About the Aprilia SXR 160

Overview

The Aprilia SXR 160 is a scooter from Aprilia. It was launched in 2020 and has since been discontinued (production ended around 2026). Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. Scooters are made for easy city riding: automatic, step-through and usually with storage under the seat. With a 160 cc engine it sits in the larger, 150 cc-plus scooter class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 160 cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine that makes 10.94 bhp at 7,200 rpm and 12.13 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. Its stroke is longer than its bore (58 mm x 60.6 mm), a long-stroke layout that generally favours low-down pulling power. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 86 PS per tonne; by that measure, there is enough go for confident city riding and relaxed highway cruising. The claimed top speed is 93 km/h. It has both electric and kick start.

Gearbox

It uses an automatic (CVT) transmission, so there are no gears or clutch to work — you twist the throttle and go.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

It is built around an underbone frame. Suspension is by telescopic forks at the front and hydraulic shock absorber with five position adjustable at the rear. Braking is by a disc at the front and a drum at the rear, with single-channel ABS. Single-channel ABS works on the front wheel, which does most of the stopping. It rides on 12-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres, 120/70-12 at both ends.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 775 mm off the ground, which is low and makes it easy to put your feet down. It weighs 129 kg ready to ride. Ground clearance is 160 mm — enough for most speed breakers. It is 1,963 mm long, with 1,361 mm between the axles. Its 7 L fuel tank and claimed mileage of 46.21 kmpl work out to roughly 323 km per tankful on paper; real-world range is usually lower.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes a digital instrument console, an LED headlamp, USB charging port, distance-to-empty readout, real-time mileage indicator and service due indicator. Safety equipment includes low fuel indicator and malfunction indicator.

Owning one

The manufacturer's warranty is 5 years or 60,000 km. For the Aprilia SXR 160, Mechiee offers a fixed ₹899 doorstep service.

Who it suits

It is best suited to city errands and riders who would rather not shift gears. Its low seat also makes it approachable for shorter and newer riders.

Maintaining the Aprilia SXR 160

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc and Drum brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • CVT belt & variator

    Automatic scooters transmit power through a belt and variator. Listen for slipping or judder, and have them inspected as part of regular servicing.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 120/70-12 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as 5A 12V. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Aprilia SXR 160 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
OHC / SOHC / DOHC
How the engine's valves are operated. OHC and SOHC mean one overhead camshaft; DOHC means two, which usually allows higher revs and more power from the same size.
Air cooling
The engine is cooled by air flowing over its fins. It is simpler and needs no coolant, which keeps upkeep straightforward.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
