yesterday and learnt to do gears as soon as I got home it was easy so if your worrying about learning you shouldn’t be !
Harry Elms what bike you riding?
really cool vid bro
Top Video for beginners! :)
+marmoto liferider there wasn't a vid like this when I started riding so I made my own :)
I would have loved to watch your video wen i learned riding. I did it the exact same way :D
Ross RS Thanks this really helped me :) subbed
cheers :D
I currently ride an Aprilia RS125 and Mx125
Many thanks! This helped me a lot.
Thanks! looking at buying a mint RS50. helpful to see the gear changes
very good video for beginner's sadly the cbt at 16 doesn't cover gears, whish I had something like this video to help me when I first started...
keep up the awesome work
+Two Wheel Review Thank you :) I was in the same situation and I was pretty nervous about doing my CBT as I had to do it on my geared bike
Ross RS if I do my CBT on one of there provided mopeds can I still get an RS4 50 and learn the gears as I go sort of thing lol
hi i dont know if you still read these comments but just so you know this is very helpful and extremely informative so thanks for uploading :P
No problem, glad it helped.
Great video :D
man that was helpfull. thank you for uploading this vid ;)

How is the bike
@@rileygmz8056 it's a great bike. It drives so smooth with no hesitation
i am not shore about changing gears on a bike i am about to get a bike and good video it kind of helped me a bit.
+Ross RS thanks you should make more videos like this
Very helpful video 👌
Glad you found it useful

Very well done
Thank you
Good video
I have a RS50 to, its nice for people to learn geared, cornering, before you want to go ride a motorcycle
I so happy that in guernsey you can ride 50cc st 14
you do a good job talking about a bike
Matt K Cheers
Planing to get me one during/after the summer. Total cost for it per month will be around 90 to 100 euros per month for insurance and leasing it (brand new). Just need my summer job to work out for me!
Great video! Have my cbt tomorrow morning on their scooters, didnt want to go on my rs4 50 first time and drop it or something. But im riding my bike around the estate for a bit before going on road as it definitely is a large bike haha
+Jonathan Smith Awesome, good luck with it!
+Ross RS cbt went by incredibly well on their scooters. Got home and hopped on mine forgetting its 2x heavier or maybe even 3x and that i needed to learn gears. Practicing around my estate a car jumps out and i end up panic braking at 15mph and the bike falls on me :( only minor damage to the fairing and exhaust which isnt as damaged.) indicator also came off but i fixed that
+Jonathan Smith good to hear, well done on completing it! That sucks, luckily you weren't on a main road as that could of been a lot worse. As long as you're alright and know how to improve next time it's all that counts :D
Ross RS
Just had another blast around my estate and got a little more confident on the throttle getting it to 22mph :) But I'm hoping I feel good about going on the road tomorrow!
+Jonathan Smith try and head out when there is less traffic, it'll make it a bit easier
Thanks
Ive been following your channel for a long while. I too had an rs50 then 4t 125 then rs125 and am now looking fir an sv650.
My question is, Do you ever miss the old 50? Im fortunate to have kept all my old bikes and sometimes give the 50 a wee blast
Yeah I do miss the little 50, obviously don't miss the lack of power but because it was my first bike it was special! SV is a great first big bike, I would highly recommend one.
thanks very much
"Pick one you like and you'll enjoy wearing it"
While true to some degree it's a very silly thing to tell newbies.... We put the gear for the slide not the ride and it doesn't matter at the end if you like it or not, it matters if it will protect your coconut or not.
ATGATT
how to know at what speed to gear down? and ho to gear up and down in hills going up and going downhill?? thanks for a good video! hope to hear back from you!
I’m searching for a bike with the AM6 engine, but the only one in a 200km radius is a Aprilia RS 50 from 2001. But he registered it like a motorcycle so he could ride faster, so it’s gonna be hard to make the papers and number plate to moped again. But I think I’m gonna do it
Like your offer of help
Thanck you
When i get 15 i want to buy moped, it says that it needs to be 50cc and maximum speed needs to be 45 km/h. What's your speed?
Hey bro youre video is very helpful,but i have a problem about shifting gears.The point is i know to shift to a 1st gear but when it comes to shifting to 2nd gear i accidentally shift into a neutral,any help?Do i have to push it 2 times up from 1 then Neutral and 2nd gear.Any tips??
The clutch takes the drive from the gear box just thought I'd say
Buying either an auto 50cc speedfighter or a manual 100cc speedfighter on sat can't fucking wait lad
Enjoy it!
You might want to practise revmatching for when you move on to a 125cc because you are going to need to do it.
What year is the RS50? Im looking to buy one and saw multiple versions...
Not to be critical or rude but when you set off you should have your right foot up on the rear brake to be stable when riding off rather than on the gear side 😁
Im thinking of buying an aprilia rs 50 and I wanted to ask you if it is convinient while riding because from what I have read this is the only disadvantage (also if you could tell me some things you dont like in rs 50 , it would have been really nice)
How do you know when you are in neutral... if you want to go from second to first do you have to press down twice to go to neutral then first??
SightlessGaming you can tell youre in neutral if the bike is able to roll forwards and back with the clutch out, also going from 2nd down to first is only one click, from first to neutral is half a kick up, you will feel the difference between half a click and a full one when you start to ride
AYY same bike as me!
Im from westsussex and will be learning in a couple months what other tips do you have?
Hey good vid bro just a quick question is the left handle (the clutch) also used for braking or is it just the right used for breaking on manuals thanks :)
clutch is only for clutching
Nice video. Did you take your cbt on your own bike? I'm doing mine in a couple of weeks on my k-pipe and I'm really looking forward to it.
Yes I was able to use my own bike. It really helped as they taught me how to use the gears instead of me having to learn on my own.
Goodluck, you'll enjoy it!
Ross RS I passed my cbt two weeks ago now. Riding is so much fun!
Well done! Glad you're enjoying life on 2 wheels
Hey mate what's your opinion getting the Aprilia rs50 for a first one
I have drives a semi-auto (off gas gear in)
So what you say?
I think the RS50 will be perfect to learn gears on
RS50ほしー！！！！！
What is the name for the Driver Licens for 50 ccm ? In german it calls "Mofa"
People normally just get a provisional license then do their CBT but the actually licence is AM (hardly any people do it)
I need help to lern how to downshift when i do it my bike breaks and makes an ugly nois
GG_Gamers_ Pc if you have a 2 stroke you have to pull in the clutch and Rev the bike slightly otherwise the pistons don’t get enough oil (Don’t Engine Brake) should sound better after that
On one of these 2 strokers engine breaking is a no-no right? And whe you brake you have to keep the cluch engaged right?
Yes that's correct
@@RossRS good to know... in case i want to get an rs50
Damn the video Won't load but must be a good video for beginners
try watching it in lower resolution
Currently I'm looking at a 2002 rs50, but I'm having a bit of trouble with gears.
I know how to upshift correctly but the downshifts are a little problem.
I was told that i need to give it a little kick of gas while downshifting, when I'm on the clutch. Is that true?
Great video btw!
Lukvaz Munk Yeah that's true, when you rev it a little it'll help the bike go back into gear. Just a little blip and then downshift. Hope it helps
What do i need to do to ride an aspirilia rs50 on the road legally at 16 ? Eg- CBT, mot, insurance...etc
depends on where you live but you probable need at least insurance and a license
hey ross i have a question
i am considering to buy an rs50 but i'm pretty tall you think it will fit me ?
Yeah I think you'll be fine. If you're that conserned you could get a supermoto 50cc such as a Derbi Senda as they would be more comfortable for a taller person
How much aprilia rs50 does it go stock bcs for my country 45 is max to get registrated
These are restricted by law, you can derestrict it and with the stock exhaust it will do 100, that is a lot for being the stock exhaust
Is this the same for most bikes like jsm 50? The bike I'm looking at for a first one.
Yes it will be
I’ve got an RS50 but it’s been derestricted and everything by my dad and it’s the first geared bike I’ve rode in years and I’m just not confident with it at all, I spend more time focussing on changing gears than on traffic because if not then I’m just gonna blow it up
It’s a 2t you won’t blow it up, they love revving high mate, I’ve got a fully built RS 73cc and it loves to rev its balls off, just give it time to warm up
@@Carswithhkyle since that comment I’ve gotten confident enough to change gears up and down without even realising but unfortunately the rs50 is just way too unreliable and I’m already having to get the engine rebuilt so it’s gonna have to go unfortunately 😔
@@masoncottrell8640 make sure you’ve got 2t in the bike mate, as a lot of people forget to check it
@@Carswithhkyle took it to a mechanic mate needs top end rebuild and he says I’d be coming back every 2 weeks for a new piston, I think the rs is built for 1 thing and that’s to look good 😂 gonna break my heart to have to swap it for a runner but I can’t be having it costing me so much every month and breaking down on way to work and college
@@masoncottrell8640 something isn’t right with it then, my step dad had the same top end on his rs125 since 2017, maybe someone might have messed with your air / fuel mix making it run lean or rich
Bro so if im in the 3rd gear and want to go to the fist one, i just press down right?
Yes you press down 2 times
@Ross RS Ive bought one, first bike with gears, ur vids alot of help trying to learn to ride, but if I have to stop suddenly at 30 mph, I'd have to put it in first gear right? Also, I sometimes still mix up gears with neutral I guess not sure.
Kiemster No you hold the clutch in the disengage it whilst braking
Ross RS ???
Kiemster Did you take geared lessons or not?
For a learner do u go around by your self or are u with someone else ? What do u recommend. ?
On your CBT it is broken into 3 main parts; theory, bike control and road ride. When you are learning to control the bike you ride around a carpark and practice handling the bike. The instructors watch and give you advice and they are stood to the side. The road ride is when you're riding on the roads with the instructors following on their bikes behind you.
Can i add VPR on this bike?
1) With your CBT are you allowed to drive a geared 50cc bike at 16
2) What 50cc sports geared bike would you recommend
+iTz-_PR3DITORzZ yes, any 50cc you are aloud to ride
I would recommend the Aprilia RS 50 (in the video) or the Derbi Senda 50
I wouldn't call a 50cc machine a sports bike in any case, even chainsaws can have bigger engines
i passed my 50cc cbt on a moped will i be aloud to ride the 50cc sport bike?
Neonz Yes however legally it shouldn't do more than 30mph
Is there any 50cc or 125 cc motorbike body but its just twist & go like moped. I hate gears and clutch on bikes
The Gilera DNA 50cc and 125cc both look like a normal motorbike but are twist and go
@@RossRS really. I will do an auto trader search. The DNA does not look flashy like the racing bikes. Is there any motorbikes shapes that look like a sports racing bike i.e Yamaha YZF shape thats twist & go.
5:35 Is that part of the shifting process?🤔🤔
but what about going into neutral?
I mate, I'm looking at doing my cbt within the next few weeks and looking at a few different bikes. I've found an rs50 for £850 with over 15,000 miles on the clock. Would you say this is a good deal or not? Not sure how fair the engines will last for on a two stroke and fear it could be nearing its end? Thanks for the help mate, and also for an excellent video!
+Callum Bradley That's not too bad, my old Rs 50 had about 24,000 miles however it did have an engine rebuild during its life. Ask the seller a few questions about the engine and if you view it look out for certain signs of wear
+Ross RS think I might have to do that! Thanks a lot for the advice and getting back so quick mate. I've seriously been debating holding out untill I can get a 125 and getting something cheap as a run around until that point, as I've only a few months left.
If you've only got a few months left it might be worth waiting
Hey I have bought my RS 50 2008 and I'm starting the hole process of getting my license could you help me out a little please?
They are great first bikes!
What can I help you with? :D
+Ross RS I just need advice on everything really like my CBT because I'm a bit nervous for it and I'm nervous with gear changes too.
Message me on Facebook (Ross RS) and I'll try and help
I'm 16 and just got my first job and would like to get a 50cc motorcycle would you be able to help me understand bikes a bit more
watch the video, not much more
Feel free to message me through Facebook if you have any questions
I have driving test tomorrow and if i pass i get my driving license tomorrow (50cc moped)
Goodluck!
how did it go?
@@persononinternet7868 Thanks for asking. I got it ;)
I know this is a noob question. But i dont understood everything (im not good at english). if i start, i need 1 down (1-n-2-...). if i want to up from 1 to 2, i need 2 up or only 1 up? I hope u will understood my question =/
You only need to do 1 motion up however you have to move it up further
thx. now, how can i up/down to N?
it's about half a tap to get into N from either 1st or 2nd
Opinions on the RS50 2019 or 2018 which should I get and should I buy it new
Personally I would avoid buying new as the depreciation is much higher compared with an older bike.
Ross RS where is best to get it second hand
I’m 15 and 10 months just wondering is this a good beginners bike ? I can ride mopeds easily
Yes it is a good beginner bike. You will need to learn how to use the gears however, once you have practiced you will be fine.
if i ride in 1st gear do i realease throttle when i change to second?
Yes, everytime you pull in the clutch you should release the throttle otherwise it will just rev
Where could i buy one of these i can't find any. only ones above 50cc?
Where aboufs are you from, the UK?
+Ross RS yeah I'm in Scotland
+IT'S VIRAL look on gumtree and ebay
thanks for this. answered some questions I had. seems more complex than it is I guess. how much of a leap would you say it is for me to go from 50cc moped to a geared bike? should I just get another day of training or just train myself?
I went from having no experience to jumping onto my Aprilia RS 50 and riding it with no problems. It takes time and practice however it's quite easy to learn.
I would just train yourself as many places don't have geared 50cc's therefore you would only be able to ride a moped whilst doing your CBT
+Ross RS from your lack of experience, how did riding a bike (rs 50) feel for the first time? Did it feel fast or was the power manageable?
It felt very quick as I was only used to a pushbike.
I always took it easy though and didn't ride full throttle all of the time so I didn't get bored of it too quickly. However, since I've got my Rs125 the power difference is huge!
+Ross RS thanks for your quick reply! Im used to a pushbike too so i guess ill be the same as you.
As I did my CBT on my RS50 I was able to get used to it before going on the road by myself. If it's your first time riding just take it steady
Do u drive the Aprilia RS4 50 50cc the same way?and how do u drive a normal moped?
Luka Yonny Yes it will be the same for any geared bike (such as the RS4). A normal moped is very easy to ride as it is automatic therefore, there is no clutch and gears to worry about.
Ross RS Thank you brother! So you just give the normal moped gas right?And how tall you need to be to be able to drive a RS4 50 and how about normal moped?Thanks in advance!
Hello mate just watched this and was wondering if you had the bike still or if you were looking to sell it ??
I sold it ages ago however I saw it on Gumtree last month. I believe it's not for sale atm. Just look around on ebay and Gumtree and you'll come across a good deal.
thank you will do pal!
In 7 months i can finally get my license
Did you get it?
Yh did you get it ?

@@Brandan1410 coronavirus is coming to you very close 🤣
you've probably long forgotten this video but if you'd get the chance i'd love to talk, i'm turning 16 in a bit more than 2 months and i've already bought my bike (it's the same as yours in the video), i've had crossers before from when i was younger but the thing is i've never had a style like this, i'm finding a little trouble with power to steering ratio and was wondering if you'd speak your mind from experience (i really appreciate this btw, i love my bike sfm)
By power to steering do you mean the weight of the steering?
Sports style bikes have heavier steering however, once you are moving it becomes looser. It's just something you'll have to get used to when riding this type of bike.
Thanks man, i really appreciate the help (p.s i just meant for going through corners as I’m not very good with my Aprilia yet, i am going to use it mostly for photography)
@@DomeFart Cool, it's a great way to get around. All my photography bits fit inside a rucksack aswell.
You'll gain confidence cornering the more you ride. Try just leaning and using less force on the bars when turning in
I turn 16 in may which is shit cause all my mates are getting bikes before me, I'm thinking of getting a geared bike similar to yours. How much am I looking at as I only have a certain amount to spend and I think that a geared bike would be best but am also thinking it is a lot more expensive 👊 thanks
Harry Elms Just keep an eye out for one on eBay and Gumtree ect.... You could pick up a decent one for under 1k
I have to wait for August and all my mates are already 16 and all have peds so I understand you ahah
