Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory 2021

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.

accessible handling

fully adjustable and stable chassis

high quality standard tyres

acceptable fuel consumption.

Full equipment wants to be paid for
