Looks like a toy in those photos, but I'm assuming it must be real.

Hi

Suspect Aprilia want an awful lot more than that for a new one, and round a track it with a half decent rider it would probably make most of the fast group on a track day look silly.

Looks like it is fitted with carbon fibre wheels.

All the best

Keith

It does look about 3 inches long though!

Maybe they had something to hold it up but photoshopped it out.

Considering a new standard Honda RS125 will cost about 7k new its not a lot really.


I'd imagine it's not the most reliable of things though. Laughing 50bhp out of a 125 single and all that
