*Is there a better sound out there?*

[@markkhoury5251]

Schaaf no

[@MLambdaman]

You could have used the "track mode" display (keep selection-stick pushed to the right for 3 ou 4 seconds to change the display), as it hides speed (well, it still shows it but in very little font). Good video, good fun !

[@Schaaf]

great advice! Maybe next year I'll have another go!

[@ragemode5097]

I thought you liked the Triumph Triple Sound better? Don’t tell me my Speedy doesn’t pleasure your ears anymore... but the Tuono is my second favorite bike, so no hard feelings

This is my kind of video and the way I like to ride! Your are an example of what riding fast in public roads is. No stupidity, no speeding in populated areas, slowing down where there a chance somebody can cross, or passing bycicles, saluting other riders, the works! You sir deserve my respect! Truly in example on how to cross the limits responsibly and enjoy yourself without endangering others. We watch so much irresponsible stupidity in riding videos that I feel “refreshed” watching this! Congrats, really! Ps: subscribed

[@Schaaf]

Thank you very much! Welcome!

[@m.mcd.46]

The way all motorbike videos should be no stupid music just the howl of the engine 👏👏

[@Schaaf]

thanks Martin!

[@renevanderkraats3811]

Combined with your clear audio, good video, informative text, and wonderful landscapes, your videos are a delight! Sometimes I'm kind of 'bodysteering' along behind my laptop (apparently). Puzzled looks. 'Why are you doing that?'. 'Cause Schaaf is awesome??'. More puzzled looks...

[@michaelsalzer4362]

I bought a Triumph 675 because of your videos. I was mesmerized by that sound and I pictured myself riding through the twisties like you did in that Triumph video. Well I got the bike and it sounded amazing and I was having a blast just like you. Man that was pure adrenaline and my bike sounded sweet.....until I high sided. Both I and the bike lived to ride another day. That crash made me a better rider!

[@ludicrousspeed82]

Absolutely one of the best sounding motors out there! Thank you for riding respectfully and safely. It's nice to see people slow down around pedestrians and blind corners.

[@Schaaf]

thanks mate

[@opticalecho119]

You can tell he’s a good rider because he rides quickly and with good technique, but he’s very in control and rides intelligently.

[@JordTheRock]

Man, I have so much respect for the way you ride. Always slowing down when there is bicycles on the road, being cheered on by people (for having an amazing bike and slowing down I guess? xd) and you know when to go fast. Take care!

[@Schaaf]

thanks Jordan!

[@Claimjumper55]

I've had my '19 Tuono Factory for 2 months now. Your video really makes me wish I was riding right now instead of stuck at work uploading files to a server. The sound is glorious stock and I'm putting the Akra carbon fiber end can on next week.

[@ajmotovideos6779]

Would love to own a tuono. I just worry about the costs of keeping one.

[@Claimjumper55]

@@ajmotovideos6779 I don't think it will be too expensive. It only needs serviced every 6500 miles.

[@Schaaf]

Hope you got to ride yours in the meantime ;)

[@N.A._McBee]

You're the king of motorcycle sound experience! And, please, take care, man!

[@Schaaf]

thanks mate!

[@Maximum357]

I actually agree. It's fast but decent riding.

[@yusufomar9188]

This is no exhaust note. This is an orchestra. Your bike is alive and is singing a folk tale. Simply glorious.

[@Schaaf]

Thanks Yusuf!

[@simonegiannini2421]

Are you telling me this sound comes from a STOCK exhaust?!

[@EdumastaDMBC]

yeah, best there is... aprilia did a brilliant job! It opens up at around 4500rpm so you can be quiet in town and roar out of it :)

[@ventisette.]

Too bad it looks like SHIT because it is actually a very well designed exhaust system, once the flapper valve is open it is pretty much straight through.

[@EdumastaDMBC]

@@ventisette. good thing is I just don't see it while riding and got used to the look of it... as it just sounds to good and you are 100% legal which is very important in Austria... you can easily get into serious troubles!

[@aftrunx]

@@ventisette. then just use the street legal Akra like me. :)

[@jonas0564]

Aftrunx €€€€€€€€

[@renevanderkraats3811]

God, that V4 engine note... Used to own a '99 Mille, always loved Aprilias. Nowadays I ride Bavarian though.

[@renevanderkraats3811]

@Alan Naranjo I rode an RS250 once, really enjoyed myself! With all the crackling, buzzing, and crazy powerband, even going 120kmh felt like you were racing a GP :D

[@Miata822]

I love the THUNDER of my Speed Triple but the song of that V4 is unbeatable. I recently got a Zero SR/F electric bike. It handles well and the acceleration is incredible, but it is the sound that I miss. I was surprised how much I used sound to judge corner entry speed. Without it I was too fast or too slow. The quiet motor is an advantage too. I can hear the tires grip and work on the road. It's a different feeling. Ride one if you get the chance.

[@Schaaf]

Thats interesting!! Thanks Bill!

[@CrazyIQ]

The Aprilia V4 has such an insanely beautiful sound to listen to. We were in Harz, Germany last week and a RSV4 with SC exhaust was srceaming up and down a 4,5km stretch with 36 turns. Mesmerizingly beautiful. Ride safe (like you do)!

[@Schaaf]

Thanks

There is just ONE other engine that sounds better than this V4 engine, and it is the rotary 4 engine, from the 787b. Pure engine orchestra.

I have put this immediately to the favorites, since the noise is tinglingly good. Once I was passed by such a bike on a country road riding my race bicycle. The noise is amazing, makes the hair stand. Makes actually everything stand :-)

Just found your channel & really enjoy it! You ride that Tuono V4 sooo damn good & I dig that you respect others on the roads (bikers) as well as speed zones (they’re there for a reason). I have same bike except it’s 2018, their AWESOME! “THUNDER”

Honda needs to make a v4 naked with the engine from the 2010 vfr. With a better sounding exhaust of course.

would be sweet

That would be awesome! The engine from my 93 VFR would do the job. 100hp is all u need. And the old Gens sound already fantastic with stock exhaust.

One question... Is your white balance in auto setting? Took a look at the description but saw nothing about white balance. Also: THUNDER!!! 🤣

[@TheBurnout96]

Because of the blue tint? I think it is postprocessed and the shadows are Made more blue while Highlights we're turned more warm/yellow-orange. It's basically the same as the most of the Instagram filters 👍

[@Schaaf]

Yes, Auto! Thank you!!

[@Antmanmoto]
