This is a naked, entry level commuter motorcycle that is already on sale in Singapore and New Zealand, and is being showcased in India to gauge dealer response.

Aprilia STX 150 is available in traditional colors of the Italian manufacturer that include black, white and red. It gets a wide and comfortable two seater seat, clip on handle bars, a sharp headlamp and chiseled fuel tank.

Aprilia STX 150 is powered by a 149cc, four stroke, twin valve, SOHC, air cooled engine mated to a 5 speed transmission allowing for better performance both where uphill roads and highway riding is concerned.
