Aprilia Pegaso 650cc Apr '00 (W)

Overall Rating:

Review

So far it's been a lot of fun to own, but lucky I got it cheap (£900) so far I have replaced: Shock (Hagon - great shock!!), cans (Arrow - LOUD!), Swingarm, sprockets, chain, fork seals, fork springs (Hagon again - £55 bargain!) rear indicators, tyres.

Along with the cans, I installed an Iridium plug and K&N filter. This has transformed the engine! No more snatching, pulls cleanly from 2000RPM and right up to redline. New gearing has given it better on-motorway manners - you aren't having to thrash it doing 80+. Next will be a vario touring screen and probably a better set of hand protectors - the factory ones are like sails on a windy day :)

The only issue I am having is that as I don't ride every day, the battery needs to be kept in tip-top shape - you need to keep it charged or use a battery management device.

For a big trailie, it handles great, stops pretty damned good and is relaxing to ride.

I have the factory panniers and top-box but haven't fitted them yet, but next summer they will be getting plenty of use.

After around 45 or so motorcycles - everything from 500cc strokers to litre bikes, Guzzis, Dukes, Beemers, dirt bikes to sidecars, I'm very pleased.

Parts are a bit variable, but I have found Ebay and wreckers to be my best friends - especially Ebay Germany!

I've owned a 2003 RS50 for 7 months and it's got to be one of the best head turning 50's around! Fast as F**K! I touched 70mph out of it next to a CBR600. The downfall of owning one is money! You need money to run it for oil and the amount of petrol it drinks and it is very unreliable.. I've done nothing but spend money on replacing parts, i've tried upgrading when replacing but something else goes wrong.. But when it does run smooth boy does it put a smile on my face..! =)

Just done 2000 mils in a week on my "batbike". Holland, Germany, Austrian Alps, up to Prague and back to Amsterdam. True sportsbike handling,eye poppin' Brembos, Seat to match a Chesterfield, long V twin legs, Hard luggage to match any Beemers. They say a poor mans VFR, had one,get some exclusivity (and a pair of end cans) Batbikes rock!

Aprilia Pegaso 650cc 98 (S)

Review

What can I say about this bike that's not already been said in so many bike mags. It's the all round achiever, getting ten out of ten for style, performance, comfort, servicing, practicality, touring ability, cheap insurance (only group 9) and of course THE FUN FACTOR!

If your looking for something to use (as you would a car) to commute to and from work - This is the bike. If you want something for a holiday (single or two-up) - This is the bike. If you want something to get down and dirty and have some fun with in the twisties - Yup, you guessed it - This is the bike.

Yes its a big bike, and for those used to their mini racers it might be a bit of a culture shock. But although its a big bike it has a low seat height (can go much higher) a firm but not harsh touring suspension, and for a touring bike its nice and light (around 160Kg, before you ad the top box, panniers, hot babe). It's got a very nice seating position, upright yet relaxed; unlike some.

The performance is helped greatly by its weight, letting you open up the throttle and get that lovely boost of acceleration as and when needed; no lag; no struggle; just smooth delivery of power. More than capable as a tourer, and if you want a bit of fun this bike will not disappoint; the words eager and perky spring to mind. It's no KTM Duke, but you didn't think it was (at least i hope not).

The look of the bike is not unfamiliar, probably as they come from the same factory / have some of the same designers as a few other bikes such as the much acclaimed BMW 650. The panels are good quality, the seat is ample without being bulky, th tank is big enough for touring but without the feeling your hauling a fuel tanker of petrol with you as you ride (as you can feel with the Paris / Dakar style tanks).

Maintenance ... the bane of our lives. Well no worries with this little beauty, everything is on hand, easy access, no special tools and i'd be very surprised if you couldn't handle it all yourself (which cuts down on those garage bills). I've heard the IE version (the injection model) can be more tricky to work on; possibly somebody with one could comment?

* My top tip would be not to bother wasting £20 on one of those printed manuals you get on the bike shops. Go online and get the very same thing on CD which you can print and zoom and makes notes on as and when you see fit (normally about 99p + postage.

All in all the Pegaso ticks all the right boxes; fast, comfy, capable, stylish and fun.

JP.

I own an Aprilia RS50. It ran well for several months before the crank case seals blew. So i did a lot of work on it. I had it fixed, new piston, cylinder head, chain, bigger sprockets, a much bigger carb and an arrow exhaust. Ever since i have derestricted it, it truly has been an amazing bike. On a flat it can go up to 65mph at 10000rpm sixth gear though it has trouble holding it as the big sprockets pose a problem for it on any hill though it can hold at 50mph on a steep hill. I had a honda CBR125 behind me to see what speed it could do on a flat and down a hill, 65 on a flat, 75 down a hill. It is very comfortable and i have had no trouble with the seat, it handles like a dream and is very easy to put my knee down on it, fuel consumption isnt very good it can do about 150 miles to a tank, running costs are satisfactory, reliability is good, performance is outstanding for a 50cc, i wanted an rs50 since i was 10 as they looked incredible. and what is with these guys complaining and saying they cant go above 50mph, ive tested its speed and know its exact capabilities so please do not call me a liar.

Aprilia Atlantic 125cc Apr '03 (03)

Overall Rating:

Review

I've had my Atlantic for a few months now and overall it's a very good scooter. It has plenty of poke when I want to accelerate, a top speed of around 70mph (although I don't think I'd try it out on the motorway). The pros are plenty; it can seat 2 adults easily, has masses of underseat storage with an integral light and plug socket and that 'big bike' feel that you don't get with the smaller scoots. On the minus side there are a few things which niggle me; the wing mirrors could be better, they tend to move when I ride over speed bumps and the petrol tank only holds one and a half gallons (although it does do around 70mpg), also - it's very heavy to push around but then again it is a proper 2 person scooter and most of the time you're riding it!

Overall, the Aprila Atlantic 125 is a very good bike to ride. They're not as 'common' as the Piaggio X9 and I think it has very good styling. It's solid and gets me from A to B in luxurious comfort.

I duno why peeps say they are sh*t lol because they're not Some peeps have said they use optimax unleaded... well you shouldn't! you should only use standard unleaded because it does not heat up as much and is not so fin lol, Anyways I'd say to anyone thats thinkin of getting one, just go for it they're a lovely bike..
