Aprilia is joining the fray with the RS4 125-cc thumper. A sad farewell to the RS125 two-smoker.

Saw that too, sadly dont think it will have the appeal of the 2 stroker, but still a looker!

Street legal though, and it may woo some of their center city customers who would otherwise buy a scooter

Be a shame to see a bunch of squared off rear tires parked at the espresso bar.

Just read earlier that WSBK is doing a race series similar to the Red Bull Rookie Cup, and they will be using spec 250's.

With the (relatively) large price of the Moriwaki's, it makes sense that either Kawi or now Honda would be the machine supplier.
