Accessories of the Aprilia RS 457 cost a whopping ₹ 1,60,042. Now we understand that not all of you would buy all the accessories, but the sheer combined expense of the accessories made us think about compiling a list of all the cool bikes you could buy for just the price of accessories for the Italian bike . Here is that list where we present 5 bikes that you can buy at the price of the Aprilia RS 457 accessories.
Bajaj recently updated the Pulsar N250, making it a compelling value proposition at 1.5 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). This 24.1 bhp bike is a great all rounder in Bajaj's Pulsar lineup and now features a USD fork, digital instrument cluster, Bluetooth connectivity, and connected features like navigation and call alerts. It also has ABS and traction control, enhancing its safety net. The Pulsar N250 could be a great secondary 250cc option alongside the Aprilia RS 457, perfect for daily city commutes. It even comes in red and black, matching the Aprilia's colour scheme.
Starting at ₹ 1.49 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), the Royal Enfield Hunter 350 is the brand's entry-level bike. This motorcycle comes with the J series engine, making 20 bhp and 27 Nm. The Hunter 350 offers a nice compact frame, delivering the Royal Enfield ownership experience in a roadster format. It also has tripper navigation. With a neutral seating posture, the bike excels at daily city commutes and can keep up with highway speeds. This well-rounded machine could balance out the sporty nature of the Aprilia RS 457, serving as a perfect choice for leisurely rides.
The Yamaha Aerox is the most powerful scooter Yamaha offers, starting at ₹ 1.49 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). It recently gained a new variant with a keyless fob. This scooter is a perfect complement for Aprilia RS 457 owners who naturally gravitate towards performance. Its 155cc liquid-cooled engine taken from the R15 produces 15 bhp and 13 Nm. The scooter even has traction control! The Yamaha Aerox delivers a perfect blend of performance and practicality. While the rear suspension might be a touch stiff, it's bound to be more comfortable than the Aprilia RS 457. Additionally, the 24.5-litre underseat storage makes it a practical and sporty option. Owning both the Aerox and the RS 457 creates a well-rounded two-bike garage to suit all your riding needs and practicality.
Given its 150 mm ground clearance, the Aprilia RS457 isn't recommended for off-road riding. However, the Hero Xpulse, starting at ₹ 1.46 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), is an excellent choice for off-road adventures. An even better option is the Hero Xpulse 4V Pro, available at ₹ 1.53 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). This motorcycle has even longer travel suspension, making off-roading a breeze. Its air/oil-cooled engine produces 19 bhp and 17 Nm. The Pro variant offers a significant 270 mm of ground clearance, ideal for tackling serious off-road terrain. While the Aprilia might excel on the highway, the Xpulse will be your trusty companion when the road gets rough.
The Aprilia RS 457 isn't built for pillion comfort, but there are times you need to carry a passenger comfortably, whether for errands or daily commutes. The TVS Apache RTR 200 4V excels in this area. Priced at ₹ 1.42 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), this motorcycle is one of the most comfortable bikes for a pillion rider. The Apache RTR 200 4V's engine is no slouch either, producing 20 bhp and 17 Nm. It handles well despite featuring a telescopic suspension and double cradle frame, which are typical in this class.
Last but not least on this list is the Ather Rizta Z 3.7 kWh variant. Priced at ₹ 1.44 lakh(ex-showroom, Bengaluru), it has an IDC range of 160 km, making it a prime choice for practicality. The Ather Rizta is perfectly targeted towards everyday use cases. It features a spacious 33-litre underseat storage compartment with smart features that enhance user-friendliness. Additionally, the low seat height of 770mm and the industry-leading 900mm seat length contribute to rider comfort. Ather doesn't forget practicality either, incorporating a backrest, a flat footboard, and a comprehensive instrument cluster with well-integrated connected features. While the scooter has a top speed of 80 kmph, it charges to 80% in just 4.3 hours. This makes the Ather Rizta a fantastic electric scooter alternative if you care for the environment.
