2011 Aprilia SR 50 R Factory

Aprilia SR50R Factory 


 Aprilia SR50R Factory | SR 50: the legend rides on, and gets better. Every year! When the SR 50 first came out, it was already in a class of its own. The “sports scooter” category was invented specially for it.
Now, the SR 50 features an aggressive new design, inspired by the RSV 1000 R Factory, but there’s more to it than style! The SR 50 incorporates numerous technical solutions derived directly from Aprilia’s world-beating maxi, to bring you the tops in equipment and the highest level of active safety you can get. With advanced technology, a legendary name, and guaranteed performance, the new SR is destined to be yet another Aprilia success story. Especially if ridden by people like you.
EVOLUTION OF THE SPECIES

Ever since it was first introduced, the SR has been the preferred scooter of the Aprilia Racing Team, and is used extensively at trials and race meetings to get quickly between pit lane and the paddock. Aprilia’s top riders can also be seen riding their SRs around town in total freedom. Just like you.
Aprilia’s SR 50 has set the pace for scooter technology ever since it was introduced in 1992. With the SR 50, Aprilia was the first manufacturer to offer a real sports scooter, creating a whole new market segment. Despite numerous attempts by the competition over the years, the SR 50 has remained the undisputed market leader, thanks to continuous upgrades in technology that have kept it beyond the reach of other scooters. The SR has set records at an incredible rate.


1992: the SR 50 was the first ever sports scooter

1993: the SR 50 was the first ever Racing Replica scooter

1994: the SR 50 was the first ever sports scooter with liquid cooling

1997: the SR 50 was the first ever scooter with two disc brakes

1999: the SR 50 was the first ever 50 cc scooter with electronic fuel injection
On top of all this, the SR 50 has always been instantly recognisable for its “big bike” characteristics like large diameter wheels, super-low profile tyres and top quality hydraulic suspensions.
The Aprilia SR 50 is universally recognised as the scooter to beat, as sales of over 800,000 units show. The SR has become a legend in its own time. It is also the scooter most in demand by young riders and all those who have a passion for sport and the world of motorcycle racing. More than a scooter, the SR is a way of life.
The best is not good enough for Aprilia! Research is continuous and unstoppable and the epoch-making innovations only recently introduced on Aprilia’s technological flagship, the RSV 1000, have already made their appearance on the new SR too. The SR resembles the RSV 1000 R Factory not just in appearance but in technical solutions too.
Now the SR is completely new. More modern in style, this latest SR also boasts better performance, reduced fuel consumption and greater reliability thanks to a second generation Ditech fuel injected engine. It even has a brand new frame for better than ever “big bike” handling. And when it comes to equipment, the SR 50 Factory is the flagship the others have to beat.
The SR 50’s uncompromising sports look accurately replicas the world of racing. As always, Aprilia is not content to offer the best technology available, but insists on the best design too. Technology and passion go hand in hand on the SR 50 R Factory. Its aggressive styling is clearly inspired by the RSV 1000 R Factory to guarantee head-turning beauty and emotion-packed riding.


See the SR 50 R Factory once and you’ll agree. It really is a “Mini RSV”. Family feeling is clear not just from the graphics, but from the technical solutions too. The streamlined leg-shield, powerful twin headlights, central air intake, and aerodynamic tail with integrated tail light and indicators are all just like those fitted to Aprilia’s supersports flagship. On the SR 50 R Factory attention to detail has reached heights never previously seen on any sports scooter. Even the color schemes are new, aggressive and lively, just as they should be on a sports machine that refuses to compromise.
The first ever scooter equipped with a fuel injected two stroke engine is now powered by a second generation Ditech engine. A new, more compact air filter and a special new exhaust design have increased performance and further reduced the engine’s already miserly fuel consumption. This generous 50 cc single cylinder engine also boasts a long list of innovations to improve functioning and make it more reliable than ever.

After all, it does have analog rev counter and a large LCD display for fuel level, coolant temperature, clock, speedometer, odometer, dual trip counters, journey time, maximum speed, 16 stage timer, battery voltage, and complete diagnostic system, but we shall limit ourselves to pointing out that all these functions are accessible from convenient handlebar controls.
