APRILIA RSA 125 2009 RACE FAIRINGS & BODYWORK
Aprilia RSA 125 (2009) Race Fairings & Bodywork
Top Description: Race fairings for the 2009 Aprilia RSA 125 are highly specialized, factory-derived components designed for the ultimate performance in the 125cc Grand Prix class. The RSA (Aprilia Special Racing) platform features an ultra-light, highly evolved chassis, demanding fairings with zero-compromise aerodynamics, structural stiffness, and minimal mass. Available in race-grade composites including Fiberglass (GRP/FRP) reinforced with Kevlar-Carbon (K-K), and pure Carbon Fibre (CFRP), these kits adhere to strict FIM regulations.

RSA 125 (2009) - Dedicated Factory Racer
The RSA 125 is the pinnacle of Aprilia's two-stroke 125cc Grand Prix effort. The fairings are designed to fit the specific, dedicated race frame (not the road-going RS 125 chassis) and utilize the most advanced aerodynamic knowledge of the era.
1. Material Selection for Ultimate Performance:
| Material Type | Core Advantage | Specific Benefit for RSA 125 GP Racing |
| GRP (Fiberglass) with K-K Reinforcement | Durability and Safety Compliance. | High-quality fiberglass is reinforced with Carbon and Kevlar at attachment points and high-stress zones. This is vital for resilience and ensuring the safety-mandated sealed belly pan remains intact. |
| Kevlar-Carbon (K-K) | Puncture Resistance and Rigidity. | Often chosen for the lower fairing and seat unit to provide maximum stiffness and resistance to tears/punctures without the high cost of full carbon. |
| CFRP (Full Carbon Fibre) | Absolute Minimum Weight. | The material used by factory teams for crucial components like the self-supporting seat unit and upper fairing, pushing the bike to the absolute minimum weight limit. |
2. Design Specifics for GP Racing Aerodynamics:
The 2009 RSA bodywork is completely functional, prioritizing speed and rapid serviceability.
-
Ultra-Narrow Profile: The fairings are exceptionally slim and tightly packaged around the chassis and engine, minimizing the frontal area and reducing aerodynamic drag. The smooth, minimalist nose cone is optimized for the rider's tucked position.
-
Integrated Exhaust Clearance: The lower fairing (belly pan) is precisely shaped to tightly enclose the custom factory race expansion chambers while forming the required single, sealed fluid containment pan.
-
Self-Supporting Seat Unit: The race seat for the RSA is often a self-supporting unit (especially in Carbon Fibre), designed for extreme lightness and rigidity, attaching directly to the minimalist rear frame. It includes a specific cutout/space for the rear shock reservoir or other GP-specific components.
-
Serviceability: The bodywork is designed for rapid maintenance. It is engineered for use with quick-release fasteners (such as Dzus clips) to allow mechanics instant access to the highly-tuned engine for carburetor adjustments and tuning during pit stops or training sessions.
The fairings are designed for use with quick-release fasteners to simplify on-track assembly and disassembly. However, drilling and the quick-release fasteners themselves are not included in the kit and must be ordered separately.
