2004 (Oct) Aprilia RS 125
8000 miles.
Good condition.
No rebuild to date.

How much would you say is the going rate?

Cheers Smile

I'd have to say £1,400-1,500 from similar bikes I've seen advertised.

Konsoli, thanks for that. He said he's looking around £1350 which I didn't think was too far away but then when you factor getting the top end done after that, it can look a lot more expensive. So even with the prospect of needing the top end rebuilt, do you think around £1350 doesn't sounds ok?

Cheers

Bare in mind it's Aprilia RS125, they're not toys and it's rare to find one that's not been abused or revved high. So they're a high-maintenance bike...(from what I've heard, I've heard others say they've not had a problem but if you check the 'workshop' section of the forum, they do spend a fair bit of time off the road to be fair and that's not me spreading propaganda, I have friends who have the bike..

most would recommend a top-end rebuild on this model every 8,000-10,000 miles if you do a bit of research so it's going to need doing, that'll set you back around "about £750 including new barrels and using genuine Aprilia parts" - https://www.maxmoto.co.uk/aprilia_rs125.shtml

I'm sure you can get the parts cheaper, especially if you look on eBay or at a local bike shop though. Maybe you can get it done for about £200-300. Hopefully.
