The thing most people forget when comparing the two is the price difference. Ducati is about £23k in UK and Tuono around £17k, thats a huge difference. I rode them both and bought the Tuono and havn't looked back, love it!

[@captain_midlife]

Honestly if they were the same price I'd still buy the Tuono

[@Championedd]

You can get a well looked after used Ducati 1199R and have money to spare

[@Dougmcjock]

@@Championedd Anyone looking at these bikes wont want a sportbike. I sold my 1299 to buy a Tuono and is so much more comortable for daily use with similar performance without having to ring its neck to go fast. Brilliant bike!

[@metalted6128]

True, but it’s not a Ducati!! That in itself is worth the price!!

[@naftyloescher]

nothing can compete with the sound of an Aprilia V4...

[@alexbroder1587]

Aprilia the best.Use the difference in price to buy carbon fiber wheels and install them on tuono, and you will see how the handling and maneuverability of aprilia will change dramatically.

[@cagive24]

I definitely prefer the tuono over the Ducati streetfighter

[@ApriliaRacer14]

We’re going to elevate you within the Ape community for that endorsement.🤣😂😆

[@Championedd]

1000%

[@michaeltelemachus5112]

I just bought the Steetfighter V4s. The Touno is a great bike, but showing its age; it is due for a total redesign now, and buying a new one at this stage might not be such a good idea. It looks too much like an old race replica for me.

[@jhayb00g]

Lying through your teeth! Must be insane.

[@Chandrasekhification]

Thanks for making this video, I found it very informative. I just traded my much loved MT-10SP (2021) on a Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory (same year). I had been watching the market for a while and pounced on one when a good deal came up recently as it only cost me $6000 to change which I thought was fair. My initial impressions of the Tuono are that it is a superb motorcycle and I have no regrets buying it, I have read every review and watched every KZbin video I could lay my hands on before I bought it. I am no Valentino Rossi but enjoy a spirited ride, I think 175hp is more than enough, and as you say the Streetfighter makes its power up in the rev range. Arguably they are both superb bikes and I feel lucky to be riding bikes in this era.

[@AndysAirframeLab]

Ducati all the way. (I love my V2). Its just Ducati. All the negatives just don't matter because Ducati. And how is the Tuono even classed as naked ? Its the most fully clothed Naked ever. Saying that both amazing bikes. Love them both. Great video thank you.

[@paul_7612]

I traded in my 2018 MT 10 SP for a 2022 Tuono Factory after testing it. I also had the opportunity to ride a Streetfighter V4S but I actually feel the connection between your wrist and the rear tire very filtered by the electronics. (In fact the dealer told me that all of the first 4 gears has limited power) The Ducati it's a fantastic bike but for its price (the V4S here in Italy starts from 25.000 euros) you can get something way more usable for normal roads and save up some money. 200+ hp are becoming a "meta" for everyone but actually they are quite useless on normal riding conditions. The Tuono is a little more "difficult" to ride the first times than the MT10 and also the Streetfighter, but once you get used to it becomes a real weapon. My Ape has a Brembo RCS17 Corsa Corta master cylinder and a Stage 3 kit from GabroRacing wich include modified airbox, sprint filter air filter, velocity stack and Race ecu map. I still have the stock exhaust on but with the valve always open (here in Italy the police are getting so annoying with loud exhausts) I have absolutely no regrets about Aprilia and couldn't be happier with my choice.

[@Chris-Brauch]

How fast does it feel I. Comparison to the Streetfighter with the Gabro upgrades? I have stock Tuono factory

[@paul_7612]

​@@Chris-Brauch I recently mounted the akrapovic slip on exhaust and got it dynoed, it pulls 173 at rear wheel so around 190 at crank. Btw the Tuono has more mid rpm power and torque compared to the SF.

Hi Captain! Just found your stuff here. I'm US guy living in HK and riding a 1250 GS. I've watched a couple of your videos, really enjoy your prospective, your editing, and your overall videos. Keep up the good work. You've got a new subscriber! Cheers - Jim

[@alskypearson9716]

Cool mirrors. What kind are they?

[@davidebbs2797]

I'm here in Perth so like everything it takes us a little while to catch up, glad I finally found this comparison though mate. Awesome video and thanks for answering my question on where is the hazard light function on my E5 lol...

[@willbepro2]

yes you can customize the settings

[@straightuppaki]

Excellent video. Miss my 16’ v4 factory. Keep the content coming!

[@auroraborealis2393]

Enjoyed the video. Good real world comments. 👍

[@sagie5]

How wind protection at high speed between them

[@TallyHoTech]

I have actually never seen a Streetfighter or Tuono on the road in Melbourne

[@captain_midlife]

Yeah I mean both are pretty rare compared to most other bikes right, you certainly see less superbikes in general on the road

[@DukeOfTwist]

My mate & I have them in Bendigo, just got to leave the city to see them. lol

[@andyb2311]

Really loving the channel bro , have to say it was an easy pick for me when choosing my next bike , I went for the v2 Streetfighter purely for comfort and feel , I thought with my riding skill level the v4 would be crazy . but I really do love that v4 sound .

[@RollinThundervlogs]

Loving the content dude! What editing software do you use? The motion tracking/ blurring is on point 👌

[@captain_midlife]

Thanks man. I’m using Final Cut

[@michalcaganek8287]

I absolutely love Ducati motorcycles but have always been Aprilia fan and seriously the sound of Aprilia is so addictive, right after 5,500 rpm even with stock exhaust is just beautiful! I would never go back 😊

[@glennwr450]

Another excellent review cheers

[@soumyaprakashsahoo4120]

I think sfv4 has brembo stylema which is better than m50

[@captain_midlife]

I think you’re right. In real world use I don’t notice any difference. They are both really amazing

[@techniciansv8970]

Mudic reminds me of that one fortnine vid

[@codyjarrett9685]

Touono every day of the week

[@TroyTubeYou]

Cool video, but please use ALL the revs. Too much short shifting around. 🙂

[@sh60guy25]

I'm looking at the same two bikes. Leaning more towards the Tuono. The price of the Duck is a killer for me. Now I just need to decide on factory or non factory.

[@captain_midlife]

I’d just decide on which colour one you like the most cause I wouldn’t worry about the electronic suspension. And you can make a non factory look like a factory. Unless money isn’t a problem then just buy the factory I gurss

[@DevRSVR]

That is a number plate and a half!

[@Antmanmoto]

Factory exhaust on the Ducati, because aftermarket cost five grand! Sounds boss tho

[@Flip01]

Hi, I made it to the end no probs. Enjoying your videos going to subscribe 👍🔥

[@captain_midlife]

Thanks mate!

[@patrickhd34]

I got to the end....but then again, I have no life 🙂 I think the Tuono is probably value, but looks a bit lacking compared to the SF, and people at this end of the market go for looks too.

[@captain_midlife]

Lacking in what?

[@allnighterist]

Never heard someone pronounce Ducati the way you do, sounds kinda funny✌🏻😅

[@captain_midlife]

It’s me that sounds funny. Not the pronunciation 😂

[@DukeOfTwist]

Any chance of doing the Aprilia Tuono base model as more a Sports Tourer ;-)

[@captain_midlife]

For sure planning on it

[@DukeOfTwist]

@@captain_midlife Excellent, I look forward to your comparison as I picked the RR after riding both, but I do tourer more & have a couple of Tuono's for track days.

[@deankruse4491]

Keep a close eye on that oil level in the Tuono. My 2019 burns a ridiculous amount of oil. 🛢💨

[@captain_midlife]

I’ve been checking mine pretty hardcore and I haven’t lost anything yet. But I have heard that before

[@DukeOfTwist]

@@captain_midlife no issue with mine either.

[@bazookajoe2836]

I have the Ducati V4 S Street fighter and I have the prilya factory 2uno and I can tell you they are both amazing bikes but they Ducati is more track bike and the Aprilia is more Streetbike

[@francoisgodofe]

Your opinion interests me sir, the tuono v4 factory is more street in what way? Im curious please :). I rode the tuono V4 and really liked it. But I’m killing myself about deciding between the SFV2, SFV4 and TV4F 😅

[@faheemzia8983]

I’m a little confused about the fuel gage in your Aprilia. I’ve had three and none of them had a fuel gage.
