The Aprilia MX 50 is the Aprilia moped in the series and is very reminiscent of the sisters with the larger engine size. The moped was produced from 1976 to 1982 . It was very simple and cheap when compared with current bikes. In fact the engine was an air-cooled Minarelli (the first replicas for private individuals however have the Sachs ) and the drum brake system. The appearance was typical of those times , with an oval tank, with a very padded and long saddle.
