May be in for a bit of luck here, the only one in this country on ebay said to fit the 50 as well as the 125.
I have read that the AF1 shares the same cap as the RS125 but not sure!

Hi

Cap should be easy. Shared with a load of other Aprilias (and although never checked in detail, looks very very similar to the ones used on a load of Triumphs). Should be able to pick up one from an RS50 or RS125.

Ignition switch should be pretty much the same as the early RS125, but not the later ones (the wiring changed).

Seat lock will be a problem.

One of those Ebay listings is for a broken cap, although you can actually fit a new lock. The other is a tank from a 1989/90 AF1 Sintesi.

All the best

Hi

Would need to check the cap in detail. My Futura has an RS fuel cap.

Seat lock will be a problem. The RS seat lock is totally different.

All the best

Hi

Just tried the caps. Took the one out of my 1991 AF1 Futura and put it in the 1993 RS125. Fitted fine. Looks the same.

All the best

Hi

Honestly do not know. I would expect at least 1996 (newer shape came out in 1997 I think), and possibly even the 1997-2007 ones

All the best
