The Aprilia Tuareg was a motorcycle produced by the Italian maker from 1985 to 1994 when it was replaced by the Aprilia Pegaso. The bike was sold with a 50cc and 125cc two-stroke engine and a 350cc and 600cc four-stroke power unit.
In 1988, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia Tuareg 125 Wind, a slightly different motorcycle than the standard model, packing the same performance with several visual modifications.
Compared to the Rally model, the Tuareg 125 Wing packed a half fairing with a dual round headlight system, a small windscreen, and a low-mounted front mudguard instead of the high-mounted one of the Tuareg 125.
The bike was built around a steel frame that housed the suspension system, comprised of a telescopic fork on the front end and a single shock absorber on the rear, delivering optimum suspension performance and handling capabilities.
As for the braking power, the bike's wire-spoke wheels were fitted with a single brake disc on the front, engaged by a hydraulic caliper and a drum braking unit on the rear, providing optimum stopping power.
In the performance department, the 1988 Aprilia Tuareg 125 Wind had its heartbeat set by a 124cc two-stroke liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine that delivered 25 hp with a peak force at 9,000 rpm.
All 25 hp were sent to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual gearbox and a final chain drive, launching the motorcycle to a maximum speed of 130 kph (81 mph).
