Aprilla RS 250

This bike is like no other. This bike first went into production when Aprila wanted to make a replica of Massimiliano "Max" Biaggi's race bike in 1994. He raced for Aprila and won many World Championships for the 250cc category. Aprila is a small Italian motorcycle company therefore they are not really able to produce a street-reliable 250cc engine. They had to get some help. This help came from Suzuki. The engine is a liquid-cooled, two stroke V-twin that has a total of 60hp. That might not seem like much but when a bike weights only about 315 lbs then yes that is more than enough.

Like I sad earlier this bike is not like other bikes, such as, the Hayabusa. The Hayabusa is more comparable to a muscle car. Meaning that it is most effective in straight aways. The Aprila is like more like a little sports car that will accelerate from 0 to 60 in about 3.7 seconds and stick to every single corner you throw at it. Sadly this sporty bike has not been under production since 2004. Hopefully one day it will come back.
