Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory is still the super naked to beat | MCN review

[@eugeniocolombo8916]

Jesus, Michael is a national treasure. You Brits should be very, very proud of him. He is really able to put on words the feeling when riding a new motorcycle. No other journalist on KZbin comes close to him in that, in my opinion.

The master journo speaks. A class piece full of insight experience and wisdom. A must have review. Great stuff Michael. Of course I own a Tuono Factory. It's a MY 2020 and it is simply a stunning machine. As Neevsey points out it is how the power is delivered to the road and how the rider is made to feel about his/her ride. A lot of effort distilled into just 10 mins of video - and the quality shows throughout.

Have had my Tuono V4 Factory 21 for about a month now - coming from a Ducati Supersport S. The Tuono just feels right: handling, brakes, quickshifter, tech - all spot on I'd say. Took me about five days of "deliberating" and reading reviews (thanks Mr Neeves) before I forked out the cash - best impulsive purchase I've ever made. I'm not heading to a track any time soon and it might be a bit unnecessary for a 6-mile commute a few times a week and twisty roads at the weekends - but bloody hell, it puts a smile on my face everytime!

[@axist2389]

I have a supersport. What factors made you make the jump to the new bike? Is it more upright riding? Thanks

[@Faithinthedock]

Astonishing when you think the frame is now 12 years old!! They really hit the jackpot with the 2009 RSV4 frame and somehow they have added all the necessary stuff to make the Tuono a class winner for so long. This must be to Aprilia what the Elise was to Lotus. A masterstroke!

Having owned an older Speed Triple, a KTM Super Duke R, and a Street Triple 765 RS, I can attest that the Tuono is the bike to beat! The power delivery, riding position, and overall FEEL of the bike is unmatched. Now I get it Neevesy!

[@nickcardillo5021]

Another great review from Mr Neeves. My motorcycle purchases have all been heavily influenced by his reviews. A yellow Ducati Streetfighter 848 was my 'gateway' bike five years ago. It got me hooked on Italian naked bikes, and motorcycling in general. It was followed by a 2016 Aprilia Tuono 1100 RR which took me all over the country. The tractable V4 conquered highways, twisties and racetracks with nonchalance. To this day I think the Tuono is the best road bike ever made. I'm currently on a black 2009 Ducati Streetfighter 1098S. Although it has been surpassed by modern supernakeds, the thumping V-twin and rattling dry clutch could wake the dead. It is irreplaceable.

[@Ctaff63]

Took your advice . Went on demo on 2021 Tuono this morning. 🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿💥💥💥🍾🍾🍾😂😂😂😊😊😊👍👍👍. Hallelujah! Why would you not buy one of these. Why haven’t I ? I am a very seasoned biker not much I haven’t done to be honest. Have taken few demos lately , something more upright, comfy , but has to have the Go. Plenty time to get comfy shaftdrive 😉. First 50 meters riding this bike I noticed the rutted tarmac coming up , Gone Dealt with - Next? Mmmm, I’m in sport mode too . Quick flick in to touring and yes immediately feel a calm in bike, suspension chills out. About 3 rd roundabout I try brakes , Oh lovely,proper proper progressive stopping power. Out in the hills now some space to go little 😳😂. What a motor, I mean it’s not Total surprise, as from the moment you thumb the starter you are in No doubt that this is a serious machine. But when it opens up ,wow what a thing , the quick shifter and blipped / knife through butter livery. So addictive. Been clutching between 1st/ 2nd - using shifter above say 40 , lovely 😊. Been out awhile now so head back. Getting little cheeky with the go now ,gets ,feels even better, the shifts are slicker ,tyres are warmer , traction control just keeps sticky rear in check leaving roundabout bit eagerly ,, slight slide, probably got on dusty bit,it has been silly hot this last week or more. Not a problem. Leave braking really late next roundabout as it’s quiet , 😋. For last few miles I take it sensible,whatever that is, I look at numbers 26,28,31 all mph but I’m in 5th , 5th? Doesn’t want to be there but it does . Nuff said. To say I’m impressed is def understatement. What a machine. Everything feels like it has been refined to best it can be. I truly felt this from moment I let out clutch and left the shop. Comfortable too, what a bonus. A machine made and fitted with the best components,But it’s more than that it really is. You really become the experience. I’m buying . Can’t wait to get it. 💥💥💥🕺🏿🕺🏿🕺🏿😂😂😂😊😊😊👍👍👍🍾🍾🍾

[@yannberger]

well, then I can do it for you, it is absolutely great, the sachs suspensions are much better than I could imagine and was a surprise, but I knew I had an ohlins fg43 waiting in the dust, so I installed it (had to get a top yoke cnc machined, no big deal) and the bike became from great to phenomenal and guess what, not even need to change the rear shock as the front is so brilliant now. Then you got to play with wheels, I indeed started with a set of forged marchesinis, was much better than stock and of course the bike more responsive, then I tried a set of bst wheels and the bike got transformed to another totally different dimension. Best bike on earth mode! So to sum it up shortly, buy a Tuono RR, get yourself a proper ohlins race fork on used market and a set of carb' wheels and surely you'll get close or upper a factory price but with such a way way way better bike it'd blow your mind and will put an insane smile on your face each time you try it.

Last week I rode the 2021 1200RS and 2021 Tuono V4. For me, the Triumph has regain its crown as the best supernaked. It makes the Tuono feel a generation old which it is. Don't get me wrong, the Aprilia is still brilliant but Triumph has raised the bar. Engine wise the V4 continues to be the most amazing engine I have ever ridden, eve if the new 1160 triple engine is stronger

I own a 17 S1000R (have done since it was new - 47500km - loved it) and looking to update. My local BMW/Aprilia/Triumph dealer called to tell me when the Aprilia Tuono 1100 would be arriving to line up test rides of the TF and SpT, and was a little curious why I was not seeking a test ride of the new s1000r. My perspective - it is unattractive and it sounds bland unless you are really into it, and they are the negatives of my current bike, and I want my next bike to sound good and look better. The Tuono now looks great, and the sound has always been superb. Other two to test will be the SFv4 and the Super Duke 3 (although not enamoured with its looks it certainly has a sound track to covet)

The Aprilia Tuono, Truly is the greatest motorcycle …

[@tripnut5702]

I had a 2020 Tuono V4 Factory and because it seemed like they had read my wish list I part exed it for a 2022, switches are now easy to operate with gloves and they did away with the stupid little joystick, sorted the headlights etc. Now for the rub: they also made the new model E5, when I picked it up from the dealer I had to go into London which was a disaster because the bike overheated at every set of traffic lights. Seems like the bike now runs so lean that the radiator isn't big enough to keep the heat in check. I had an Akrapovič pipe on the old model and it ran perfectly but was too noisy to go on most tracks in the UK so I didn't spec it for this bike but it looks like the only way to sort the overheating once and for all is to fit the Akrapovič and the race ECU again making it unsuitable for the track. The 2022 bike also has a smaller tank which is also a huge mistake, because the bike uses more fuel that a Panigale V4!! Aprilia gives with one hand and takes away with another. Update: Engine light is on and the shop - On Yer Bike in Bucks says it's nothing and I should keep riding it. Shame that a light on the dash would mean that it wouldn't pass an MOT. Not the best service from a bike shop!

considering Factory Tuono 1100 and have the option to by 2021 or a 2020 for about 20% discout. I the updates worth the extra

[@Yevvy0000]

I wonder how does Tuono V4 Factory compare to 890 duke R in terms of handling and road performance?

[@ev_an_8898]

Tuono = the guided missile

[@tibbsazoid]

I'd love to hear the MCN opinion on how the two newer 2022 MT10 models match up to the top dog Tuonos.

[@brucekendall52]

Thats telling it like it is.Thanks.

[@ridewithjamal3356]

Would you say that this sounds better than an mt10 with full exhaust? I am debating between an mt10 or a Tuono factory v4. Sound is on top of my list. What would y’all suggest?

[@kennigt]

Tuono V4 is the best bike on the planet.

[@rolandoresurreccion8216]

dont hate but im tossing between the 660 Toune or 1100 Touno.. not a track person mainly weekends on the roads. cant decide.

8:27. Man, Neevsy doesn’t like the KTM. I own the 2020, it’s a great bike. The version 3.0 is greatly refined and more sport bike focused than super moto. Looks are subjective of course, I think it looks sharp and aggressive, like a stealth fighter jet. I can’t take my eye off of it in the garage. The Tuono is a great bike I’m sure too. Never ridden one.

[@arnofrom9350]

Thanks for the great explanation. You mentioned that tall riders would also fit quite well. I’m 1.92 m(6 feet 3). Would this be a bike to consider over the ktm 1290 sdr riding position wise? Thanks in advance for your feedback and keep up the great work!

[@street_monkey991]

Hope u got one! I know it’s very late but i just got a tuono a month ago and I did some milleage with it and yet, I feel comfortable on it (I’m 1,89 m // 6 feet 2)

[@festol1]

07:30 No mention of Suzuki S1000? Why?

[@nigelfisher3756]

Because the Suzuki GSX-S1000 is good value but not in the same league as the Tuono.

[@lensoprezole5322]

Fabio : GSX S1000 is the cheapest bike of the "1000cc" naked bike category. It cannot even come close to the Tuono V4. Suzuki = cheap products with old technology. Aprilia = Good quality and high tech. Suzuki sales strategy is to aim the customers that have a small budget. Italian manufacturers strategy is to aim customers that have a lot of money to spend.

[@JoUtan01]

because he does not want to embarass suzuki S1000 owners !
