Aprilia is very constant, my 18 RSV4 RR with just a Slip-on made 184, after OFT Tune it made 200 even to the wheel on a DynoJet similar to JSH's. I also have a 2020 GSXR 1000. That made 192 peaks but between 4k to 12K it made more TQ. At one point between Aprilia VS GSXR, the GSXR made 23 WHP at roughly 7 to 8K.

Aprilia only claim 201 @ the crank, so if you subtract 12% =~24 hp, you get 176 @ rw- that of course being said, if you throw an exhaust system, a tune, a filter, and smog plates, you're gonna be getting north of 190 rwhp, and if you really have money for power, that's when you start asking mod shops if they can install pneumatic valves on your engine to add another 20-ish brake horsepower. If I had the money right now I would run out and buy all of it this instant, so in my humble opinion, this bike just comes down to money for me.

Cheers Jim, I was tempted by the Tuono but am still a sports bike bloke really - I won't have time to do the 600m run in & service so will probably take my track bike .... shame but I'll get it on track somewhere before the end of June for sure. I traded my 2013 APRC in for it, right now am waiting for the call it's ready to collect :-)

Simon Konetsky you lucky git. I recently sold my Tuono 1100 for a Daytona 675R which I'm really enjoying, but would love to have the new Tuono Factory next to the 675 in the garage. Can't justify the cash at the moment but there will come a time!

@TheJmebe7 жыл бұрын
As some bikes don't produce their peak power until they have completed several thousand miles, how do you allow for the post initial-run-in (i.e 500/600 miles +) differences? What I'm saying is that although it's a scientific test based on using the same dyno, the way the bike has been broken in (initial 500/600 miles and then first few thousand) can itself be the difference of ITRO 10-20 bhp on a modern litre bike I've read: the difference between an engine that is properly/fully run-in and one that is still 'tight' even after the initial run-in.
@thetriplex93657 жыл бұрын
That thing about the tightness is total bullshit IMO. Just a lame argument salesmen make when their vehicle doesn't get the MPG you want during a test or isn't as fast as you'd expect it to be... These bikes are broken in hard in the factory. The break in phase is manufacturers covering their ass and customers expecting it to be there. Watch BMW make the S1000RR and giving it the beans on a dyno in the factory. Those guys aren't nannying it...

@spoonman737 жыл бұрын
Technically I would think a "tight" engine, as in one who's rings have properly seated, would be better than a "loose" engine. I don't think that is a good way to describe it.
@TheJmebe7 жыл бұрын
spoonman73 the people I know, would use tight to describe an engine that isn't properly / fully broken in. I think the saying comes from things like valve clearances - it is worse to have these slightly tight than loose. 'Loose' is generally considered better than 'tight' wrt engines. I know what you mean though - if an engine is loose to the point that there is excessive blow-by for example, performance will be impacted.

As I said in my last comment on the Suzuki run, this is not surprising. Rsv4 eeks out a couple more ponys over the s1k. However torque is important too and the s1k is king in that respect. One thing is for sure, the Suzuki motor is hype. 😉

Sorry Tommy but build quality is not a BMW s1000rr 's strong point ! just ask any owner - including my brother who has a new 2016 model - try working on one and see how poor the overall quality is !!
