2B: Aprilia Rs125 Vs Derbi GPR 125

[AcapAsyraf]

reaLLi meh which part??

[WawanAprilia]

The part when u blink ya eyes and shes not on the bike anymore ...

[sh3rman]

it doesnt take skill to go ride fast in a straight..

each bike has it pros and cons..

fun in riding is nt purely speed..

ask scrambler riders they say its dirt..

ask cruiser riders they say its comfort..

so on..

 

since TS looking for fun rides, i guess rs125 fits it nicely..

[Aiden_89]

I forgot? But im very sure she rode an rs125 because i shouted when i saw that scene...

[br0kensoul]

yeah she did rode a rs125 red colour one.the scene is b4 she heads back to her work shop wid the crack of the cube.

[Man Donut]

Wats with comparing abt wat bike is more of a embarrasment??

Biking culture is abt brotherhood, RESPECT, thats the word...

It doesnt matter your faster then the rest of the bikes in this world...

Cuz in singapore, no matter how fast you go, I'll still cya at the traffic light in front...

 

K back to the topic, rs and derbi gpr....

I rode my friends rs, super shiok, can rev here n there, sound not bad wit arrow pipe...

Alot of power to overtake, and a super chick magnet...

 

I test rode the gpr, more relax, riding position more or less abt the same, not as noisy but rev high enuf sounds quite good, power is enuf for transportation ard singapore, if you wanna bring it to track maybe can upgrade to 200cc big bore kit...can hit ard 160km/hr. (Saw it on youtube)...

 

But i can say lah, Compare rs and derbi...I go green, I go derbi!

Coz, i find the speed is enuf for me, Looks chio, alot of high quality stuff pack inside, good build quality, easy to maintain becuz 4stroke, nicer on my wallet cuz doesnt drink my petrol like dragging stout...

 

But at the on the day, its your bike, just get the one you love. Weight the pros and cons.

When you get that bike, confirm no regrets coz you love it. Dont care wat peep say, cuz at the end of the day, your the rider.

[lycan]

my friend actually tried the Derbi bike... he rides a SP.... He said the bike is very comfortable and is very ideal for cruising like what you guys mentioned... and he say going over humps are'nt a big problem compare to his SP.... however he did say the power is not there at all... and after much consideration...

 

I decided to get a rs125 because the main reason to get a bike is the passion i have for bike and if i really want comfort i could always drive a car out...

 

Thanks for all the effort!!

[Giam123]

how much is a derbi gpr now? may i know which shops sells this bike?

[Blahhh]

if u want power and looks, why even bother considering the gpr125 -_-

[kmax]

aiya... dont think so much..

 

get normal bike as everyone does..

 

2B.. phantom

2A.. super4

class 2... fazer or busa then change later..

[ProFatSir]

thread closed

 

TS got himself a rs125.

[CSV]

i more towards gpr 125, because its a 4 stroke and it looks nice.

 

but both bikes are too big for my wallet to handle...sigh.

 

ts, just buy whatever bike you like, dont bother about what others say, of course gotta factor in other cost like maintainance and stuff.

the new gpr 125 is 4 stroke liao. 15hp only. but digital meter la.

 

is like the rs125 performs well in bed but looks average whereas the gpr 125 is like a supermodel but is a dead fish when it comes to performance.

[homer simpson]

derby machine price is about 11.5k. i dont think its worth it.

but its looks super cool.

[SlowButSteady Bro]

My cousin who ride a Honda PGM 4 250cc sell off his bike to buy this.He got fed up of NEA fines and the maintenance cause he is using a Honda Civic 2.0 too.So far after 2 mths of usage he is satisfied with the bike although its not as fast as Aprilia.But the pick up and mid torque curve is there,Good for city riding..He is planning to upgrade to Malossi big bore 150cc kits.The fastest he clock on a GPS is 141kmh.His accessories includ a full GPR exhaust,Jetting kit for carb,BMC Filter and valv clearance.

[onelegkick]

Bro

 

You have VERY GOOD explanation and good illustration on 2 stroke and 4 stroke and how itmay affect beginners ... especially I like your scenario when the bike wobble especially when you make a U-Turn and then you unsuspecting throttle up on a 2 stroke bike and then you kena a unexpected wheelie and then wham accident...

 

Good job !!! I wouldn't have explained it so much simpler and clearly like you did.

Thanks man !

[M_Power]

anymore reviews?

 

Still thinking which to get or even consider the Yamaha Rs125 which I cant find any on used market

[niteblade]

even motogp phasing out the 125 two strokes in favor for 4 strokes in 2012... they're gonna disappear in the next decade or two... experience the fun of two stroke while you can!

 

im not a fan of the sound of two strokes though. pehhh pehhh pehhhhh. i'd take my vhreeeeeeee anytime

[Jehuty]

Simple, go with what you like and you'll never regret, even if there are problems, you'll learn much more along the way than those who play safe.

 

IMO, go for the 2 strokers, no more 2 strokers in the future, blame it on industrialised nations.
