Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Aprilia Tuono 660 2021
The Tuono delivers on the bends what the name promises. The sporty naked bike rides precisely and you enjoy the sporty corner chase. At the exit of the bend, however, one wishes for more emotion and adrenaline. The sporty expectation is naturally also created by the Tuono's racy appearance and cheeky demeanour. But this expectation is unfortunately not quite fulfilled in the saddle.
Triumph Street Triple 765 RS 2017
The top model among the Street Triples fully deserves the designation. Sportier in all respects than the R version, the RS presents itself on the country road as a fun machine that has few opponents to fear. Trackdays on the racetrack are also an issue, especially since the engine is very sharp, the Brembo brakes are super-sporty and the suspension with the Öhlins damper is wonderfully precise. The handling is a stunner anyway, the Street Triple is still the lightest in its class. The standard quickshifter further consolidates the position of the top model.
