Aprilia RS 457 Ownership Review
It is the best choice for a budget super sport bike and looks aggressive with a lot of torque and power. The twin cylinder engine is very tractable and the overall ride experience is fun! Definitely a head turner. The bike is very smooth and the engine is very responsive. The posture is a bit demanding so would avoid in traffic jams and long rides. The power is just amazing, a twist of the throttle and before you know it you are reaching triple digit speeds. This is a pure red bike and would only suggest it to those who are genuinely in need of the power upgrade and will ride the bike the way it is meant to. For beginners and clout chasers would definitely recommend to stay away from this bike.

A love that few can posses mileage is absolutely fantastic
I just want people to know upfront that the 30+kmpl mileage is absolutely fantastic. In real life, R3 gives about 18-20kmpl in the city and 25kmpl on the highways. If you are buying an R3 with mileage in mind, when you're wired in ways, it may cause short circuits. I have owned one since Feb of 2020, probably the last one in India at the time, and can vouch for the excellence of the machine that it is. Especially in cruising. The ergonomics is so comfy. It’s mainly a tourer really, but can be just as good a daily go-to riding vehicle. Anyone who owns a showroom owned R3 can vouch that it’s the greatest sub 500cc bike in the Indian market, and by far at that when wholistic consideration is a thing.
