Engine and Chassis Parts for Aprilia RS 50 (1st Generation)
Aprilia used Minarelli engines for its 50cc geared mopeds: first the AM5, followed by the AM6. This means there is a wide range of parts available for maintenance and tuning:
- Original parts: supplied directly by the manufacturer Minarelli
- OEM-quality standard parts: replicas of original parts such as pistons, gasket sets, spark plugs, various bearings, brakes, tires and chain kits
- Sport and racing parts: 50cc, 70cc and 80cc cylinder kits, reinforced crankshafts, racing ignitions and tuning exhausts
We source high-quality parts from well-known brands such as Rieju, Motoforce, Stage6, KRM, STR8, 2Fast, Malossi and Airsal, as well as many other manufacturers.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can the versions be distinguished by model year?
Aprilia RS models from before 1999 have a single-sided rear swingarm. Their lines are somewhat less rounded and their wheels have three spokes. Versions from 1999 onward have five spokes.
Which engine and transmission does the RS 50 have?
Care is needed with the first model years up to 1995: although they have a Minarelli engine, the gearbox may have five gears instead of the six that became standard later (AM6).
How fast does a derestricted Aprilia RS go?
That depends on many factors. Depending on the parts used and the final drive gearing, speeds of 80 to 100 km/h are possible when properly tuned.
Which tire sizes are used?
The most common tire sizes can be found at the bottom of this page. Care is needed with the first model years, however, as they had a 16-inch front rim.
Does the carburetor need to be readjusted after upgrading preformance?
Yes, in most cases. A main jet set allows the carburetor settings to be adjusted after each modification.
What maintenance is required and at what intervals?
Aprilia recommends the following maintenance intervals:
- Transmission oil change every 6,000 km (75W90)
- Air filter cleaning every 3,000 km
- Spark plug replacement every 3,000 km
- Exhaust decarbonization every 9,000 km
Our recommendations: The chain should be cleaned and lubricated regularly, especially when used in extreme conditions. This should be done at least every 1,000 km. On an engine in its original condition, the piston should also be replaced between 10,000 and 12,000 km. If the engine is derestricted or tuned, the maintenance intervals should be shortened.
