My NEW 2024 Aprilia Tuono Factory | First 1000 Mile Impressions

[@alexanderstrandqvist4063]

Some people complain that this is not a real naked bike. What baffles me is that no other manufacturer has copied this brilliant concept! What alot of naked bike owners (me included) complain about is the lack of wind protection , especially on the highway. Now having owned two Tuonos myself, despite being some years older than the one reviewed in this video, this bike is truly a marvel. Let alone the sound of that V4 is worth the money alone.

[@whatnever]

so you would say its not a torture to ride it at the highway while at the same time allowing more wind than a sportsbike?

[@davidmallia628]

I would say it is a sports bike with a more relaxed riding position, with flat handle bars. But, is not the Kawasaki Ninja SX not of the same ilk!??

[@labrador3473]

if you ask any aprilia employee in Noale, Is this naked? They say, this is not naked, this is tuono

[@tranceending5914]

The thing about Tuono V4’s is, if you can’t keep up with your mates, you can’t blame the bike😊

[@djefferson02]

If you can't afford, don't buy

[@Carvetii]

​@@daithimurphy1832 not me nut my mate he bought a 2020 one brand new and it was constantly in the dealers for the first 7 month with electrical issues . He finally with the finance company got the bike rejected as it was deemed not up to standard for a new bike after Inspection. Have heard a few issues with them from other people I know that had them at bike meets up here in Cumbria. It really put me off getting one after doing research on them and asking around

As a current owner of a BMW S1000R (2021), I have been convincing myself of late I do not need 165bhp for the road and planning to head back to a middleweight (110/120bhp).....and then you went and posted this video...always fancied a Tuono Factory, and now I cannot wait to test ride one, and that white & gold livery...wow!

[@valebliz]

As a Superduke owner, I think you’re right though. I’m a big lad like Lamb Chop but if I was somewhat shorter and leaner I think I would have more fun on something like a street 765 than a super naked, with way more cash in the bank too.

[@512460]

Same as a bmw s1000r gen2 owner. Maybe something like a 765 or Mt09 sp however my problem is I can't get rid of my s1k for any of these as it'll be an injustice on my part I'd have to purchase one as a second bike

@@512460 I went from a 765 RS to the S1000R. Recon if I change out the BMW will have to be for something different...rather taken with the XSR900GP in black & grey, Monster SP or Streetfighter V2 (but the V2 seems very expensive and way lacking in spec when compared to my BMW)

Thanks a lot and no worries. More vids to come 👍

[@749corsa]

I also took delivery on my new Tuono V4 1100 about a month ago. I second everything you say. My only "frustration" is that I've always enjoyed full-throttle redlining various high-revving bikes i've owned (all 130hp or less). With the Tuono, full-throttle in second gear you're bumping the wheelie control rhroughout 😅, and full-throttle 3rd gear, you're over 100mph with lots of revs to go. So on public roads i find i have to shift at 8,000 rpms usually to keep my license in tact. I know I'm not going to get a lot of sympathy here, but I actually think it would be a more fun street bike at 900cc, so you could really ring its neck and hear that amazing sound at full glory. That said, I absolutely love it, and it has loads of power from 5,000 - 8,000 rpms.

[@gregtufnall6276]

All totally fair and good observations! Lots of self control definitely needed with this bike but glad you still love it 👍

I’ve owned two Tuono Factory models since 2016 and agree with what you said in regard to epic sound and lack of vibes, the v4 is a pretty amazing engine.

TRW levers all the way! Look subtle but great quality

[@Gedv4Tuono]

Greg, couldn’t agree more. I do wonder if in the V4 Tuono we have in many ways reached ‘peak bike’? Obviously it’s subjective and there are other great bikes, but there’s just something really ‘right’ about it! You can get faster bikes - but realistically it’s ‘too’ fast for the road. You can get lighter bikes - but honestly its about perfect to provide a supple ride with the suspension. You can probably get ‘faster’ handling bikes - but I’ve not ridden anything that feels as dialled-in as that Tuono/RSV4 front end. And the sound and feeling from the engine are hard to convey to anyone who’s not ridden one. I’m never selling mine 😂. (Partly because my wife loves it too and won’t let me)

Great video Greg! I feel exactly the same with my 2024 RSV4 Factory they really are amazing machines. I done a 200 mile round trip in a day without any comfort issues. Fuel wise I generally reset the trip and refuel at 100 miles just to be safe as I have no gauge only a warning light. I’ve found It’s also possible to change suspension from A1 - M3 on the fly using the up and down cursor whilst on T2 display screen. Cheers Jake.

I could listen to that idling for hours! Paint pops in the sun. Absolutely gorgeous machine. Characteristics that don't get in the way but you can learn to work with is what makes relationships with machines special - they need some thought and consideration from the rider. Whereas 'perfect' machines get very boring very quickly as it requires no real skill or consideration. I got rid of an S1000RR for this reason - a marvel of engineering, but once I'd got over the initial rush, I found rides more like a very dangerous version of a video game!

I’m still running my old 2010 VFR1200F, 37,000 miles (13k of them from me), promised myself to try and make it to 50k before considering an upgrade but the standard Tuono (non factory) really interests me. The engine character and sound are very similar to mine but it’s about 150 pounds lighter and the suspension is better, the gadgets are nice too. The only thing that puts me off is the service intervals. The Honda has been very low maintenance.

[@gregtufnall6276]

Yeah good point re the service intervals. They’re every 6K officially but I think it’s well worth dropping the oil out every 3K (which is an easy job - probably 45 mins max given the access is right there). Definitely a consideration but the standard Tuono will be great

Fantastic looking and sounding bike, every time I sit on one at a show l think how tiny it is and how it fits me perfectly. As for the quickshifter, they were always meant to be used when on the power to save a bit of time when hard on it. I know some manufacturers have managed to program their shifters to enable smooth up and down changes at low speeds and throttle openings, but to me that's a lazy shifter, not a quick shifter, just use the clutch when pootling. Or go the whole way and get one of the the new electronic clutch options.

[@gregtufnall6276]

Quite agreed 👍

[@charlesgutscher1923]

Ya know I really shopped around. I looked at the 1390 Dukes, The tuono factory, the M1000R comp, and the Streetfighter V4S. And I chose the Streetfighter personally. The Duke was fun but, not what I wanted in the handling department I just didn't bode well with it. The M was great but sooo buzzy to ride and really didn't feel special to me. I'll say this. I didn't vibe with the Tuono personally, the weight and the ergos weren't for me. But you're right, nothing on earth sounds like that Aprilia V4. Nothing. I love my V4S, it fist the bill perfectly for me. And with the akrapovic exhaust it sounds fantastic. But the ape V4 is just a tier above everything with the way it sounds. And the sound alone and cruise control almost won me over. Lol

There’s simply no denying facts. This was the case years ago when the 3 Italian kings ruled the roads: Guzzi’s Le Mans, Laverda’s Jota & Ducati’s 900SS. Tell me I’m wrong.

You’re 100% no wrong 😊👍

[@gregtufnall6276]

Not wrong even!!

[@ghowells5433]

Sat on a WhatsApp part ex my triumph street triple rs for one after your video has been the final push I needed. Expensive video 😂

[@gregtufnall6276]

Sorry about that!!! 😂

[@fyorbane]

That's how a V4 should sound. Beautiful. The best sound in biking.

[@gregtufnall6276]

Thanks a lot 👍👍

[@martynhurst3609]

Stunning

[@Birky_41]

Love mine, got the same version as yours with 25,000 miles now

[@stephenfrench2966]

Best bike I've ridden but would be very difficult to keep your licence. The power and sound is addictive. It pulls your arms off aswell

[@gregtufnall6276]

Plenty of self control needed that’s for sure!! 😂

[@headrace4863]

…congratulations mate. Superb. Enjoy!!

[@gregtufnall6276]

Thanks a lot! 👍👍

I notice the BMW runs the brake lines from the master to left and right calibers direct and the Tuono has a piggy back off the right calliper to Left. The BMW is beautifully set up, even in this minor detail.

[@fredflintstone1375]

Like a person who, when they are eating say Mmmmmm over and over, I can hear it in your voice! I have the same, at 69 years of age and love it. They are far more comfortable than many many think and they tour very well too with a H&B rear plate. A tip here Gregorio - in T2 screen, you can actively change the ASC modes - ON THE FLY! This works within any of the modes (Tour, Sport, User) Just use your up or down buttons on the left hand controls. Cheers also, No mirrors? What other mods?

[@gregtufnall6276]

Thanks for the tip Fred - I sort of realised you could do that but appreciate the advice. More mods to come in time yes. Just saving up a bit first 😂. Cheers

Congratulations Greg, top bike

Great vid, this is one of my fav bikes I think.

[@benkelly2190]

What a cracking bike mate. Now where’s my shotie!

[@nomdeploom5707]

Had to get the headphone monitors on for the eargasms on this one. The low speed stuff comes over really well on the vid.

[@gregtufnall6276]

Ha ha! Thanks a lot 😂

[@clownworld-honk410]

Interesting choice. I prefer the BMW S1000R but that's based on purely hypotheticals. Only ridden the S1000RR so it's assessed on that experience.

[@AdamT1983]

R is nothing like the RR. Its dull

[@clownworld-honk410]

@@AdamT1983 dull.. I think that's a stretch! Thanks for replying 🙂

[@helgejohan3604]

[@davidtomich9393]

I have the 2021 and it’s absolutely amazing. The description of the quick shifter at low speeds is spot on and I too use the clutch around town. But when you use the throttle, the quick shifter is buttery smooth! I still have the stock can and the sound is amazing. Only thing I’ll do is Gabro upmap it now that it’s out of warranty. I’d be curious to know if you’ve already done it, or if you are planning to?

[@gregtufnall6276]

Hi David, thanks for your message! In answer, I have the Akra map installed and in my opinion, it’s worked really well and the fuelling is nice. Let me know how you get on once you’ve up-mapped yours. Cheers

No better bike on the road 👏👍

Good vid Gregorio, I feel your love for the bike - that’s how I am about my Speed Triple.

[@gregtufnall6276]

Thanks James. Great to hear you love your Speed Triple - fantastic bike too that’s for sure

[@jthemighty690r]

Rizoma levers are a great addition Greg, made the front braking so smooth

[@conalloreilly3543]

Hey Greg. Great bike and video mate. Love the Tuono. Always torn between it and the ktm! C 😀

[@gregtufnall6276]

Thanks a lot! Both great bikes that’s for sure

[@shaunperry2024]

Just a small thing and it may be the camera that's making it look worse than it is, but the clutch and brake levers look really flat. Personal preference, but the more natural position for your hands, is to have them rotated to around 20 past. Great vid and lovely bike, Greg.

[@InvisibleJiuJitsu]

completely dependent on individual proportions. He doesnt look to be moving his forearm or wrist to reach the levers so i'd say they're probably set just fine for him

[@gregtufnall6276]

@@InvisibleJiuJitsuyes indeed, they are ideal for me but good spots anyway 😂

[@raybaker1866]

What about the seating position and the foot peg height. Are your legs cramped. I come from an 890 Duke as well and it was very comfy. I’m 6’2”. Thanks.

[@gregtufnall6276]

Hi Ray, legs are more cramped on the Tuono versus the 890 I’d say but not by a massive amount. I’m just over 6ft 👍
