　　The Aprilia ETX 125 was a small-displacement entry-level off-road motorcycle that debuted in 1984 in Noale, Italy. The bike was part of the ETX series that comprised the larger ETX 350 model and the 600cc version that was never produced.

　　In 1996, the Italian motorcycle maker released the Aprilia ETX 125, an off-road motorcycle in its 13 consecutive years of production. It was the smallest of the family and was replaced by the Tuareg 125 model, which featured a larger fuel tank.

　　The 1996 model came with the same technical, visual, and performance package as previous models, delivering the same specifications without significant modifications.

　　In the aesthetic department, the motorcycle was fitted with standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a small front cowl with a small rectangular headlight, small side fairings, a one-piece dual seat, a luggage rack, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　Suspension-wise, the motorcycle packed a 35 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front end and a dual-sided swingarm tied to a single shock absorber on the rear, providing optimum suspension performance and handling.

　　In the performance department, the 1996 Aprilia ETX 125 had installed a 124cc two-stroke single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine at its core, delivering an output power of 18 hp with a peak force at 8,750 rpm.

　　As for the braking power, the bike's 21-inch front wheel was stopped by a 230 mm brake disc, while the 18-inch rear wheel was handled by a 125 mm drum braking unit, delivering optimum braking performance.
