You should change the title to Tuono V4 Factory, because the Tuono V4 non-factory actually has lower pegs, and suspension that is more forgiving while -being adjustable. There is a distinct difference between the factory and non-factory. the info in this video can be misleading for those that is interested in the standard Tuono/Touring Tuono. So many of the CONs in this video is not indicative of the standard/touring Tuono.
Sounds like a great beginner's bike
Terrible beginner bike
It's way too slow, a twin turbo Hayabusa is the only option
@@QuakeGamerROTMG oh yes!
You must work for an Insurance company
😂
Picking mine up Friday for my first bike
To summarize everything “I don’t like it cuz it’s too good”
And I’m too slow
I’think you have a point, but In my mind and heart the reason I love my Tuono v4 factory 2020 is just because of that. It’s a crazy, super fast missile. When you ride it’s just the bike and you, nothing else exist.
Really disappointed with the way you evaluate this bike. I understand it is not the kind of bike you like. But I think you should evaluate it based on what it is and not what you would expect it to be. It is not a commuter. It has never been designed for it. Yes it is exhausting, but it is exhausting because it is so intense. If you want to be relaxed, buy a boring bike :-) yes it is too much … but we love it
If you want to "enjoy the scenery", get a Harley. Lot's of time to look around while waiting for a towtruck!
I have a V2 Tuono and it is the greatest commuter for the simple reason that I look forward to going to my shitty job 😁
Still have my 2009 V2…love it
@@ApriliaRacer14 I love my Tuono V2
Me too!
You definitely got a lot right about this bike.
Before I bought my 2020 Tuono 1100 RR, I was a daily rider. Now, the Tuono only comes out from under it's cover on the weekend and the occasional weekday off from work. It's a reward or the perfect escape from life as it requires your full concentration.
If I wake up and I'm not feeling 100% on my game...I won't even get on the Tuono. You have to be completely in synch with this bike or it's not even any fun to ride. I respect that. In the end, It's just too God damn beautiful of a bike to wreck.
I agree 100%!
Is it really all that? I am coming from a 1290 super duke r with power commander, 2 tooth increase in rear sprocket, high torque manual rekluse clutch. I got used to it. That bike had 140is nm of torque and 177 horses. How much more gonzo could this bike be??? I ask because I have a dark tuono v4 factory in my sights at the local dealer. My ktm threw a crank a5 38k. Total catastrophic failure and they would do NOTHING. Thinking this is the next bike. I have 35 years of street experience on the daily. Thoughts and guidance???
@@stephenpatton8690 my guess is the 1290 Super Duke might be similar. I still really only take my Tuono out on longer rides on the weekend. In the city, there's little reason to take it out of first gear and never a reason to go above second.
Now that I've had this bike for almost two years, I realize how rarely I really get on it. Maybe my next bike will be a 600cc. On the Tuono, if I get on it it's at 100mph in a couple seconds and personally I just don't need a ticket like that messing up my commercial vehicle insurance rates.
But, I still love this bike. It's my toy... I keep it looking showroom new.
I picked up my 2022 tuono v4 1100 factory this weekend! Love it! That being said, I still don't understand your assessment of this machine; yeah, it is powerful but, come on, you will only ride it when you are 100%? I really don't get it. You need to ride more:)
@@stephenpatton8690 I'm 56 years old...well past the age where I have any interest in dying on a motorcycle or ending up being one of the wrecks I come across multiple times a year here in California from guys who think they can handle their motorcycle...and learn the hard way they can't. Yeah, I'll stick to riding my Tuono when I'm able to invest my full attention to it.
You could own that Tuono for 2 years and you'd still never consistently get 75% of it's capability out of it off the track. I don't even have to know your experience level as a rider to know that. The fact is off track roads simply aren't designed for a bike with the Tuono's power.
Unless of course, I'm currently exchanging messages with "Max Wrist" in which case we both now your Tuono will end up in a ditch inevitably. 🤣
in the twisties you can ride the torque in 3rd and 4th and enjoy the chassis on the edge of the tyre or you can ride 1st and 2nd and get a bit more involved and still enjoy the sweet sweet chassis, I find you can ride sensibly but it's so cool to have that power when you want it, those quick overtakes then relax never get old
If your in the market for a DAILY bike I agree that the MT09 is probably the perfect bike for daily use and some weekend shredding. I'll put it like this... The MT09 is a very capable bike, you will be able to keep up with the liter boys in the turns and not fall too far behind on the straights. The MT09 has great power especially if you flash it like most people do. Maintenance cost are lower and running cost are as well.
Tuono imo is the jack of all trades, but I do agree it's not the best for commuting. However if you like like speed and some comfort you will be hard press to find a better bike. Not only will you be able to keep up in the turns on the Tuono, but when it comes to straight line performance barely any bike will beat you to 160mph if you have good flash (raced S1000rr, RSV4, R1).
When it comes to having the bikes on the side of the tire the Tuono wins imo, but to be fair the Tuono has full ohlins suspension and my old MT09 was stock suspension. At the end of the day they're both great bikes and you will have a ton of fun on either bike. If you need a daily bike buy an MT09, but are looking for a great weekend bike, like speed and don't mind spending more cash you won't be disappointed with Tuono. Just my .02
Had a 2018 MT09 for about a year, logged about 10k miles on it in that year. Traded it in for my 2019 Tuono Factory Summit Attack and have logged about 4k miles on her so far.
Man, I really wish y'all had some better curves in TX lol, that last road was not ideal for the Tuono. Gotta take her to the mountains 😉
Ride Safe Everyone
Man, that could have been cut down to like 12 min,42 was painful. Yes it's a "motorcycle" ( I think I heard that word 1000 times?) . And yes.def not a commuter or cruiser. If u want that,get something else. Superbike with handlebars
that's what a tuono is. Take it from there.
Many US Moto vloggers repeat the word “motorcycle” too much. Likewise they all seem to say “without further adieu”, which is incorrect if the intention is to say “without further delay”. Just say “so, without further delay, …”.
Not a fan of Spite's reviews. He is more comfortable on an Eduro bike or a Harley. Yammie would of been having a blast on this bike.
Handlebar’s can be raised with Mana risers, foot pegs lowered with Crosstrax lowering pegs all for less than $250
Dude... Yesterday I had a chance to test ride an S1000R... I cannot begin to tell you how dangerous that bike was for me, I cannot imagine what a Tuono would feel like man... I cannot even begin to imagine... Within 15 mins of riding the BMW I "saw" how I was gonna die haha
I would like to say that I have theTuono v4 I think he’s completely wrong when it comes to It’s not chill in the engine management three setting the bike is extremely chill not out of control at all. You can totally cruise around on the bike with very little ease throttle response very mellow as long as you have it in engine management number three this bike is very easy to drive and there’s no issues with it being too powerful if you just wanna cruise. Everyone’s opinion is different. It’s totally able to be driven anyway you want. Gentle or aggressive it doesn’t matter. It can do both.
So you're saying I should definitely get one for my commute from Temple to Austin?
Yes lol I have a tuono as my primary vehicle only complaints I have are, no gas gauge, and you gotta fill up every 120 miles but that's also cause I'm always revving it out. Other then that in my opinion it is a superior bike lol
@@Mystic-Herbalist420 the 21 and up models have a fuel gauge :D
@@TheZephata yeah I was kinda bummed I just bought mine a few weeks before when they announced the new model but they were practically giving the 20s away I guess to make room for the new ones. I got mine for 0 down 0 interest 16k brand new, never even had oil or a battery in it yet.
@@Mystic-Herbalist420 I also had a hard time deciding between the 20 and the 21. Price, more aggressive look etc were arguments for the 20. In the end I took the 21 because of the way better display, new styling with better headlights, fuel gauge and because it has 95db stationary. Some of the best Austrian roads are closed for bikes over 95db stationary noise so that was the nail in the coffin for me.
I really appreciate Spite’s honest review. I doubt I’d find another review where they say ‘there’s really nowhere you could use all of this’. I’m of the same view point and that’s why I love ‘super mids’. I’d love a Tuono 750 V4 aimed at the Ducati SF V2.
Spite is the gem of this channel TBH.
I think most of the reviews says the only place you can really ride it is on track
I disagree that it's too much or hard to ride. Maybe it's not a good fit for you. I love mine and it does what I want it to whenever I want. It doesn't complain and it obeys my every command with excellent precision. The 1 and only thing I'm not a fan of is it runs hot. Commuting in heavy traffic is not the best and if you want to keep it cool you have to shut it off at the red lights. It's not made for heavy traffic though so I don't have much right to complain if I force it to ride through it. Sometimes I just can't help myself cuz I just always want to ride.
Not 👏 a 👏 naked 👏 bike 👏
Not a sport tourer either...
It's the world's greatest streetbike with the best engine ever put in a motorcycle... Period. It does anything including lugging about town at 2k rpm. There are more way powerful streetbikes out there (V4S Streetfighter..)
I dont agree with you spite, I got the 2021 tuono v4 factory as my first beginner bike. And after riding it for a month and doing the break in service, I felt this bike is lacking power and honestly its not fun enough for me anymore. Also because I needed to extract that little 175 hp and bring it to redline all the time, I doubt this engine would last long, as they are notorious bout the quality. I might eventually need to upgrade to a H2R or turbo busa after I get me full liscence.
Love the sound of the V4
That is true with every large capacity sporty bike, you need good road to experience what it can do.
I fear he would have to go a looong way before encountering something like the Stelvio pass you are riding through with your tuono. (Not that the Stelvio is even great, I hate it, always full of tourists). But riding the tuono in the wide plain and dull American highways roads is criminally undermining its potential. Lucky us that we are gifted the Alps here.
@@lhdrones1775 Well spotted! It is Stelvio, and yes, busy pass, Southern France and Dolomites (besides touristic Gardena) are my favorite Alpine areas. I was there also on my VFR800 and it is not powerful (enjoyable) enough when going uphill (after 180deg bend). Had to reduce to 1st and wait for 7k rpm to have some juice. Tuono goes uphill like a dream. And maybe what is more important it is so much safer to overtake when you have this power. Naked bikes are not for highways, it was not pleasant for me at all. I would even say, I suffer on highways. But when I hit twisty roads it is so much fun to ride, even if I use only first 2 or 3 gears :)
I'd like to point out that the Tuono today celebrates its 20 years of life, it was in fact released to the press in March 2002.
It was born as a special edition of a stripped down Rsv 1000, she was arguably ugly, wild as a beast, with no controls, and she was probably one of the first examples of what we would call today a “hypernaked”.
I've got three Tuono's Gen1, Gen3 & '21 V4 1100
@@DukeOfTwist I'm very tempted to get a gen 1 as a daily ride, am I stupid? Otherwise I'll get the sl falco as its the same motor just a little tamer
@@hopalong8715 My Gen1 is a track bike, but I am looking for a Gen 1 Tuono as a regular ride as I mostly tour on the '21 V4 1100 (base model)
@@DukeOfTwist How are the gen 1s on the road? I haven't been able to find one to test ride but I love the sound of them
@@hopalong8715 Beautiful, completely raw & analogue. Super comfy and so torquey...
Owned a 2017 Tuono for a year, and while it was a nice bike it did become sort of frustrating never beeing able to use all of the power. Decided to let it go, and all i really miss about it are the looks and the engine noise.
the bike isn't too much. you just need to do some track days and get used to turning and running fast. then it'll feel more mild.
I know because i have a 2016
I feel you and appreciate your opinion.. but, all those negatives sound like a good time to me
One other point on the Tuono. Once you ride it a couple thousand miles you actually do get a much better feel for the throttle on this bike.
Some miles on this bike helps to adjust to it's few quirks and make for a more enjoyable ride.
But, you definitely hit a lot of the points about the Tuono.
I personally am not interested in owning anything that crazy. The super middleweights are the perfect street bikes in my opinion. But you can definitely use a lot more of this bike than you’re letting on. You don’t have to go 150+ but like 0-100 or getting it over on the side of the tire and blasting out of a turn.
I find it hard to call the tuono a naked bike when it has a front fairing. What do you guys think @noobs?
That it is not only the tiny amount of fairing that decides if a bike is naked or not. In my view “nakeds” may have been originally intended for a stripped down sport bike, but now the term refers to a motorcycle suited for the street, with handlebar, torquier engine and less committed ergonomy.
Nonetheless if I had to find communalities between a Tuono and either the mt-10 or the r1 it is clear to me that it has far more things in common with the first than with the latter. Same with all the other supernakeds, it is not a couple of inches of plastic that makes it ineligible to be called naked.
No, I agree. I really do not see this as a naked bike. I didn't even realise people were calling this a naked bike! This is a sport bike through and through.
@@MaaZeus Its risers & bars posed to clip-ons that define a naked bike not the fairings.
@@DukeOfTwist Naked bikes came to be from street fighters and street fighters are sport bikes with their fairings removed. Stripped naked. Handle bars had nothing to do with it.
@@MaaZeus What ever, Tomato - Tomato. In my world a naked bike has risers n flatish bars, Street fighters have clip ons & then you have cafe racers with/without???? Bikini fairings.
Downvoted for going
I own a 21 V4 Factory myself, just wanted to comment on the cruise control.
It won’t work in Gears 1 and 2 at all.
In gears 3-5 it only works as long as you’re sub 6k Rpm because that’s where the exhaust flap will open. Propably they just want you to not cruise around with open flap in 3rd gear, so they rather have u shift up until you either get under the 6k rpm or reach 6th gear. In 6th gear it will allow Cruise Control over 6k rpm.
Could probably fix all of that with a tune but at least here in Germany it seems like a sensible thing.
It is a super reasonable thing to do. Mapping won’t change it, at least it didn’t do anything to mine. In Germany probably you are the only ones in Europe that can try that 6th gear cruise at maximum speed legally. I dunno if there is a limit honestly.
@@lhdrones1775 I mean you can change basically anything by remapping the bike, wasn’t talking about the Akra map or anything but an individual map. But yeah, definitely sensible thing to do and if you actually still have the flap installed you should surely notice how and why it works like this :D
@@lhdrones1775 also, for the limit: I tested it up to I think 190kph, can test if it still works over 200 when the weather is better again here in southern germany
Edit: Also the looks when u drive by somebody at 120+ kph just chillin handsfree on the autobahn are pretty fun
@@TheZephata I do basically the same here in northern Italy. I love it so damn much. It is true that you can’t always use it fully, but it is nice to know that you can still do some things, like some Crazy pulls when there is nobody, or scare the shit out of those who dare come with us.
About the mapping it is true that virtually you can change everything, also allow the ignition with the kickstand down, but I doubt it has ever been asked to be changed.
@@TheZephata I still have to try and test the autobahns, maybe this summer I will find a little time to come in the Black Forest, who knows…

Wooow....a fellow metal head, love ur channel even more now sir!!
Man I hope I don't win this as a giveaway
Such a great honest review, I have ridden similar bikes and agree completely with the sntiment. Just wish they made bikes that look this good with 120-130bhp that you could actually use the full potential of on the street. I will probably end up getting one of these next as for me its the best looking naked bike out there and so far I have brought bikes with my head. Great review Spite, I genuinely laughed out loud several times.
Haha you ain’t using the full potential of 130-140hp on the street. Not a chance.
Tuono 660 Factory has 100hp, that’s more than sufficient, looks good too.
I doubt you ride that slow off camera… 70 mph in the left lane.. nooo way you are that guy!
You guys are the ones that taught me to ride 5-10 mph faster than the flow of traffic, yet you are being passed in the fast lane!
What 1000cc bike isn’t to much 😂😊
Thorough. I think if you had tested the base model, which as you said has fine suspension for most uses, instead of the racier version you would have found it more suitable for daily use. Higher bars, slightly bigger windscreen and higher gearing contribute a lot to overall usability and les ‘go-go-go’
I have the factory and would like to have the standard Tuono as well!
@@patriotarborist711 I've got the Base Model and swap with my bosses factory after he cramps up PMSL
You’ve hit the nail on the head. I’ve owned my 18 Factory for about 2 months now and have realised through tight bumpy roads I’d be way quicker on my MT-07 with its softer suspension and flickability (and less fear of binning an expensive bike). It really is just a flex bike. It’s only when you find those beautiful smooth high speed sweepers that you begin to understand where this bike wants to live - and that’s above 130km/hr
After watching your videos here are the best i gathered up. All of these are flagship bikes.
For commuting - MT10
For weekend squid fun - RSV4 1100 factory
For touring - Goldwing (fuck you. Change my mind. I dare you.)
For off-roading - KLR-650 😂
It depends where do you want to tour. If it’s a coast to coast on the dull American routes then yes, if you plan something more complex like European alps, doing it on a goldwing is like cruising on a bull in a china shop.
goldwing is so american honda made them here for years and years.
@@lhdrones1775 oh yeah that's a thing. Forgot about that. Then Goldwing for plain grounds and tracer 900 for mountains.
@@Nodus it's a freaking cruise ship. Let's just all agree to that much.
@@headhunter531 yes indeed. I have done all of the mentioned things with my tuono (even a little off-road, nothing crazy) but I can’t rid my mind from the fact that the superDuke gt would be probably one of the best in all four (ok maybe not the latter, but it would be more capable than most nakeds).
I would love to have something like it from Aprilia. I admire KTM for their products, but the looks are all ghastly.
Oh c'mon, that's the Euro4/5 fueling. Putting in the ECU Race mode and it becomes super smooth initial roll on
I fu.king love my 2020 Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory, Yes it is my Friday Saturday Sunday bike. Hair on fire but after 1 year, you get use to the PURE POWER, Im no Rossi but she is a beast and you giggle a flipping lot.
I mean... you could have left the stock muffler on if you wanted it to feel less crazy...
FIRST!
so close
Get rekt
Fast Commuting +weekend twisties + trackdays is definitely where this belongs.
I bought a brand new 2023 red colored Tuono V4 a few weeks ago. I was actually kinda worried because I tried one about four years ago and I accidentally scuffed up the demo bike at the dealer (insurance fortunately paid repairs though, about $3k worth). But I got more experience since that happened. And oh my god. This bike is amaaaaazing! It is a glorious V4 sound. Its range is not great though, but I guess that figures for this engine type. But man, it’s a gorgeous machine and it is such a fun ride. Totally worth it.
Just bought my bucket list tuono v4 factory, 2016 two days ago. It's showroom minty low miles and a greatly reduced price from new. After ripping around the north okanagan in BC for a few hours,it is the most amazing bike I've owned! If it had 4 wheels, you'd have to call it a Ferrari! Nothing about it annoys me. I'm fortunate to live in the north okanagan region with some of the best twisties around so it's perfect for my retired lifestyle. Get one!
kinda want the V4 for the sound and tech but i really want the 660 tuono now since i can ring it out more
im also thinking of getting the tuono 660 or the rs 660 as an upgrade after my mt 07 just because of the better suspension and tech
@@derfritz we really need yamaha to make a mt07SP. my friends has a 2017 mt07 and i can say its more unstable than my 2014 yamaha xj6 in the corners. (they are both A2 restricted)
@@mala7794 yeah that would be perfect the suspension is really holding the bike back in the corners
I'd love to own an rs660 but they're like $20k here in South Africa
@@volgerrieholy shit. Here in America we can get an rsv4 factory for 25k. Is that American dollar or what? Sorry, I'll admit I have no idea what currency South Africa uses
My husband commutes on a Speed Triple 1200RR. I LOVE commuting on that bike as well. More than on my 700. And ESPECIALLY the semi active suspension is one of the best things on that bike. Not only for comfort, but also for performance.
I love my tuono v4, best street bike for me, super smooth and very fun riding
I do and have owned LOTS of Aprilia's
THE LOCK TO LOCK !!! WHY ???
I have a KTM 1290 SAR, after riding the KTM for a few weeks as the daily bike and then getting on he RSV4 is wild. I mean numerous times running out of lock and dumping the bike on the floor while trying to park.
Also
THE F*****G STAND !!!!
EVERY SINGLE MODEL APRILLIA MAKE, the stand is f***ing beyond. Get a little bit of wind, slight slope, bit of rain, kids playing football, wrong day of the week, no reason at all. The bike takes severe umbridge has tantrum, deciding it needs a lie down, throwing it's self on the floor in protest.
BUT these are my only complaints in 25 years, so i'm more than happy to tolerate these problems in order to for these bikes to exist.
the base model is a bit more upright. Love the Tuono, you are crazy, it never gets old!!
This was a good review for those motorcyclists I pass when I’m out on a ride. I don’t understand how they ride like that, and they don’t understand why I ride like that.
I got mine 2 weeks ago. And he’s 100% right. You will only
Fully understand what he means if you ride one. It’s a special kind of monster.
Fun Fact: He was paid a $1.00 bonus every time he said the word “motorcycle” in this video.
He is now a trillionaire.
I ride one every day 100mi round trip for the last two years! it don't get old trust me
38:50 "you cant cruise on anything but highways speeds/gears on this bike" I have a 2018 tuono. I commute 100 miles daily for work on it and yes this is true however i only feel a need for cruise control on the freeway which is half my commute and ill sit comfortably with both hands off the bars at 90 comfortably. A good bit of my commute is 35 mph stuck behind traffic but at high eleva. and cool ambient temps in the morning, the way home is 90 degrees freedom units on the way home and at 35mph shes runnin sorta hot imo just solely going off ECT. I need to do a coolant flush and bleed as I'm the second owner and I assume its never been done before(can almost guaranfuckingtee it hasnt been done) however I also know just a characteristic of the bike to run hot, the other 25 miles are super fun twisty turny roads and i swear I'm goin to end up wearing the sides before the middle lol
Is the “lurchy” throttle as bad as the 2016 ZX10R’s throttle? My race ZedEx is like that too. I’m sure a good engine tuner can flash the ECU to fix that problem.
You have an active online suspension. Adjust it for street riding if it's too stiff!
All that beautiful Italian artistry, all that power, all that huge pricetag, and these bikes still come with a little square, hard to read, DIGITAL dog-leg tach and teeny tiny speedometer numbers. Chinzy little Chinese screens that aren't even OLED screens, is an unbelievable tragedy in the modern sportbike market. Only Yamaha understands, and still uses an analog tach with a huge digital speedo readout.
I totally disagree with alot of what your saying! It's a great bike a complete joy to ride! I don't see how you couldn't have fun and enjoy this bike! If you want to see the scenery buy a cruiser!
You say the super duke is very upright. I think you should ride the 2021 version. It is quite similar to the tuono!
As my mate says, it doesn't accelerate more just teleports. Great bike but wouldn't want it as a daily.
The reason you think it has to little turn angel is because you don't counter-steer and lean the bike over. That is what bikes do. Just stop driving it like a car/truck…
Jesus, what a whiny review. You want a steady, boring bike, get something else. This bike is epic!
Absolutly love these bikes, thanks for the honest review. It does help put it in perspective.
If you own a motorcycle and are worried about cops and speed limits sell your motorcycle.
Sorry, the outro of the videos I just have to stop them early. So annoying, the skip button gets hit quickly. That might just be your intent.
Like the channel though.
On the fence about these two bikes! My ktm 1290 threw a crank at 38k last month and it is totaled. Trying to figure out a replacement!
What did you end up getting only cos I have a 1290 and about to get a v4 tuono
You come across as a whiner. You’re on a fabulous bike and you’re trying to explain why upper not having fun. Booooo 👎🏼
Highway riding, the entire time, and in the passing lane. Doesn’t do this review justice. A road glide is meant for that.
Not a super bike.
Perfect if you want a sporty naked. I have one. It is simply amazing. Compared to my MT-10, this is much sportier.
I still don't understand how this is considered a naked bike...
Flat bars not RSV4 clip-ons Tuono was one of the first Naked Sportbike in 2002 stripped down Aprilia Mille with no power reduction. If anything Aprilia set the scene of what a Super Naked is with the Gen2 & now the Hyper Naked Category with the 175hp V4 1100.
Takes it down twisty road but doesn’t actually push the bike by any means lol
The bike looks nice but even if I was young again I wouldn't get it. I personally love the sound of an inline 4 so much more. Not sure how you call that a naked, but if going with naked the supercharge Kawasaki would have my attention. After having a bike with a full fairing I couldn't ever see buying naked again if I wanted to go fast for very long though. Hayabusa would be my choice for a relatively comfortable, relatively fast bike a person could ride fast all day long, and that sounds great (in my humble opinion).
You clearly have not ridden the TV4 yet 😀
@@N0t4v41l4ble at 70 years old my old 1100 Katana's ergonomics are hard enough on me. 🤣
Personally I hear zomboys "battlefields" every time I get on my tuono lol.
I love my Tuono V4. Best bike I've ever ridden. And that V4 sound is intoxicating but yeah it can be a lil too much sometimes.
After owning one for 3 years. I traded my Aprilia in for a BMW S1000RR. I wanted something easier to ride fast on the track. The Aprilia was very hard to ride fast. When it comes to ergos, they are the same. The tuono being so aggressive and the s1k being so relaxed, I found them to be very similar.
wait what? i thought 100% the s1k would be more aggresive ergo than the tuono
Why not upgrading to the rsv4 ?
@@sennaracinglegend1438 something different an RSV4 is just more of the same
@@tjpfz6 no not at all. It’s a very similar ride
No no no... the Tuono is a supernaked streetbike. Want a trackbike ? Get a racebike (S1KRR whatever). Ergos are the same?? The Tuono has straight bars (?) Ebvry bike reviewer on the planet rates it as the best motor best chassis best suspension in one package you can buy. Hard to ride fast?? Sure, if you're coming off a CRF-250 :) Otherwise you just hang on and yell "Wee!!) as you run down everything on the horizon ... ok I'm based. Most fun I have ever had with a motorcycle....
If this is the bike version of Amon Amarth's 'Raven's Flight', which bike would Strapping Young Lad's 'Shitstorm' be?
Definitely the KTM 1290 SuperDuke R. Although, it might be more in line with SYL's "Forcefed" than "Shitstorm."
Spite! Listen to Svanrand by Heilung and berserkir by Danheim! I beg of you!
I love the powerbronze I put on mine and felt like I got much better wind protection.
Agree, I put it on the base model to get rid of the square GS look ugliness ;-)
Can you do a review with the non-factory model? thanks!
Agree I've got the '21 base model but do have mods planned.
Basically same bike, everything you hear for one applies to the other.
It does have a bigger passenger seat than the factory
@@iTxip and higher bars, and different gearing, and a larger windscreen, and little wind deflectors, and lower passenger pegs, and better fuel economy, and comes in a choice of two colours, and has grab handles, and costs almost 15% less , and has adjustable Sachs Suspension. But yeah its basically the same bike.
@@DukeOfTwist Really?? Shit, I was thinking on mine (15-16 model) and the difference was just supension and looks. Went for the factory because there was not a huge price difference (also got a free street legal akrapovic in the deal, sounds fantastic) and I fell in love with it.
@@DukeOfTwist its actually pretty cool that they now make the factory a bit more agressive and the base model a bit more sport-touring.
My dream garage would have an Aprilia Tuono V4, Ducati Diavel 1260-S and probably a custom SUMO of some sort.
Love the minimal screen. The wind reminds you has fast you are going. It also clears your visor better when it’s misted.
hello!
Just ride 2.5 hours home in 30 degree weather to bring my Tuono 660 home. I've wanted a RS660 since you guys first got one, but I realized the Tuono is more comfortable. Thank you!
I don't get how that's a naked bike. It's quite literally not naked
What’s more comfortable for 5-11 to 6ft tall this or mt10 sp?
Exactly described how a Tuono rides. Best Tuono video on RUclips. I think the same thing when I sit on my Tuono. It's best to have a second bike for the relaxed tours.
Can we get this dude on a triumph Rocket S Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This looked wayyy to fast for that little road. lol 35-60 in a tiny throttle crack
Whats the engine heat like? I'm on a Panigale V4 now and its..toasty
Did that thing burn a quart of oil every few weeks like mine does?
Super duke GT is perfect I just reviewed it on
My channel 😊
I had a 2013 Tuono V4 and I share a lot of your sentiments on it. It was such an aggressive bike that always wanted to run. I loved it but I recently "downgraded" to a Shiver 900 which is a better daily bike for me at this point.
Did spite lose weight? He looks great!
No regrets for having a 2017 tuono V4 i tend to go on backroads to use the power (like 50%)
Then buy a 400cc scooter, easy. Great review though
