Who would have thought that there would come a day when Aprilias would be available to the masses of India? Well, thanks to Piaggio, the Aprilia SR 125 scooter is here.
The SR 150 was the first premium branded sports scooter in the country, and it continues to sell in pretty good numbers. Now, to increase the scooter’s accessibility and availability, Piaggio has brought in the Aprilia SR 125 scooter. I got to ride the SR 125, and I must say that this smaller-capacity avatar of the scooter is just as good as the SR 150 and lives up to the Aprilia’s brand image of being a fast, agile and beautiful bike.
When you quickly look at the SR 125, you may not be able to notice much difference from its bigger version. However, with proper inspection, you realise the subtle changes – such as the new graphics, colour schemes and the absence of a dual-tone seat. What remains unchanged are the 14-inch alloy wheels, the analogue instrument cluster, the twin-pod headlight and the 220mm disc brake in the front. So, a few subtle changes aside, the rest of the bike design is exactly the same.
