Aprilia SXR 160 is built for better comfort
Aprilia SXR 160 can be considered as the successor to the older Kinetic Blaze and enters the Indian maxi scooter space right where the latter left off. Aprilia SXR 160 is built for better comfort and features than the SR 160 and promises to fill the niche that exists between a traditional Indian scooter and a proper maxi scooter.
