Positioned in Aprilia's sport motorcycle lineup, the 1991 Aprilia AF1 125 Futura relies on a 125 cc (7.6 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 27 HP (19.7 kW) at 8,800 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 216 HP per liter, the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the AF1 125 Futura measures 140 kg (309 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.19 HP/kg (5.19 kg per horsepower). The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 158 km/h (98 mph).
