Aprilia SR 150 Design
The Aprilia 150 scooter has been branded as the country’s first sport-scooterbike. Basically, this scooter is a step-thru, the kind popular in some South East Asian markets. The twin headlamps, sharply-styled panels and sporty decals infuse a touch of sportiness with the way this bike looks. The Aprilia SR150, without a doubt, is the sportiest-looking scooter in India. It definitely justifies the Sport-Scooter tag. Aprilia is offering the SR 150 in two colour themes- white with red and black body graphics and black with red and grey body graphics. Both colour options get black alloy wheels and a black-red seat. It could easily begin a new segment in the market.
