Positioned in Aprilia's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2017 Aprilia RS4 50 relies on a 49.9 cc (3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 39.9 x 39.9 mm (1.6 x 1.6 inches) with a 11.5:1 compression ratio.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,350 mm (53.1 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 14.5-liter (3.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
Within MotoLibrary's Aprilia archive, this model family spans 7 indexed model years from 2011 to 2018, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
