Powering the Aprilia Storm 125 is the same 125 cc engine which does duty on SR 125 Scooter. The engine pumps out 9.5 bhp of power and 9.9 Nm twisting force. The engine is, as usual, single cylinder and will be forced air-cooled. Moreover, the tyres in Storm 125 are a smaller 12-inch unit but wrapped with fat and knobby 120/80 tyre at the front and 130/80 section rubber at the rear (We don’t actually have any idea why so fat rubber are employed for a puny engine).
