Built around Aprilia's super motard motorcycle platform, the 2019 Aprilia SX 50 features a 50 cc (3.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. 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 SX 50 measures 99 kg (218 lbs) wet (curb). 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 1,365 mm (53.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.14 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 223 km (139 miles) between fill-ups.
Within MotoLibrary's Aprilia archive, this model family spans 14 indexed model years from 2007 to 2022, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
