Aprilia SR 125

The Aprilia SR 125 is a popular performance-focused scooter in Nepal, known for its iconic Italian design and exhilarating ride quality. Distributed by Dugar Brothers & Sons, the Aprilia SR 125 is priced at Rs. 2,88,900. Despite lacking recent updates and modern features, this scooter maintains its popularity with its punchy performance and distinctive SR 150-inspired styling. The SR 125 is currently available with a BS4-compliant engine and classic color options, retaining its bold aesthetic appeal in the market.

Key Specifications

Under the hood, the Aprilia SR 125 is powered by a 124.45cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, carbureted engine with 3-valve technology, producing a maximum power of 9.92 PS at 7700 rpm and torque of 9.9 Nm at 6250 rpm. This engine is mated to a CVT transmission and has a fuel tank capacity of 6.5 liters, making it suitable for both city rides and occasional longer trips. Its design allows for an aerodynamic riding stance, adding to its sporty feel.

Performance and Features

The Aprilia SR 125 delivers a raw and engaging ride, courtesy of its telescopic front suspension and monoshock rear suspension. The braking system includes a front disc brake and rear drum brake, which, paired with large 14-inch front and 12-inch rear tires, provides a stable and controlled ride on various terrains. The scooter’s analog instrument cluster may feel outdated, but the SR 125’s impressive ride quality and unique styling continue to attract enthusiasts.

Aprilia SR 125 Price in Nepal and Availability

The Aprilia SR 125 is available at Rs. 2,88,900 in Nepal. It is also closely priced with its sibling, the Aprilia Storm 125, which shares similarities but comes with smaller tires and a rear drum brake. Competing models in this range include the TVS NTorq 125, Yamaha Ray ZR 125, and Honda Grazia 125, each offering a more modern feature set but not necessarily the same level of performance.

With aggressive styling borrowed from the SR 150 and sharp handling characteristics, it appeals to riders who crave a sporty experience even on a scooter. Its 14-inch wheels and firm suspension deliver great stability and cornering confidence, especially on smooth roads. However, the stiff ride setup may feel harsh over uneven city streets, and the lack of modern features like digital instrumentation or fuel injection puts it behind newer rivals. Still, for those prioritizing style, brand value, and a performance-oriented ride, the SR 125 continues to be a compelling choice.
