Yes this video is from 5years ago, however I am turning 16 soon and looking for a 50cc sports bike and the aprilia rs50 had really caught my eye, I can 100% agree with you that the rs50 looks amazing, especially the new model, I've told my parents that the rs50 is the one that I would like, but I cant seem to find any for a reasonable price for a first bike
nice video mate you seem very sensible and respectful witch is a great quality to have and very rare at 16 years old ,,I'm gonna watch your vids with your 125 now :-)
I have just recently been to see the RS4 50 finally haha :D They only had the 125's in stock but they're exactly the same pretty much. The bike looks so much larger in person compared to videos! Hopefully receiving it in a month or two ready for my CBT :)
Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm looking at this bike and also a piaggio Typhoon 50 2s. There's just so much choice, hard to know what to go for. I want something to enjoy this summer. Safe riding.
The rs50 and derbi have the same engine. Anything that isn't Chinese junk. TBH wait until your 17 and buy something worthwhile. Then keep that until you're 19 and do your test
Most people ( The Young Guys ) give people that ride smaller capacity bikes a hard time ,, They really don't know what they are missing , some in Australia gain their licence on up to a 650cc and never had the thought of riding a smaller bike , I wish I had a stable of 50cc ,, 125cc, 150,, to 250cc and a mix of Honda , Yamaha and Aprillia , They are an absolute blast and the most fun you can ever have , a Yamaha YZ150 cc is so light and nimble and quick off the mark , You will never get bored buzzing around the suburbs on these bikes and they are cheap to run and insure , People shouldn't knock something they have never ridden or tried . : )
I definitely agree. Of course, the bigger bikes are always going to be better but I absolutely enjoyed the year blasting on my 50cc. Plus they are so light, agile, and fun to ride - not to mention cheaper running costs and maintenance etc!
I own the previous model of RS 50 (1999-2005) and I find it a great little bike. This model has a higher build quality which is noticeable in things such as the fairings. There are some considerations needed when thinking about buying a geared 50 though:By law a 50cc can only go 28mph so if you de restrict it to achieve speeds up to 60mph then you are breaking the law. Will you continue riding after a 50 if not then you might be better off with a twist and go, however if you are then definitely get a geared bike.
Hey, I see you haven't had a reply yet so I'll help you out. A decent modern version will cost about £1000, and depending on insurance will cost between 400-600 depending on where you go (some bikes have alarms fitted, which reduces insurance price). As mentioned in the video running prices are cheap except oil changes. Hope this helps
+Harvey Connar What's going on Harvey, sorry for the late response. A 50cc geared motorbike whether it's supermoto or sportsbike will cost anywhere between £600 - £1200 dependent on age, condition and miles. For my first year insurance at the age of 16 it was £450 for the year (third party fire and theft). Other things to consider at MOT, Tax, Motorbike Gear/Protection and accessories.
Life on a 50cc would be made much easier with more power of course... Anyway - I was able to get up relatively steep hills if I had some power before entering - as long as you are holding the rev range in the power band it will pull you up with no problem!
If you are looking for a mode of transport using town roads and not big roads it'll be perfect. The RS4 is the newer model I believe, still a 50cc 2 stroke - just new fairings and what not. In regards to hills, if you are in the powerband it'll pull you up, no problem.
Moving up from the RS50 to the YZF-R125 was a worthy upgrade. Overall I much prefer the 4 strokes. Smooth power delivery and slightly higher top end than the 50cc. (70-80 Mph)
Not sure, the RS50 has two different models depending on what year you purchase. The old shape was much like a 'bubble' and the dashboard was far less electronic.
I'm looking at one of these for my son, when you said two strokes don't sound great🙄 I have no idea how old you are now I've just looked how old the video is, I can't remember if you stated your age or not, but as you're riding a 50 and a very cool one at that in this video, I would say you were 16-17 maybe you're not I don't know, you do not sound like your average 16-year old voice wise, but I hope by now you have ridden a real two-stroke the big boys toys version, if you have and you do not appreciate the sound get your hearing tested😆 thanks for the video though it's great to see that Aprilia are still making these little buzz bombs🤘
Hey Kevin! I was 16 at the time of recording, I moved up to a 125cc at 17. The RS50 was great fun, sportsbike feeling, an introduction to gears and the feeling of a power band. I later moved up to a Honda NSR125 (2 stroke). The sound of 2 strokes is a thing of beauty and I definitely feel it's something that grows on you. You learn to appreciate it as you better understand the world of biking. I was young and ignorant at the time! Good luck with the bike hunting, feel free to ask me any questions.
@@EvolutionMotovlogs that's great news two strokes rule👍💯 I may have a few questions at some point even though I have been riding on the road myself for 26 years I do not know all that much about Aprilia two strokes cheers bud, keep on smoking💨💨
@@EvolutionMotovlogs hey man Like I said earlier I do have some questions, it probably hasn't but does it have a power valve or anything like that? Is it just a smooth 2-stroke road bike? I only ask because I have been racing KTM 250 2-stroke Enduro bike's for over two decades now and they have a very snappy power delivery ( which is great fun🤣🤘) my son doesn't have any riding experience whatsoever so he will be learning everything on the Aprilia and obviously I do not want to waste any money and buy one for him if it's not great to learn on?
@@KevZX-10RC1H The RS50 has an obvious power band, but it's not overwhelming for a new rider. For me, the RS50 gave the me exposure and experience to being on the road, learning how to use a clutch and shifting through the gears. Lastly, it had that's sportsbike feeling and gave me that 'buzz'. Be mindful that they're only capable of 35 Mph restricted and 50 Mph or so derestricted. At 17 years old, the 125cc was more reliable and had a lot more oomph! Some prefer to wait until 17 years of age, others want to ride as soon as possible.
@@EvolutionMotovlogs sorry bud I didn't make myself clear I was talking about an adjustable power valve not the power band but it doesn't have one. He has decided he is going to have one of those bikes, he will not be waiting until he's 17 because he needs to get to work and have his own freedom of course
We own ( my dad own's) a Ducati 899 Panigale, had a '99 ZX6R before that. I grew up with and on bikes, did some dirtbike racing. even rode a 250cc at closed track days at a circuit my uncle owns. I'm 15 and I'm a pretty capable rider, even if I say so meself. The point is that the government will make me pay €600 for an AM license and blablabla and will make me wait untill im 22 to ride my dreambike legally ( which is a 959 panigale ). So hounestley fuck the system
why 22? if you said AM license, I think youre in the EU, that means if you have the A2 license with 18 and you have that for two years, you can get the A with 20 and ride the 959. But I think this system is alright. Just because you are a good track rider, doesnt mean you do well in traffic.
Motorcycle Rider we just sold our ducati 899 because we needed the money, i got my driver license and can drive 50cc bikes, i was looking at some 50cc and wich one do you recommend
Arlüx Belgium and I dont know where you are from ( I guess Italy it's that way there) but here it is 16 for AM, 18 for A1, 20 A2 and then 22/24 for the A license.
Arlüx and Yea but I can handle a motorbike, stay sharp, and I know the traffic rules since I have studied them 3 times already to be sure I dont fail because of them
+NLMOVIE12 They are both similar motorbikes. Derbi use the same engine as aprilia I believe. I wouldn't be able to compare as I have never owned one though.
Im going 16 in 2 weeks and this is the bike i want to start on my auntie has a boyfriend that rides bike and he recommends that if u dont like mopeds and u want to start out on racing bike/sports bike this is the bike you want.... in my opinion the new design is very nice but i do like the older design better there is no difference in them just the design so thanks dude for doing the review cause now i know that this bike is the one i want to start with
acer 991 You've got it spot on there! Definitely a great bike to start on if your looking for a racey sports bike! I prefer the new shape but everyone has their own person preference..
Love the video mate. Looking into getting this exact bike, do you do the modifications yourself? If not is it expensive at a garage or motorbike workshop? Thanks a lot
I much prefer the supermoto style bike like my Derbi Senda DRD 50, however I agree with your review from a 50 cc standpoint, perfect for town and also for minor bendy roads in the country as they are usually 40 mph limit anyway, and my bike handles amazingly around them, and because of the very low range in speed between each gear it gets you used to making quick decisions, and using the clutch/gears, and incredibly cheap to run/fuel/repair. Nice review and you do not sound 16 haha
My bike with a performance exhaust has around 10 bhp, with stock exhaust it is around 3 bhp, but both bikes can be as fast as each other as they use basically the same engine
Suzuki ts50 (my bike), Yamaha DT50 are perfect starting 50cc imo, not a silly looking moped (areox), and doesn't look like a superbike which the sound/performance disappoints, let's not start with the fairing costs (rs50). Where as the dual sport 50cc look nice and are suitable for off road tracks etc.
Awesome looking bike but i still love my tzr50. At least for a couple of months until i get the yzfr125. Realy looking forward to it. Do you have a stock exhaust or standard? I have a leovince x-fight.
My brother has Rieju RS3 50 2011 model and its brilliant, comfy sitting position, very fast for a 50, he's had 66mph out of it and everything is stock, just been de-redistricted
Two questions, I'm 6'3" (about 192cm?) and not exactly an acrobat, would I be able to fit on this thing (not necessarily comfortably), and on a car, it's best to jump start in 2nd gear, is this the case in motorbikes as well?
You're slightly taller than me, I would really recommend finding an Aprilia RS50 to sit on and see how you feel. Uh, I'm pretty sure 2nd is the way to go! But 1st worked fine for me.
Hey dude, subscribed:) I'm 16 and am 17 in October I start college in September it would take me about 20 miles to get there and 29 to get back, I have to get a 50cc as it lets me ride ASAP. Is this bike really worth it? It's the best thing I can find for a 50cc and it looks nice. Just any advice and do you do an ordinary cbt or because it's geared have to do more?
RDGRNYLW What's going on dude, welcome to the channel! If your going for a 50cc then the Aprilia RS50 would be a good choice for your travels - They can push 55mph. In order to ride you'd need to do a CBT either on a scooter or geared bike - up to you. Due to the amount of miles you'll be doing on such bike you'll need to keep on top of maintenance.
I’m 16. Most of my family have bikes. Recently I’ve taken a fancy to bikes. But at 16 obviously you can only have a 50cc. I want something like this. More of a sports bike than a moped. How much on insurance in comparison is it to a standard moped. Thanks.
I'd certainly recommend a geared 50cc, you'll get to learn the riding style, cornering, ergonomics of the bike and such. My insurance was around £300 for my very first year but there are so many variables involved - it could be cheaper or more expensive for you. I'd recommend that you run a test quote.
hi all. I recently bought an Aprilia RS50 moped after sitting for 3 years. It drives great, started from the pushrod even without rebuilding the carburetor. but there is one problem, it won't start with the button. I found the location of the starter relay on the left side on the back side of the frame, apparently it is attached with a screw to the plastic battery niche. Has anyone found out how to remove it? without dismantling the entire moped?
I mean physically big since that's I assume that's what you were referring too in the video when you said that your bike was big. engine capacity is still small on both bikes but the varadero is a large adventure touring bike that was originally designed to be a 250cc bike. its very big physically :D
Hi mate, first I want to say fantastic videos keep it up. Secondly that bike is a 50cc but you can go 50MPH. At 16 you're ment to have one that goes 30MPH so how did you get a faster one at 16?
+the lone wolf Thank you very much! In theory the law is that you can't exceed the speed of 30MPH. I personally feel that is ridiculous. If you de-restrict the 50cc it will be capable of speeds of 40-60mph. I would commute to work doing 40/50mph and never had any problems with it! :)
The Gilera DNA is a 'twist and go' whereas the RS50 has gears. Chose which motorbike will be more suitable for you. Personally I'd prefer to own a RS50 as it has gears. The choice is yours! :)
i think the best 50cc beginner bikes are supermotos/enduros they are a bit better in the corners and are bigger so you feel more like on a real big bike i love it
There are various restrictors and performance enhancements to consider. Air Intake restrictor, Upjet the Carburetor, Change the sprockets/gearing and replace exhaust system with a 'race' restricted pipe. Also, perhaps an ECU restrictor?
In finland you get a 50cc when you are 15, 125cc at 16, max 35kw bike at 18 and unlimited at 20 if you bought a 35kw at 18 or at 24 if you didnt buy a 35kw bike.
Hey man, I'm thinking of getting a moped/scooter as I am 16 now, This bike is very appealing to me and I've heard many good things about it on reviews etc. Only thing I'm unsure on is where to get things like the clothing and helmets from, any ideas?
+Jonathan Smith Getting Motorbike Gear/Clothing is the easy part! My top tip is to not purchase it online. Make sure you go in to a shop and try it before purchasing it. There should be plenty of bike gear shops dotted around you - I have about three local to me! :)
+OriginalSauceGaming | And loads more !!! That's a good question as I closely considered the RS2 over the RS50. I looked at several of them online but in the end an Aprilia was available more locally. I couldn't give you my thoughts or review as I've never owned one, but from my research online they seem to be recommended. Hope that helps :)
Hey bro i know im writig 5 years after u uploaded but would you reccomend this bike for me? i never rode this bike before but i've always liked speed. Does this bike need a lot of maintenance and how much does it consume?
Is there any point in getting a 50cc bike when you can wait a year and get a 125cc? I'm 15 and thinking about getting a motorbike license instead of a car one.
anyone know where to get a hold of the rs 50 or rs 4 50? ive been on ebay, amazon, auto trader and also gmtree but i cant seem to find any working ones...help!
no way, if you want a 200cc and up sports bike sound you don't EVER get a 50cc, or 125cc, just go get a 200cc and up, besides this is 2 stroke, it will never EVER sound like a 200cc sports bike 4 stroke.
yea i know i own a 125 bike but im not legally the age to get a licence for that. im gonna buy a 70cc sportsbike to learn the basics of riding a sports bike.
+Joel Bingo Well, once you've got the bike it's pretty cheap from then onwards. My insurance was relatively cheap (£400), Tax is abour £20 and then if you don't own bike gear you'd need to add that on to the costs. It's still going to be hell of a lot cheaper than driving at 17 and you get out and about a whole year earlier!
About your exhaust, is it pretty much something to make it sound and in some cases look better rather than anything else? If it's just that I might save some money and save the exhaust until last.
+Jonathan Smith The sports exhaust system play a big part in a performance boost. They provide a better power band especially if you have upgraded the carb jets e.c.t
+Jonathan Smith I'm working on videos now, should expect consistent videos every month. Always trying to upload as frequently as I can so stay tuned :)
+EvolutionMotovlogs im thinking about doing some performance upgrades soon and doing a derestriction. Soon as I went on my friends scooter (unrestricted) my bike felt horrible. Do you recommend any exhaust in particular or carb jets as you mentioned? And how much would I spend on it
So 5 years later. I imagine u have your A or A2 now. I wanna get this bike honestly just for speed. Do I need to do Lots of work to make them fast or If I get one to my door will it be Good? Cheers Fella
If you are buying brand new you will have to get a de restriction kit and maybe an aftermarket exhaust, if you are buying second hand they will already most likely derestricted and have a better exhaust
Henry G it reall depends on how the previous owners cared for it, mine for example only needed a carb and recently a new throttle cable, however a friend had serious engine problems that he never cured and his was 5 years newer and had half the owners
Was this second hand or first hand as I’m nearly 16 and I’m wanting to get that bike in particular but I’m worried about price like insurance and how much brand new and second hand
+Evan Davis I know the feeling, I wish I could ride something bigger than my 125! UK Laws only allow upto 11kw (125cc) of power at 17. Not sure where you are from, but you'll be in the same boat as me if you are in the UK.
EvolutionMotovlogs It's a shame the microphone doesn't pick us the sound as well. I've got myself a 125 with a Yoshimura exhaust, it sounds so much deeper than my rs50 (picking it up this week)!
hey mate, im 16 just about to pass my CBT and buy an RS50 from eBay, i don't think its restricted and was wondering if i need to get it modified to get it restricted. in this video is your bike restricted and to what speed?
+Tobias Burden Both my Aprilias had been de-restricted from purchase. Personally I think it's much safer to ride de-restricted and in fact I recorded a video in relation to restrictions at 16 yesterday. Video might not be out for a week or so though... If it's restricted it will only be capable of 30mph. If it's de-restricted it will be capable of 50-70mph. In terms of getting it restricted could be quite some hassle, not to sure. Depends on what modifications have been done? Carbs, Sprockets, Exhausts e.c.t

Evo where abouts are you in the country? Might be interested in coming and meeting you if you'd be interested in the new season
I'm from Kent :)
Geared mopeds are the beast to start with, they are basically a small engine motorcycle xD
Precisely! Despite the lack of power, my geared RS50 was great fun and good experience.
What are these like going up hills? Reason I ask is I live in the Peak District and it's obviously quite hilly here.
Life on a 50cc would be made much easier with more power of course... Anyway - I was able to get up relatively steep hills if I had some power before entering - as long as you are holding the rev range in the power band it will pull you up with no problem!
+EvolutionMotovlogs thanks for the reply. I was just concerned because I don't want to not be able to get up hills etc.
Cheers :)
No problem at all :)
since it's 50 cc can't u have it when your 16 years old?
You can ride a 50cc at the age of 16 on a CBT.
Are these 50cc bikes good and how good do they do when you drive op on a hill??
What is the difference between the rs 50 and the rs4 50??
If you are looking for a mode of transport using town roads and not big roads it'll be perfect. The RS4 is the newer model I believe, still a 50cc 2 stroke - just new fairings and what not. In regards to hills, if you are in the powerband it'll pull you up, no problem.
EvolutionMotovlogs ok thanks:) should. Buy a new one or one that have been used??
EvolutionMotovlogs where I live there aren't any big roads :) I live in Faroe Islands ;)
I would definitely recommend getting a second hand motorbike. Much cheaper and as it's your first bike, your likely to drop it etc.
how does it compare to your new Yamaha yzf50? I have a derbi gpr right now but it runs similarly to a 125 (55mph top speed)
Moving up from the RS50 to the YZF-R125 was a worthy upgrade. Overall I much prefer the 4 strokes. Smooth power delivery and slightly higher top end than the 50cc. (70-80 Mph)
REALLY ENJOYED THE REVIEW WELL DONE.

What is the difference in the rs4 50 after 2007?
Not sure, the RS50 has two different models depending on what year you purchase. The old shape was much like a 'bubble' and the dashboard was far less electronic.
EvolutionMotovlogs so after 2008 there aren’t any differences until the newest ? Other than color.
this bike looks like a right laugh to ride :") i ride an Yamaha R125 but wouldnt mind testing one of these because it looks so fun! :")
Certainly was fun! Try and get on one if you can.. :)
I'm looking at one of these for my son, when you said two strokes don't sound great🙄 I have no idea how old you are now I've just looked how old the video is, I can't remember if you stated your age or not, but as you're riding a 50 and a very cool one at that in this video, I would say you were 16-17 maybe you're not I don't know, you do not sound like your average 16-year old voice wise, but I hope by now you have ridden a real two-stroke the big boys toys version, if you have and you do not appreciate the sound get your hearing tested😆 thanks for the video though it's great to see that Aprilia are still making these little buzz bombs🤘
Hey Kevin!
I was 16 at the time of recording, I moved up to a 125cc at 17.
The RS50 was great fun, sportsbike feeling, an introduction to gears and the feeling of a power band. I later moved up to a Honda NSR125 (2 stroke).
The sound of 2 strokes is a thing of beauty and I definitely feel it's something that grows on you. You learn to appreciate it as you better understand the world of biking. I was young and ignorant at the time!
Good luck with the bike hunting, feel free to ask me any questions.
@@EvolutionMotovlogs that's great news two strokes rule👍💯 I may have a few questions at some point even though I have been riding on the road myself for 26 years I do not know all that much about Aprilia two strokes cheers bud, keep on smoking💨💨
@@EvolutionMotovlogs hey man
Like I said earlier I do have some questions, it probably hasn't but does it have a power valve or anything like that? Is it just a smooth 2-stroke road bike? I only ask because I have been racing KTM 250 2-stroke Enduro bike's for over two decades now and they have a very snappy power delivery ( which is great fun🤣🤘) my son doesn't have any riding experience whatsoever so he will be learning everything on the Aprilia and obviously I do not want to waste any money and buy one for him if it's not great to learn on?
@@KevZX-10RC1H The RS50 has an obvious power band, but it's not overwhelming for a new rider.
For me, the RS50 gave the me exposure and experience to being on the road, learning how to use a clutch and shifting through the gears. Lastly, it had that's sportsbike feeling and gave me that 'buzz'.
Be mindful that they're only capable of 35 Mph restricted and 50 Mph or so derestricted.
At 17 years old, the 125cc was more reliable and had a lot more oomph!
Some prefer to wait until 17 years of age, others want to ride as soon as possible.
@@EvolutionMotovlogs sorry bud I didn't make myself clear I was talking about an adjustable power valve not the power band but it doesn't have one. He has decided he is going to have one of those bikes, he will not be waiting until he's 17 because he needs to get to work and have his own freedom of course
We own ( my dad own's) a Ducati 899 Panigale, had a '99 ZX6R before that. I grew up with and on bikes, did some dirtbike racing. even rode a 250cc at closed track days at a circuit my uncle owns.
I'm 15 and I'm a pretty capable rider, even if I say so meself. The point is that the government will make me pay €600 for an AM license and blablabla and will make me wait untill im 22 to ride my dreambike legally ( which is a 959 panigale ). So hounestley fuck the system
Fuck the system!
why 22? if you said AM license, I think youre in the EU, that means if you have the A2 license with 18 and you have that for two years, you can get the A with 20 and ride the 959. But I think this system is alright. Just because you are a good track rider, doesnt mean you do well in traffic.
Motorcycle Rider we just sold our ducati 899 because we needed the money, i got my driver license and can drive 50cc bikes, i was looking at some 50cc and wich one do you recommend
Arlüx Belgium and I dont know where you are from ( I guess Italy it's that way there) but here it is 16 for AM, 18 for A1, 20 A2 and then 22/24 for the A license.
Arlüx and Yea but I can handle a motorbike, stay sharp, and I know the traffic rules since I have studied them 3 times already to be sure I dont fail because of them
anyone selling a rs50??
Best to check eBay, Gumtree, Biketrader and local garages in your area.
What do you think about the Derbi Gpr 50 ? And how do you think it compares to the Aprillia RS50 ?
+NLMOVIE12 They are both similar motorbikes. Derbi use the same engine as aprilia I believe. I wouldn't be able to compare as I have never owned one though.
Im going 16 in 2 weeks and this is the bike i want to start on my auntie has a boyfriend that rides bike and he recommends that if u dont like mopeds and u want to start out on racing bike/sports bike this is the bike you want.... in my opinion the new design is very nice but i do like the older design better there is no difference in them just the design so thanks dude for doing the review cause now i know that this bike is the one i want to start with
acer 991 You've got it spot on there! Definitely a great bike to start on if your looking for a racey sports bike! I prefer the new shape but everyone has their own person preference..
EvolutionMotovlogs yeah dude the both of them are real nice im thinking about going for the new shape of the bike not to sure yet.
+acer 991 I prefer the new shape, but only because it looks nicer!
At the end of the day, they both will perform the same and mostly similar.
lol I'm 12 and I ride a 125..
Legally? Stfu
OriginalSauceGaming | And loads more !!! Pit bike..
+Seigin1Craft yeah I guessed that but this is about learner legal bikes to be ridden on the road
OriginalSauceGaming | And loads more !!! yeah.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA 125? try me at 1100, well i am 18 and i dont get to ride it much, im in the royal navy fleet air arm, in fact im on leave so yay!
I’m thinking of getting one of these as my first bike I’m 16 now turning 17 in 6 months
TrixHD nearly 17 and still playing fort nite jesus u fucking sad
Good video mate keep it up what new bike you getting if you are that should be good for a 125
I have got the Honda NSR 125cc.
i love that name tango !! so cute
Tango was great, loved the name! :)
Nice review, and well detailed..
Love the video mate. Looking into getting this exact bike, do you do the modifications yourself? If not is it expensive at a garage or motorbike workshop? Thanks a lot
+Adam Peer Thanks mate, most of the modifications came like it.
But they are simple enough to do :)
I much prefer the supermoto style bike like my Derbi Senda DRD 50, however I agree with your review from a 50 cc standpoint, perfect for town and also for minor bendy roads in the country as they are usually 40 mph limit anyway, and my bike handles amazingly around them, and because of the very low range in speed between each gear it gets you used to making quick decisions, and using the clutch/gears, and incredibly cheap to run/fuel/repair. Nice review and you do not sound 16 haha
+Joshua Harris My friend owned a Derbi Senda 50 and it seemed a little less handle as it has less fairings/plastics.
Thanks for the feedback man! :)
+EvolutionMotovlogs was the rs4 faster ?
No, both the same power output I'm sure!
+EvolutionMotovlogs ok but THe gpr 50has got 6.4hp and the senda 5.7 will the derbi gpr 50 Be faster ?
My bike with a performance exhaust has around 10 bhp, with stock exhaust it is around 3 bhp, but both bikes can be as fast as each other as they use basically the same engine
Any other 50cc motorbike that looks like a sports bike or the Aprilia is the only one? Great video btw!!
Saw it on gumtree I think the transformer sticker gave it away haha
Haha! Good ol' transformers... ;)
Hey I really want one of these bikes but I can't find them anywhere. Where did you get yours?
Try Gumtree, eBay, Biketrader, Craigslist and such.
I’m getting a mash fifty 50c, love the style of it
Suzuki ts50 (my bike), Yamaha DT50 are perfect starting 50cc imo, not a silly looking moped (areox), and doesn't look like a superbike which the sound/performance disappoints, let's not start with the fairing costs (rs50). Where as the dual sport 50cc look nice and are suitable for off road tracks etc.
I agree! A derbi senda was the starting bike one of my friends went for - the lack of fairings is a bonus! :)
Awesome looking bike but i still love my tzr50. At least for a couple of months until i get the yzfr125. Realy looking forward to it. Do you have a stock exhaust or standard? I have a leovince x-fight.
Never mind, gianelli
+marin patje That's the one, I've got a Gianelli after market system.
My brother has Rieju RS3 50 2011 model and its brilliant, comfy sitting position, very fast for a 50, he's had 66mph out of it and everything is stock, just been de-redistricted
connor phillips Awesome to hear! Safe riding...
Two questions, I'm 6'3" (about 192cm?) and not exactly an acrobat, would I be able to fit on this thing (not necessarily comfortably), and on a car, it's best to jump start in 2nd gear, is this the case in motorbikes as well?
You're slightly taller than me, I would really recommend finding an Aprilia RS50 to sit on and see how you feel. Uh, I'm pretty sure 2nd is the way to go! But 1st worked fine for me.
Okay, thanks for the help!
No problem.
Hey dude, subscribed:)
I'm 16 and am 17 in October I start college in September it would take me about 20 miles to get there and 29 to get back, I have to get a 50cc as it lets me ride ASAP. Is this bike really worth it? It's the best thing I can find for a 50cc and it looks nice. Just any advice and do you do an ordinary cbt or because it's geared have to do more?
RDGRNYLW What's going on dude, welcome to the channel! If your going for a 50cc then the Aprilia RS50 would be a good choice for your travels - They can push 55mph. In order to ride you'd need to do a CBT either on a scooter or geared bike - up to you. Due to the amount of miles you'll be doing on such bike you'll need to keep on top of maintenance.
I want to buy an rs 50, but I think I am too big, im 15 and I am 6.2.
What do you think?
Are you in the USA? If so just buy a used Honda cb750 for $500
@@moparmanicgarage nop in in europe. I bought a derbi senda with 70cc am6 engine
this bike looks SICK
+Jonas Schaaf Thanks! :)
so you're 22 now ? :D Im 16 now
I’m 16. Most of my family have bikes. Recently I’ve taken a fancy to bikes. But at 16 obviously you can only have a 50cc. I want something like this. More of a sports bike than a moped. How much on insurance in comparison is it to a standard moped. Thanks.
I'd certainly recommend a geared 50cc, you'll get to learn the riding style, cornering, ergonomics of the bike and such. My insurance was around £300 for my very first year but there are so many variables involved - it could be cheaper or more expensive for you. I'd recommend that you run a test quote.
Hey bro is it 50cc and it can go 40 or is it derestricted?
Abdul King Aprilla rs50 the clue is in the name yes it is 50cc
That’s not what I was asking so please shut up you fucktard
hi all. I recently bought an Aprilia RS50 moped after sitting for 3 years. It drives great, started from the pushrod even without rebuilding the carburetor. but there is one problem, it won't start with the button. I found the location of the starter relay on the left side on the back side of the frame, apparently it is attached with a screw to the plastic battery niche. Has anyone found out how to remove it? without dismantling the entire moped?
im laughing so hard when you say its a big bike when im sitting here on my varadero xl 125 XD
Are you referring to physically big or engine capacity?
I mean physically big since that's I assume that's what you were referring too in the video when you said that your bike was big. engine capacity is still small on both bikes but the varadero is a large adventure touring bike that was originally designed to be a 250cc bike. its very big physically :D
The Varadero is huge! Ride safe :)
thanks, you too.
I have an question do you think 16 in usa can ride this and does it have pedals and in the USA it say you need pedals
Great vid. Thanks
Thanks for watching! :)
what’s the maximum money i should spend on a bike on my birthday it’s the 17th of june ?
Nice video man! Aprilia rx/sx50 is also a good choice, such as a Yamaha dt50.. There are many to choose from :) I've got an '11 Aprilia sx50 :)
SomeRiderGuy Also I got mine kinda modded too the only problem is that it drinks nearly 8pounds a DAY...
SomeRiderGuy Woah, alot of petrol for a 50cc! haha...
EvolutionMotovlogs Yup, but that's if I go around speeding though... Max I've done is 8pounds for 3 days
Hi mate, first I want to say fantastic videos keep it up. Secondly that bike is a 50cc but you can go 50MPH. At 16 you're ment to have one that goes 30MPH so how did you get a faster one at 16?
+the lone wolf Thank you very much! In theory the law is that you can't exceed the speed of 30MPH. I personally feel that is ridiculous. If you de-restrict the 50cc it will be capable of speeds of 40-60mph. I would commute to work doing 40/50mph and never had any problems with it! :)
I got a question for you can you do a video on how to change gears on the 50cc sports bike
+Joshua jjohnsonfan48j@aol.com I will do a video on how to change gears :)
Nice video! Any recommendations for used 50cc sport bikes under about £600? That's my budget from saving lol.
Isaac Lyons I got a 2010 Aprilia sx 50 for £500 u can work off this to try and get a good deal! Try ebay 👍
@@DNNY-mc4ny thanks for the reply, I've been looking for a few months most nights and haven't found one that cheap yet. Fingers crossed 🤞
what is your view on the gilera dna 50cc, would it be worth it if I purchase a 70cc dna over an original rs 50?
The Gilera DNA is a 'twist and go' whereas the RS50 has gears. Chose which motorbike will be more suitable for you. Personally I'd prefer to own a RS50 as it has gears. The choice is yours! :)
where can I buy a second hand 50cc supermoto in the UK? I've looked at different websites and I can't seem to find anything.
Pretty difficult to find, I searched Gumtree, eBay and Biketrader.
i think the best 50cc beginner bikes are supermotos/enduros they are a bit better in the corners and are bigger so you feel more like on a real big bike i love it
+Rogee LP Either way they are both great - it depends what type of experience you are looking for but supermotos are more forgiving.
Sure
that exhaust is awesome giannelli is great
It worked well! Looks great, increases performance and sounds good for a 2 stroke! :)
+EvolutionMotovlogs :D
How do you derestrict the RS4 50?
Also how much would it cost the get it derestricted by a dealer .ect ?
There are various restrictors and performance enhancements to consider. Air Intake restrictor, Upjet the Carburetor, Change the sprockets/gearing and replace exhaust system with a 'race' restricted pipe. Also, perhaps an ECU restrictor?
I wish Honda would bring back their 50cc MB5, or Kawasaki bring back their AR50. Both were great, fun, 50cc motorcycles!
+AudiophileTubes Gotta love the 50cc bikes!
In finland you get a 50cc when you are 15, 125cc at 16, max 35kw bike at 18 and unlimited at 20 if you bought a 35kw at 18 or at 24 if you didnt buy a 35kw bike.
UK Laws are much stricter and slightly different.
EvolutionMotovlogs yeah i have realised that thought that i would just say😂
Hey man, I'm thinking of getting a moped/scooter as I am 16 now, This bike is very appealing to me and I've heard many good things about it on reviews etc. Only thing I'm unsure on is where to get things like the clothing and helmets from, any ideas?
+Jonathan Smith Getting Motorbike Gear/Clothing is the easy part! My top tip is to not purchase it online. Make sure you go in to a shop and try it before purchasing it. There should be plenty of bike gear shops dotted around you - I have about three local to me! :)
Okay thanks a bunch :) Also love the content! Keep it up!
+Jonathan Smith Thanks man, stay tuned! :)
+EvolutionMotovlogs thoughts on the reiju rs2 50?
+OriginalSauceGaming | And loads more !!! That's a good question as I closely considered the RS2 over the RS50.
I looked at several of them online but in the end an Aprilia was available more locally. I couldn't give you my thoughts or review as I've never owned one, but from my research online they seem to be recommended.
Hope that helps :)
+EvolutionMotovlogs thanks this really helped me :)
No worries :)

anyone know where to get a hold of the rs 50 or rs 4 50? ive been on ebay, amazon, auto trader and also gmtree but i cant seem to find any working ones...help!
Are you from the UK?
yes, im from manchester
Can anyone recommend where to get one from, I’ve been interested for so long but only seem to find them on EBay, is there any websites?
Facebook marketplace is where most of them are
anyway to make these bikes to sound a little bit more evil? any exhausts that would make it sound like a 200cc and up sports bike
and um whats the top speed of that?
no way, if you want a 200cc and up sports bike sound you don't EVER get a 50cc, or 125cc, just go get a 200cc and up, besides this is 2 stroke, it will never EVER sound like a 200cc sports bike 4 stroke.
yea i know i own a 125 bike but im not legally the age to get a licence for that. im gonna buy a 70cc sportsbike to learn the basics of riding a sports bike.
Unfortunately not, I tried and did plenty of research. a 50cc will sound like a 50cc - there is no secret. The 2 strokes gives it the 'tinny' sound.
Super
Is it possible to change the exhaust though? It really sounds awful for its great look xD
You can change the exhaust, there are several manufactures about (Arrow, Gianelli & DEP). But they'll all have a similar 2 stroke note.
thing looks fun as hell to ride haha
+tony wilson Sure is! :)
was that your first bike?
+tony wilson I owned three Aprilia RS50s but yes - it was the two wheel I had ever rode.
it has been 8 years :0
I'm 16 in a month and I was planning to get one, but how much all together did it cost you to get on the road ?
+Joel Bingo Well, once you've got the bike it's pretty cheap from then onwards. My insurance was relatively cheap (£400), Tax is abour £20 and then if you don't own bike gear you'd need to add that on to the costs. It's still going to be hell of a lot cheaper than driving at 17 and you get out and about a whole year earlier!
Is this like midsize bike as far as physical dimensions go?
About your exhaust, is it pretty much something to make it sound and in some cases look better rather than anything else? If it's just that I might save some money and save the exhaust until last.
+Jonathan Smith The sports exhaust system play a big part in a performance boost. They provide a better power band especially if you have upgraded the carb jets e.c.t
+Jonathan Smith Obviously it will look different and sound different too^
Oh okay! Thanks for that, otherwise I would've just skipped it completely until last.
Also when do you know when more videos might be coming?
+Jonathan Smith I'm working on videos now, should expect consistent videos every month. Always trying to upload as frequently as I can so stay tuned :)
+EvolutionMotovlogs im thinking about doing some performance upgrades soon and doing a derestriction. Soon as I went on my friends scooter (unrestricted) my bike felt horrible. Do you recommend any exhaust in particular or carb jets as you mentioned? And how much would I spend on it
Where can I buy one of these if you live in the United States please and thank you
What bike you have now?
hey man i am looking for a 50 cc dirt bike you know any good brands that are not bad qquality and fit a 6 foot 13 year old
Derbi Senda 50cc - similar components to Aprilia but it's a supermoto/dirtbike style.
So 5 years later. I imagine u have your A or A2 now.
I wanna get this bike honestly just for speed. Do I need to do Lots of work to make them fast or If I get one to my door will it be Good? Cheers Fella
If you are buying brand new you will have to get a de restriction kit and maybe an aftermarket exhaust, if you are buying second hand they will already most likely derestricted and have a better exhaust
Hokage Reece Do you have one ?
Henry G yeah i have a 2006 model
Hokage Reece yeh I didn’t realise how expensive they were. Are the older models just as good or am I just going to have issues later down the line
Henry G it reall depends on how the previous owners cared for it, mine for example only needed a carb and recently a new throttle cable, however a friend had serious engine problems that he never cured and his was 5 years newer and had half the owners
In italy we drive 50cc motorcycles at 14 yo and 125cc at 16

hey mate, im 16 just about to pass my CBT and buy an RS50 from eBay, i don't think its restricted and was wondering if i need to get it modified to get it restricted. in this video is your bike restricted and to what speed?
+Tobias Burden Both my Aprilias had been de-restricted from purchase.
Personally I think it's much safer to ride de-restricted and in fact I recorded a video in relation to restrictions at 16 yesterday. Video might not be out for a week or so though...
If it's restricted it will only be capable of 30mph.
If it's de-restricted it will be capable of 50-70mph.
In terms of getting it restricted could be quite some hassle, not to sure.
Depends on what modifications have been done? Carbs, Sprockets, Exhausts e.c.t
