Aprilia SX 50
The Aprilia RXV and SXV were the first bikes in the world to break the ‘single cylinder’ taboo and install a high performance twin in enduro and supermotard motorcycles. At the time it was seen as an almost impossible challenge to develop an off-road twin that would still be accessible to the riding public. But Aprilia’s R&D had the conviction, determination and experience for the job, and victories in top level competitions soon came flooding in, followed by the world supermotard championship title. But at Aprilia, we have never been satisfied to rest on our laurels. We see racing as the most effective method of testing new ideas and solutions that we can then introduce across the range, from our flagship model to our 50 cc machines.
The RX 50 enduro and SX 50 supermotard are high performance 50 cc machines. They are both powered by an engine of the latest generation and feature the sort of chassis that many big can only envy. Don’t be fooled by the size of the 50 cc
engine. The RX and SX are real motorcycles, and just at home on
tough racing circuits as they are on the daily trip from home to
school or college. The new perimeter frame forms a direct connection between the steering head and the swingarm pivot, in line with the latest off-road developments. The frame is made from high strength steel to absorb all the stress that hard off-road riding can transmit. This synthesis of strength and lightness is the perfect match for the characteristics of the RX/SX 50. The suspensions are another one of the strong points of these exceptional motorcycles. At the front there is a mighty fork with 40 mm stanchions giving a wheel travel of 195 mm, more than enough to absorb even the hardest knocks. At the back, the high strength steel swingarm is damped by an advanced hydraulic monoshock giving a generous 180 mm of rear wheel travel to ensure that the RX/SX 50 can tackle even the toughest terrains.
