re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Anybody got delivery in Hyderabad? I booked on sep 3rd in Miyapur showroom. Dealer is saying they got only till 10 vehicles till now, an the yet to deliver to the customers bikes in August.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Same thing happened when I posted my Duke 390 Review.

Very true.

Expected from Quadros. There is a reason why they lost the Renault dealership.

I remember this happening when the Kawasaki Eliminator was launched. A friend had brought one from Pune (was not available in Goa) and lent it to me for a day. At least 10 people stopped me and asked the mileage. You should have seen the expression on their faces when I told the 80-85 kmpl.

A girl who used to work at my friends shop had a TVS Scooty. She upgraded to a Honda Dio. When I asked her how the bike was, the first thing she said was "You can't even carry a cylinder on it". Looks like the default method of carrying cylinders in Goa is on a gearless scooter.

I guess you are referring to the guys on Duke 200's. Have seen plenty of them near Chowgule college. They seem to be baffled why my Duke 125 (they can't differentiate between the 200 & 390) sounds different from theirs.


Enjoy your bike. Let's meet sometime.

Where are these dealers located?

Worst dealer. Sadly he is also the dealer for Fiat, Suzuki 2 wheelers, Mahindra 2 Wheelers, Yamaha and of course Vespa/Aprilla. At least for Suzuki and Vespa/Aprilla you have a choice of other dealers but he seems to have some pull in RTO and they won't let you register the bikes in Margao if not purchased from him.

Got it serviced yesterday. They got side stands in stock. I was called last week to get my side stand. Got it fitted yesterday during service.

I got asked about the mileage yesterday at the petrol station while filling up the bike. No one seems to believe someone can not care about the mileage.

Yeah the cylinder bit is the equivalent of Maruti's "Kitna deti hai."

No the Duke200 owners are the dio and activa owners who are now over 18 years.

Thanks! Yeah let us.

Arguably. I don't expect them to treat my bike like thats the only bike they have to service in their lifetime. But if I tell them a specific issue and they fix it, I'm happy. So far, I have not been disappointed. So, no complains.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

KV motor tech at Karaswada... Tivim
.. And veljee at Panjim and Mapusa....

BTW... Goans on xbhp...finally.... We should start a Goa chapter of an unofficial SR rider's group.... A friend and I have kinda tried doing it in the north. Assuming ul from the South with the mention of Chowgule.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Hi Guys,
My wife gifted me this wonderful bike. I had never driven any bike before So i have no idea how should I compare it with others but I just love the way bike runs. Smooth as anything. Picksup speed anytime I ask, reach 60 or 80 in no time. Looks I get for it are innumerable, but I am little embarrassed to reply milage question.
Recently I did some 150km in a day and I can't tell you what happened to my bottom. It pains like anything, may be I am not used to drive long drives. But bike obay you on any condition, breaking system is good. I was trapped in Alandi pune with lots of crowd walking, so I have to manage some 3 odd km in it. But bike's breaks are good with pickup with wonderful capabilities. And it just said no to give up even after travelling continuous for many km, as if it was asking me to bring it on. I am totally in love with it.
On my way back I was riding from left side of truck and one dio came from front of truck and had 90degree collision, dio had some breakage of front panel and front tyre protection. SR 150 was totally cool, plastic material used is much better when compared to likes of dio (no offense to anyone).
I will be riding more of km with some precautions and some better care with on bottoms.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Can someone please guide me about fullfaced helmet which I can carry below seat space.
Is there such helmet available? The one Aprilia branded they are selling at showroom at 3k goes in seat apace.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Yes 3k will get you a decent helmet. Get one from reputed brands outside the dealership.
Kranos helmets (S and M sizes) fit inside the seat space of a Yamaha Ray ZR, so you may want to check that as well.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

Hi Guys,
I may sound little stupid here.
Manual given with sr 150 says reserve of 1.2L, So what happens when bike reaches up to reserve's level, do we get some indicator or we have some lever to enable reserve? I haven't oberve any one of the situation.
If anyone is aware please enlight me.
Thank you

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences


Thanks for the info....they are asking 91823 and delivery will be in Feb 2017. they are supposed to open a new showroom near Lindon St PO in CIT road. I should wait till then.
They didn't told anything about how many free service or warranty ? Can you share anything on that.
And also how is mileage and long drive (>100 KMs) comfort.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

I have driven it for 500km till now
Mileage for me 30km/l (I just started riding bikes) , you can go up to 35 as I read from other people's posts.
I have done one >100km trip, bike runs like breze without any issue, engine sounds little odd sometimes but nothing to worry.
I wont say same for seat comfort, my tailbone is still paining, but it was my first long ride, may be people here can comment better.

re: Aprilia SR 150 Owners Reviews and Experiences

The Aprilia branded one is a Steelbird Air. You could go for a Vega too. Their cliff helmets are super light and fit in the boot.
