  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2024
  • In this series i'll be attempting to transplant the best bits of Aprilia's 2002 model RS 125 into the frame of a 2008 two stroke RS125. In doing so i'll be upgrading most of its chassis and components to give a true Aprilia RS 125 race look from the 90's and early 2000's. This Aprilia RS 125 will be fully rebuilt and restored from the ground up so make sure you subscribe and check out my other project videos.

    I'm 15 years old and i will be buying my first bike some time next year,and it will likely be the Aprillia RS 125.I will most likely be doing a build on it so these videos are highly informative and helpful to someone that hasn't owned a bike before,keep it up!

    Did you buy the Blue one from Peterborough by any chance?
    Im loving my RS, fitted a 140cc kit and 34mm carb and just this morning a new clutch as the old one was beggining to slip a touch. I never saw myself as a bike mechanic :)
    As far as i know, the latter model CDI's are different, from the clocks the Blue one is a Euro 3 bike. This means its the most restricted RS they did, 2 cats in the Expansion Chamber and to derestrict it if it isnt it needs drilling in the small recess at the top left if i remember right.
    I use a 50p coin for the clutch caps :)
