Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory 2021

The engine of the Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory gains in precision due to the change to Euro5 conformity, but remains unchanged in essence - a potent fellow that wants to be revved! The handling also remains sporty and demanding, while the others can take it easy. The electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension works excellently and the electronics package is state-of-the-art. In terms of looks, the new Tuono V4 1100 Factory is now based on the small Tuono 660, especially the front with the raised LED daytime running lights looks gorgeous. All in all, a great evolution of an already good motorbike.

Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory 2020

Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory 2020

With its cubic capacity of 1,077 cc, it does not fit into any common racing regulations, but for ambitious hobby racers in particular, the expanded cubic capacity brings with it even better drivability. Only the best of the best was used for the chassis. The latest generation of the electronic Öhlins suspension is fitted to the tried and tested aluminium bridge frame. This worked perfectly in our test, but tended to be quite hard for country roads. When it comes to braking performance, you can rely on the noble Brembo Stylema calipers, which bite into a 330 mm double disc at the front. Well-dosed, incredibly accurate and enormously stable even on the racetrack - that's pleasing. The ergonomics are very compact. With a height of 845 mm, you sit quite high on the bike. The handlebar stubs therefore seem comparatively low. A lot of pressure on the front wheel, perfect for the race track. All in all, the Aprilia with its high-quality, racing-oriented chassis and aggressive seating position always delivers crystal-clear feedback and terrific stability in every situation. Perfect basis for trackdays or even for a racetrack conversion.
