Aprilia Storm 125 2026 Price - Images & Specifications

Riding the Aprilia SR Storm 125 gives you a sense of having a sporty, nimble scooter beneath you — its heart is a 124.49 cc, air‑cooled, single‑cylinder engine with a 3‑valve head and fuel injection. That sounds modest, but in the context of urban and everyday commuting it’s tuned to deliver consistent, usable performance. With about 9.92 PS of power at 7,700 rpm and 9.7 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm, the Storm 125 doesn’t offer wild acceleration, but it provides smooth, predictable acceleration that’s more than enough to dart through city traffic or handle daily errands without fuss. The automatic CVT + belt‑drive means you don’t need to worry about shifting — just twist and go, which is ideal for traffic, frequent stops or unpredictable stop‑and‑go conditions.

Underneath, the Storm rides on a tubular steel frame, supported up front by a telescopic fork (with a 30 mm inner tube) and at the rear by a mono‑shock absorber. The wheels are 12‑inch alloys, wrapped with tubeless tyres — 120/80‑12 at the front and 130/80‑12 at the rear. That combination gives the scooter a compact footprint, making it easier to weave through traffic or negotiate narrow lanes. The smaller wheels and higher‑profile tyres help soften the ride over potholes or rough stretches compared with low‑profile tyres: while it won’t ride like a large cruiser, the Storm feels more forgiving over broken or uneven roads than a typical performance‑oriented small scooter might.

Braking is handled via a 220 mm disc at the front and a 140 mm drum at the rear, with a Combined Braking System (CBS) to help distribute braking force — which means braking is stable and weighted rather than sudden, useful in city conditions or when a quick stop is needed. That front disc gives enough bite for confident stopping without fuss.

In terms of size, the Storm stretches about 1,985 mm in length, with a wheelbase of 1,365 mm — compact enough to feel agile but long enough to give reasonable stability. Seat height sits at about 780 mm, which tends to be manageable for most riders, making stops or mounting/dismounting easier in day‑to‑day use. The kerb weight is roughly 118 kg: light enough to manoeuvre easily in tight traffic, yet with enough heft to stay planted at moderate speeds or on uneven surfaces.

A 6.5‑litre fuel tank sits under the fuel cap. That size isn’t huge, but paired with the modest engine and decent fuel efficiency (official figures suggest around 38–40 km/l — real‑world numbers will vary with riding style), it offers a practical range for daily commuting, errands, or short-to-medium rides before needing a refill.

On the features front, Storm 125 doesn’t try to be flashy — it keeps things practical. You get a simple analogue + digital instrument cluster that shows speed, fuel level, trip info, etc. The headlight and tail/indicator lighting are LED (or partially LED, depending on the variant), which helps with visibility. There’s under‑seat storage, a passenger footrest, a low‑fuel warning lamp, and a USB charging port in some variants — helpful touches if you use the scooter for errands, short trips, or commuting with a phone/GPS in tow. Starting is achieved via kick as well as electric self‑start — handy for reliability or if the battery is low.

What this all adds up to in real life is a scooter that’s built to be practical, economical, and easy to live with — but with a twist of sportiness and style. The Storm 125 doesn’t try to pretend it’s a high‑power motorcycle; rather, it leans into being a user-friendly, agile, and fairly efficient daily rider with a more aggressive look and feel than a basic commuter. It is especially suited for those who navigate busy city streets, need easy parking and manoeuvrability, and want a scooter that’s simple to ride, easy to maintain, and functional for everyday needs — but with a bit more character than a plain‑Jane scooter.
