Got to rip this awesome 2015 Aprilia Tuono V4 R and of course had to pop a few wheelies! ;) SALT DECALS HERE: saltxthexwound.... INSTAGRAM: Instagram @SALTxTHExWOUND
I like how you're like glad my friends trust me riding their bike......bruh.... You're Salt the wound!!!! I'm moving to Florida and if I ever see you I'm straight up handing you the keys to my bike. Like please wheelie my R1! And sign the tank lol
I'm on my second one! 16 and newer are 1100's and all around better bikes but I also absolutely loved my 1000 also. In just over a year I've put 11k miles on my 17 Tuono, just can't get enough of it.
Tuono kept there good sound from the older version that was a v2 pretty much the reason for muscle car sound as u can hear from a harley but i would say the italian v2 and v4 just got alot tougher and growly sound, Riding a Tuono 2006 that got the v2 myself and loving every minute riding it
V4 sounds completely different from a V Twin and especially a Harley. What gives this bike the great sound is that it's a Crossplane 4 cylinder just like the new R1.
SALT: I like to take it easy and don’t push someone else’s bike. (Wheelies it for a 1/4 mile) SALT: It’s really nice that friends let me ride their bikes. (Winds it up good twice. Minimum 3 wheelie attempts) Hello? You’re SALT. Anything less would be a disappointment! Lmbo! Be safe CD. ☮️
It's the right tool for the job. Better cam profiles for street use, better ergos, larger fuel tanks, etc. MUCH harder to exploit supebikes on public roads. Gixx1k, R1, Fireblade, etc, in my opinion are total wastes of race technology when used on the street. 1290 Superduke, MT-10, Tuono 1100, S1000R are MUCH more capable for many more things AND to me, are way more fun! :-)
@@SALTxTHExWOUND Word man ✊. Idk if you've taken the Gixxer to the track, but if not, definitely give it a shot. No racing necessary; just LOTS of fun learning about how a race machine feels in its natural habitat. TOTALLY accerelated my learning. I've ridden the Gixxer6 and the Ninja 636 on track only. Bro, they don't even feel the same as they do on the street. NO wrist or back pain. Lol!! Just staying in the tuck, with LOTS of leaning and learning. Fortunately, I've got a decent amount of tracks nearby here in south Texas. Circuit of the Americas being the closest 👍😲🤩😎!!! Peace and safe riding my man ✌️.
I currently own a aprilia shiver 750 and in maybe a year or 2 i would like to get a tuono but they are so damn expensive the shiver is more like a baby brother of the tuono but its till fast enough for me around 95 hp 😉
@@SALTxTHExWOUND i think that it is pretty rare in the us it never realy became the sucses that aprilia wanted it to be it was beaten by the street triple and that was mostly to blame on bad suspension but now a days thats an easy fix but its stil a very underrated bike in my opinion but the looks still hold up today 😎
The Shiver isn't similar to the Tuono really. Completely different type of bike. Different type of frame, V2 engine instead of a V4. I had one for a while. The Shiver is maybe even the more sensible daily bike.
Not this model Tuono. This is the 1000cc, its been replaced by the 1100. The 1000cc is cheap. You'll struggle to get any other bike with a quickshifter, traction control, wheelie control, abs, rear lift control and almost 170bhp for near this price. They basically took the RSV4, gave it upright bars, shorter gearing, and a couple other mods to make it better for roads(and definitely not as good for track. But still capable). I'm amazed that more people in the US don't know about these bikes, but I guess its because there aren't many Aprilia dealers there. Check out any supernaked shootout on RUclips from 2011 onwards. Only the 1290r and MT10 comes even close. The MT/FZ-09 isn't in the same class. The MT10 is the direct competitor from Yamaha. I started riding in 2000 and this is the 1st bike I've bought that hasn't been a supersport/superbike. Next time you get to ride it, nail some full throttle upshifts on the quickshifter! 🤘🏽
💥💥 you the man brother! I’m jealous of the riding weather you all have. One day it’s 65 here the next 38. Tennessee has bipolar weather lol. The DRAGON opened yesterday so I’m sure we be going there quite often lol
PUNISHER865 nice! We probably won’t be up there til the fall, got a lot going on with planning the wedding and what not but I’ll give ya a heads up before we come 👍🏻
SALTxTHExWOUND Sounds good brother. It will give leslie time to get better at riding. But I plan to take a Saturday and Sunday off to ride with you all if that’s cool. If not just say hell no lol.
@@SALTxTHExWOUND this model (2014 I'm guessing by the colour) is quite a bit cheaper than the equivalent superbike of the same year. And about the same as the other top 3 supernakeds. Of the newer model you have the 1100rr or the 1100 Factory to choose from and there's a big price difference.
@Casey R. Theres a bit more difference in price here in the UK. (the RR works out at roughly $4000 cheaper in 💵 ) Tbh, as I'm starting to do more trackdays, even the ohlins that comes on the factory could be improved to the TTX GP instead of the TTX 36. The tail, I'd get from AF1 or ebay. I think RR is the better deal. It'll take the 200 rear anyway, so it doesn't seem worthwhile getting the factory. Especially as most will use it on the road. I've got the 1000cc V4R. When change it, I'll get the RR for sure.
Not sure if that year has one but they have a blipper on them so you don't have let off the throttle and the fuel tank isn't very big.. 100 miles on full tank if ya carful. I just to have a aprllia tourno 125 2 stroke back in the day basically its the same as the rs version but naked..
@@FreDCBelgium A supersport will outdo most nakeds, but a Tuano is an RSV4 with motocross bars. That's 180 hp at the rear wheel. The Tuano would kick the shit out of a supersport in the canyons, and not far away on the track: ruclips.net/video/ttqK-u03eGs/видео.html ruclips.net/video/NQcaYhev9Ks/видео.html
Hope you guys enjoy this video! She was a blast to ride! 😄👍🏻
Great video u deserve more subscribers man ur a great RUclipsr love the videos 😀.
SALTxTHExWOUND you can try out my rc51 if you want. Vtwin 1000 0_o
MurdockTIME oooo I’d love to!!
SAVAGE DAWG thank you man!
We've heard nothing but good things about the Tuono. Honestly, for public road hooligan use super nakeds can't be beat.
David & Elizabeth yeah they’re just excellent bikes! I’d love to get on the gsxs 750 or 1000 one day!
@@SALTxTHExWOUND FZ10 would be cool, too if you get a chance. 👍
check out Cyclecruza's tuono V4
othus vice don’t check out Cyclecruza’s video...
@Legio XXI Rapax my comment was made before they knew what was wrong with the bike.
I like how you're like glad my friends trust me riding their bike......bruh.... You're Salt the wound!!!! I'm moving to Florida and if I ever see you I'm straight up handing you the keys to my bike. Like please wheelie my R1! And sign the tank lol
Insulin Junkie haha I appreciate it bro! Not like I’m famous or anything, but I’d take that R1 for a spin 😈👌🏻
@@SALTxTHExWOUND you might not think so but you're an inspiration to more than you know brotha. As long as you wheelie it! Keep rocking.
Insulin Junkie well thank you brother I appreciate you! 🙏🏻😁

SavageApeV4 yeah I read up on them later and saw they switched to the 1100, would love to hop on one!
Bro similar story. Had a 2014, sold it got depressed and got 2016 factory. Not selling this one
What a beautiful bike, the perfect blend of comfort/power, great for us older guys!
Jim Mansi absolutely! 💯👌🏻
Does 31 count as older? :-)
@@sund5 I would say no, 31 is not old, I’m 60 & still ride sport bikes & do track days & I don’t feel old yet!
Add the 1290 Super Duke R to the experience portfolio when you get the chance. 105 ft-lb crank torque. Hard to beat it.
Lifted_Above most definitely will do that!!! 😍👍🏻
4:50 You came so close to going off the road you scared me haha
2Wheel Pursuit lol kinda scared myself 😅😂🤣
I felt it too.
Tuono kept there good sound from the older version that was a v2 pretty much the reason for muscle car sound as u can hear from a harley but i would say the italian v2 and v4 just got alot tougher and growly sound, Riding a Tuono 2006 that got the v2 myself and loving every minute riding it
V4 sounds completely different from a V Twin and especially a Harley. What gives this bike the great sound is that it's a Crossplane 4 cylinder just like the new R1.
Can't beat the Tuono/RSV4 in the engine sound department! The only thing that comes really close is a VFR800 VTEC with a full system!
Szlejer no doubt! Sounds sooo good!
My 94 vfr750 sounds better than the vtec I think, gear driven cams and what not
@@750rocketman5 The double underseat exhaust arrangement of the VTEC beats any other VFR configuration by a mile... I tried them all.
Bike starts- auto captions say “music” 😆👍
So peaceful watching your vlogs the bikes are great but the beautiful rodes you ride on I look around and it's so green and wonderful to see.
great fun bike. get on the 1100 factory version with race map and auto blipper, like my 2018 one, then you will REALLYYYY love it.
The sound of that bike is amazing
RecoilM8 music to my ears! 👂🏻😍👌🏻
How easy did you find to wheelie this bike compared to others? Is it difficult to keep it up stable at balance?
those are amazing bikes! and they sounds so good with sc project exhausts
Live Free Moto yep that’s exactly the exhaust it had on it!! 💯👍🏻

Yup, exactly the same here.
I'm currently with the Shiver 750 (For the last year) and planing on the Tuono V4 for the future.
@@Shahar_C nice man 👍

Is it bad I’ve never heard of this bike? All I hear about is Ducati, BMW, Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki etc...looks like a nice bike, love the sound!
Jackie0930 they’re less popular it America, since they’re Italian bikes. But great bikes! When I do see them out I have to admire them 😍👌🏻
For sure

I hate winter . Cant wait to ride again.
Beautiful piece of machinery. Service and repair on them is outrageous though I’m sure.
David Ambra yep any Italian bike unfortunately 😕
I love those bikes. They suit tall folk. I just have to sell my spare kidney and I'll be sorted :D Nice review amigo. V4s sound amazing
The GorillaBiker haha yes the only downfall is they’re pricey
@@SALTxTHExWOUND yup...but I feel worth a single kidney tbh.

SALTxTHExWOUND 👊🏻. Love the aprilia. I got a chance to ride the rsv4. It was fun. You should try the MT10
naveen bobby I will if given the opportunity! I’d love to ride both 😁
Why wait till you're "a little bit older" to enjoy a great bike like that! All I see are younger guys on the MT-09s. !!
VoodooCru very true! Haha good point!
You don't need to be older to enjoy a Tuono. It's an rsv4 without clip on bars.
I borrow my bike to my friend only on straight road because I dont trust him much in corners after his last crash :D
TheCevi understandable haha
The Tuono is the best time on 2 that nobody's heard of

What’s the outro song?
Michael Novak 300 Violin orchestra 👍🏻

Michael Novak no problem bro 👊🏻
I take it you were not aware the bike has a factory quick shifter?
