One thing that I hate and that I really don't understand on this bike is why the put on the rear tire a 190/50 measure. It'useless, in 2022 no one uses it. It would have been much better with 190/55, like almost every bike. 190/50 is a less performing tyre, and there are much less modern tyres on the market in this size, cause is old and no one uses it anymore. EDIT: to people saying "change the tyre", the problem is this, you can't change the original measure of the tyre, it is ILLEGAL, if police stops you and notice that, or worst, if you have an accident, you are really in trouble with an illegal measur tyre.

@@Schaaf would be nice if they gave these bikes at least hydraulic preload adjusters for passenger/luggage purposes. Having that being electronic would be even more awesome. Albeit I wouldn't want to have a passenger on the tuono anyway. Base tuono is a bit misadvertised and not differentiated enough from the factory since most differences are pretty easy and inexpensive to switch around (windscreen, sprocket, tires, passenger pegs, seats, bar risers to adjust the height there, some of the factories came with rsv4 subframes and some with same as base tuono), the biggest difference being the electronic suspension which makes more sense for the road. The legs are just as crunched up as rsv4, Aprilia has delivered zero sets of panniers to the US of A, so most people use aftermarket.
