Hi Scott as always a well thought out and communicated review. I'm 64 years old and have been riding Aprilia Tuono's since 2008. My2020 RR Tuono is a magnificent bike. I have ridden H2's and KTM 1290's and while in a straight line they have more power nothing matches the handling and Torque the sound and pure feel that the Tuono provides. Also your never too old to ride the bike of your dreams just be smart about how and where you ride
I collected my Tuono V4 in Glacier White here in the UK last week from Kevin @Brighton Moto. It is superb, and aged 53 the bike is comfortable, smooth, super fast and looks just fantastic.
I sold my last gen Speed Triple RS and picked up the base model Tuono V4 last year. The grunt it has and the sound it makes keep a smile on my face every time I take it for a spin.
Welcome to the Ape family!
Casually passes an old man on the side of the road @8:50. Never look back! At 59 years old, I just bought a Tuono and love it. Great video, thank You.
Yes, the extra inch will help. Thanks for a great report. I ride an MT-10. The acceleration, braking, and turning are incredible and I love it. But I’m going to add a much slower bike to my stable. These motors in the super nakeds are not happy at slower speeds, and if you rev them out, you are breaking the law from 2nd on up.
Yea so true. Supernakeds are made for track days, if I was going to start doing track days again, this would be the first bike I look at.
take care,
Scott
Another great review. Thanks Scott. I'm hoping to get a test ride on one now that spring is here!
"Thanks" Scott, for the FINE review ...... Makes EVERY rider want to "experience" a ride on one !!!!! 😁😎👌👍👍👍 (Rick from Massachusetts, USA )
Great review, Thanks! 👍
I love Aprilias. Thanks for the great vid!
As you were whacking the throttle open I think your laugh sums it up well ! What a sweet bike. If I could splurge for a 2nd bike, at this stage of my life the 660 Tuono probably suits me better. Nice review.
Hi Scott, like and Subscribed 👋🏍️
I just purchased one, the 2022 model in ultra dark, should be delivered in couple of days and I just can't wait to ride the bike in the mountains!
Excellent bike that noise and you could not stop laughing while riding it, means it is a joy.
I have a 2019 Tuono RR and love it. I’ve seen race track comparisons where the Aprilia beats bikes with much more HP like the Ducati. The Ape does a better job with getting the power on the asphalt; feels fully connected to the road. Thanks for the informative update!
wow what a hot looking machine... cheers V!
Finally mate I was waiting for you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💪💪💪💪💪🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
I'll need to build a bit of confidence on my 660 tuono before upgrading to this beast! Great vid as usual.
Brilliant review 👍😉
I love the whine sound. It sounds premium.
Thank you for the lesson in the correct way to pronounce the word “Ohlins”.. most people here in the USA get it wrong. Me included. Great production value on your video. Great information. And fun to watch. Keep up the great work👍
Your review makes it easier to decide coming from 36 years of Harleys at 66 looking for a change not ready to start test rides yet.
Now that’s more like it Scott
Great review. Great bike. 👍
One of the most beautiful bikes out there
Great review
Nice video Scott. I have just bought a new 2022 Standard 1100 V4 Tuono as I find the higher bars make the riding position [for me] much more comfortable. I reach the grand old age of 60 this year and my old wrists will appreciate the extra comfort of the raised bars. Totally agree that this is still the top super naked and it continues to win nearly all the super naked shootouts. Take care Scott and ride safe.
I totally agree, if I got one, it'd be the standard for those same reasons 👍😁
That was a great video.
What a pretty motorcycle!
Many thanks! I'll go see....
Great review. I would like to see Honda Fireblade 1K or any other litre class in your next analysis
Great review. I actually bought the "standard" 2021 Tuono V4. I wonder if you would like the slightly raised handlebars on that model better?
Yea, I do, sat on one the other day and it's a lot better for the lower back. :)
I own the new V4 Factory- just a smile machine that handles like a dream and mixing the best sounding engine on earth,,,,,what’s NOT to like?
When a reviewer breaks out in laughter you know it’s a great bike.
Hi Scott I do like the bike a lot and it is still on my radar for next year sort to speak. I have seen some reviews on the non factory version wondering if you could take that one for a spin .BTW I’ve just watched your review on SF V2 very nice take care Jiri Brisbane
Thank you!
I've done the RR in 2020, link below 😁
czcams.com/video/NBmScgAA9Qk/video.html
Thanks.
Great video, Scot. There is truth to your statement. I'm 60yrs old, and I've put 10k miles on mine. Every time I get on it I pray that this not the day I get pulled over by Law Enforcement. Lol.
Great review and beautiful bike. I still prefer the previous model look so. 2017 being my favorite.
This bike really makes me wish I had a nearby by Aprilia service center. I'd own one if I didn't have to worry about shipping the bike out of state for any repairs.
Same reason why I don't have one. I wanted the standard Tuono V4 but the Aprilia dealer near me has awful reviews. I just couldn't risk the after-purchase care on such a bad dealer.
nice vid thanks
Oh, that bike is magnificent. If I was looking to replace my 19 Triumph Speed Triple RS, that'd be the first one I'd consider. Outstanding.
Yea, me too. If I ever get a supernaked again, it'd be this but just with the higher handle bars and windshield. 😁👍
do not get rid of the triple. nothing else comes close to it. i’m about to drop more than what i paid for it originally because i miss it so much. tuono is a ridiculous machine but the striple is such a nice package.
@@salvadorvega9834 I’ll take the ridiculous machine, will buy one tomorrow.
Thanks for the video review 👍
I never knew you were too old for a bike. I thought that if you have already determined thats the bike you want - then the rest is history! Its never prevented me from buying and riding any bike I want (BTW I am 59) 😀
Agreed! The thumb nail is just click bait 😁😒 But to a certain extent I did feel a little old on this bike, like it was no longer built for me and what that leads me to this conclusion is my lower back and arthritics in my neck. Which I didn't have problems with until a few years ago and at 55yrs old I'm right behind you. I'd still own a bike like this no problem, I just would not put on as many miles on it as when I was younger.
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve
Thanks for the reply. Yes my current ride is the Suzuki Hayabusa and the 2019 Suzuki Katana. I must admit the Hayabusa with the more aggressive riding position is becoming a little harder to handle especially on longer rides. I also suffer from mild back pain and arthritis so that doesnt help, but riding makes me feel young and alive, so that alleviates the negatives!
Love the way you present your videos, the scenery there in Germany 🇩🇪looks terrific, it is a country I plan to visit before I check out!
Thanks again and regards from “Downunder” Australia 🇦🇺
Jeff
I am also 55 years old, and carrying some injuries from mountain bike race crashed, including wrist and shoulder injuries. My 18s1000r is “ok” and from my test ride of the Tuono (hot contender as a replacement) slightly less Ok. The non- Factory version might be slightly better…tempted.
Scott I saw you clips from riding in the alps, and yes it looks like it is not bike for you :)
Great review as ususal, even though this time I tend to disagree. Tested this one along with the Triumph and the KTM and eventually picked up the Superduke last year. I've been so in love with that bike that I ended up uprgrading to the Evo, which I got last month. I'd say that even the sheer figures you displayed seem to support this conclusion, if one looks at power and torque and their respective RPM. Cheers ✌
Buying a supernaked is like picking a girl friend. It's got very little to do with the numbers and everything to do with what the heart wants 😁👍 But yea, I owned a 2015 KTM 1290 SDR for 5 years, it's the most fun I've had on a two wheels and still being legal...well...most of the time legal 🙄
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve 😅 I cannot disagree with that, it’s first of all an emotional affair and that’s also what your content transmits. Thanks for having taken the to reply. ✌️
Sorry, Mr., Apparently I am too dumb to get your real name behind these quite entertaining and well technically backed up information on some real iron on wheels.
"Every day is a good day, mate, watching some of your stuff"! Keep at it!
And judging from you not holding back laughter taking that colorful moto for a ride, it certainly is plenty of fun.
But to me, from the front with all the "candy" fairing and the tiny shield, ain't not a proper naked, thus agreeing with the other commentator.
When the roll-out starts, please check out the Guzzi v100, a real heart-stopper! All the best, be safe, Torsten (Germany)
Second this, so many of us are excited to content on the Mandello!
love the looks and the performance...... reliability ......ehhhh not sure I'd be willing to gamble my money on that.
They're pretty reliable based on my research, moreso than KTM for example, less so than BMW.
I've had 4 Aprilia's and 4 Ducati's. Never had any issues with any of them.
BMW has been the worst reliable bike I have ever owned.
@@markwoolard3315 Glad you had a good experience...Aprilia and KTM have earned their reputation for a reason.. I have not owned either. Dealer network is likely the biggest draw back in Atlantic Canada.
They are as reliable as any other brand.
I just realized that I was beginning to keep my drives short with my beast. I want something with more comfort and something that can do more than just go ballistic fast. Collecting my ZH2 in 3 weeks. Still exciting but that bike is more versatile, more refined and with japanese reability.
hi Scott how easy it is to find neutral on this new model i had the 2018 factory i had horrible experience with it specially on stop lights in city.I would most definitely buy it again as soon as the neutral issue is resolved
It was not a problem for me on the normal last year or on this one this year. So, maybe they've fixed it 🤷♂️😁
I like your reviews...please try to ride the CFMOTO 800MT and give us feedback!
I have ordered it and waitingtoreceive by June...so I am very curious on you review and your opinion as you say..."overall"😉
Excellent review! Seems like everyone in the M.C. community is always yelling over hard rock, hyper excited, or British!
I’ve been in the market for a new bike this last year and The Tuono was very hard to pass up!
It’s comfortable, has enough ferrying, and power.. 🤔Power, it’s still in the too much for the street category, and as this will be my third bike in the garage next to a Diavel and 996, I decided to go full on, useless, superbike Panigale V4S! If I were practical,🤷♂️ or could only have one bike, The Aprilia Tuono 1100 Factory, for sure would be THE BIKE..
Your laugh says it all !! I used to own a Kawasaki ZRX1200R. Can't help but wonder how good it would be if they had kept developing it to this day. I think you would have that same laugh. What do you think?
Yea, probably. Rode one a long time ago, had a lot of fun on it!
take care,
Scott
Hi Scott, while visiting my sister in Paderborn, I’ll drop by Motorrad Berlange to at least seat on a Tuono. I really like the base model with the more relaxed ergonomics. As I also saw your test ride of the Kawasaki Ninja 1000sx, may I ask you how both bikes compare? Could you really tour on a Tuono V4 as you can on the Kawa? Kind regards
Hi, yea, great guys at Berlage, they usually have a Tuono on demo there, so call ahead and take one for a test ride. Sorry, but I've never been on a 1000SX, so I can't give an honest compare. But you can tour on the Tuono, maybe just an overnight trip but really not longer, at least I wouldn't.
take care,
Scott
👍👍👍
"1" makes a difference, ask any women" .. that was the most memerable quote in this review
Freakin gorgeous.
What do you prefer? 4 cilyndre in line or in V....
It really depends on the application in the bike. For example, I love the MT-10 motor but not the S1000R motor BUT both are 4cyl in-line. Generally don't like Harley V-twins but do love Indian, Moto Guzzi V-twins and Aprilia & Ducati V-4s...and Honda's when they made a V-4, so much so that I owned the VFR800 for a period of time.
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve thank you a lot
How does this bike compare to the Triumph 1200 speed triple RS.
Hi, well, they are very very close, both are at the top of their class on a track day and going fast on the street. The RS is a little lighter and "newer" but the Tuono has that V4 that is hard to beat.
take care,
Scott
How old are you? I don’t think you’re too old regardless. Though I appreciate it’s FAR from a daily rider.
Where is the passenger seat ?
Aren’t the quick shifters on triumph extremely slow?
How can that be any better than the Japanese?
Well, in my experience, the Japanese generally are slower than Aprilia, BMW, Triumph, KTM, specifically - supernakeds. I've not ridden enough Ducati's to have an opinion (over-all on Ducati), hope to change that in the next month though. Been on several Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha but not very many Suzuki (with QS), so I can only say that with the exception of Suzuki due to lack of experience. BMW really depends on the motor, in-line 4's have great QS but boxer or parallel twins = very slow.
What's your experience with QS on Triumph? Have you tried the RS, speed or street? It's very fast, slick & smooth.
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve
I’ve ridden almost all of the brands’ naked except for MV. Currently owning a BMW R1250R(2019) and yamaha XSR900(2022), my brother owns a Ducati Supersport 950s,(2020). I’ve test ridden the speed triple 1200 RS in the sports mode, but the QS upshift seems so slow its like an automatic box from a car. I’m not sure if it’s changeable in the menu. And yes, I agree it is smooth😅
The downshift is faster but still on the slow side IMO, maybe I’m just not reving it enough.
Boxer engine’s QS upshift is fast but very rough and needs to be around the red line to work good. Downshift is also fast but still rough.
Ducati, Yamaha are smooth and fast IMO.
Kawasaki only ridden the small zx250r, which was also smooth and fast.
Honda and Suzuki never ridden a bike with QS.
Just personal experience BTW
Your too old when you can no longer twist the throttle! Fast and sexy as hell, cool review. Cheers.
Nice toy to have a play on!
Geez, I didn’t realize the Triumph three cylinder has more horsepower and torque than the Aprilia.
I always hear about how getting parts from Aprilia is an awful experience, owners waiting months, even losing a riding season. Also, maintenance intervals that are torture. I've yet to hear a reviewer talk about these things with Aprilia... It would be refreshing to hear a real verdict vs off the showroom floor.
Well, if you'd like to buy me one, I promise I'd do a monthly review of all the issues that I find 👍🙄😁🤣
@@NothingToProve hahaha I understand, not taking a shot at ya, but everyone says the Aprilia Tuono is the best, but so many owners report significant issues over normal length of ownership that to me don't equal best.
@@chadgruver4423 Yea, I know your not 👍👍😁😁 I've heard that too but until someone gives me one or Aprilia gives me one, I can't answer the "long-term" reliability question, sigh, I wish I could.
I've owned 4 Aprilia's. 3 of them were Tuono's. Never had any issues with any of them. Parts are easy to get (before covid) but you really dont need much but oil and filters.
@@markwoolard3315 good to hear, I hear and read many more that have different experiences. Before and during Covid. I have a riding acquaintance who says his Aprilia experience is like yours, but he has 9 bikes and hasn't had an Aprilia ever with more than 5k miles. So that doesn't really count. I hope you have put some sizable miles on each of yours behind your testimony, maybe 5-10k a year each, keeping them 3-5 years?
I almost get the impression you like this bike.
Still no blipper? Dude!
I ride a 2017 all Black 1290 Superduke with full akra and i am 62 its perfect even at only 5ft 7in, having moved up from the 2015 version, just don't like the new 2020 version style at all, waiting to see the mk4 in future. but the aprilia its not a naked in my opinion.
Well, once you understand the Tuono started the supernaked group over a decade ago, then one by one the other OEMs got on board, you will probably come around to the understand that it is a supernaked...just not naked.
Truth be told I don't think it's naked either but it is a supernaked. An RSV4 stripped down with higher bars.
take care,
Scott
I test rode a tuono when I accepted that my Ducati 1299s was as “a bit much for the road”, as well as a superduke and Ducati street fighter v4. I just happened to take out a HD Softail Slim out and after 100 yards on the road I knew this was what was going to be in my garage. Best decision I’ve made, love riding a motorbike that I can ride on the road without worrying about my licence
Too old to do what you like or want to have FUN?
I don't believe that should apply to anything whilst still breathing.
AMEN .......
I am to big for it 😭😭😭
Donc passé un certain âge, plus de plaisirs en raison du "quand diras t'on" attend le trépas. Assez réducteur ce type de philosophe, même si on comprend le côté humour lié à la condition physique, mais dés lors on peut aussi prendre en compte le fait que plus jeune on à moins de moyens que plus âgés, mais à mon sens il faut laisser les gens vivent leur vie en dépit de leur tranche d'âge plutôt qu'à vouloir sectoriser par tranches démographique. Et cela vaut pour énormément d'autres sujets.
Love these bikes but not sure how anyone can afford them.
I do like rice with my Ulhins
Just a pity it does not look like a naked at all... KTM SuperDuke R... that is how a naked looks...
Yea, so true...
Only thing is its not a naked
The Tuono is a great bike but I'd much rather prefer the MT10 for sport touring. Yamaha have got The ergonomics right whereas the Aprilia is too cramped!
Yea, 1290SDR and MT10 have the best ergo's of all the supernakeds. 👍
the 2020 has a faster magneti marelli cpu
Sir it’s not ewwlins it’s oLenz I have watched a CZcams video summarizing a written summary of the Wikipedia page about Germany so I am a bit of an expert on the subject matter and it would behoove you to take note of the good deed I’ve bestowed upon you in sharing my wisdom with you. On day you too may come to be formally educated on Germany/German and then you’ll understand. Ohlins is German and I know this because of the little tattoo on the top of the O in ohlins, which is only done in German because of Hitlers distaste for the overweight letter that is O. He had planned to send it and a few other letters to the camps but he ran out of time and resources toward the end of the war. I know this because I saw a CZcams short about…well you know what I’m going to say.
Yea I was trying to make you laugh that’s all
I thought Mr Rogers was dead.
O -Lins not oooh Lins rofl
Yea, I guess I pronounce it the German way and not the English way. But he is from Sweden with a German name, so I wonder how Mr. Öhlins pronounces it.
Well my old German teacher told us an umlaut 'O' was pronounced more like 'er', so 'er-lins'. But it's a Swedish name isn't it, so goodness knows 😁
Ask any woman 😂👍
LOL .... Mine said "EVERY INCH counts" ..... 🤣🤣🤣😂😁😎
expensive
And still no fuel gauge!!Lol
It does have a fuel gauge. The RSV4 doesn't.
Lol doesn’t make any difference 1 inch ask any woman😂😂😂👍
😂😂an inch make a difference ask any woman
Where can I purchase that dark smoke screen windscreen? Been looking far and wide! Thx
That's the way the Factory comes from the factory 😁 So you can probably order it from your dealer. Also, MRA makes a great after market screen for this in clear/smoke/black too. Just google "mra windshield", put in your model and they will show you the two screens sizes and then colors.
take care,
Scott
You are not too old, Scott (I recognized the boy in your voice (ask any woman whahaa!) ), but you are too spoiled by comfortable bikes! Nice review however. Hope you will do the Tuareg 660 too one of these days!
Yea, just havin' some fun with you guys :)
Me too, it's supposed to be here in April...and it's April now...but bike? Where is it, don't see it :(
