Engineered by Aprilia for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2021 Aprilia RX 50 Factory pairs a 50 cc (3.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 39.9 x 40.0 mm (1.6 x 1.6 inches) with a 11.5:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the RX 50 Factory measures 104 kg (229 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 880 mm (34.6 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,395 mm (54.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.96 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 236 km (147 miles) between fill-ups.
Within MotoLibrary's Aprilia archive, this model family spans 5 indexed model years from 2018 to 2023, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
