That thing looks so much better than the old model. Congratulations for getting this first AGAIN. It is so much better than the sanitised brochure readers stuff mate. Real opinions from a real rider, delivered in a no nonsense way! They should all take your approach David. Bravo 👏🏻
Thanks David. That means a lot and I appreciate your support 🙏
I have a 2016 factory, i actually think the 2016 looks alot better , i quite like the black and red tho , but the purple not a fan of .. problem i have with my bike is the fueling and screen is outdated .. is there a good fix for that ? Enjoyed the vid !
@@Harnosharn thanks mate. You need to get it mapped correctly on a Dyno to help with the fuelling
@@Harnosharn you're not alone harry, I like my 2020 much better than the new one. The new model has a bucktooth.
Fuel gauge is reason enough to upgrade from my 2019 Tuono Factory! Fantastic video!
Hahah I know right!
Haha. True that. A ride day here through the twisters can be 180kms between gas stations. I guess it just ads some comfort.
Lol ... yes if I take the Tuono I HAVE TO set the trip to zero and make a mental note of nearest garage
@@user-hf8ie8mf3n 😂😂😂👍🏻
@@user-hf8ie8mf3n it’ll only reinforce 90 mile fill ups 😬 🙈
This is one of the best bike review I have seen on UA-cam. Very fun and very precise analysis of the bike's qualities & negatives. Memorable. You rock 👍💗
Thanks for that mate. Very humbled to get such nice comments.
Having owned 3 RSV4’s and a Tuono in the past I didn’t think I would be interested again but this thing looks incredible, I think a test ride is on the cards.
Please trust me mate. Ride the thing. It’s so much better than the ‘20 model.
About to get my third...they are intoxicating.
@@ApriliaRacer14 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 nice one mate
What do you think about the tuono and rsv4? Do you prefer tuono or rsv4?
Mate you made me do it! I've just ordered one. Cannot wait to ride this beauty man!! Kid inside me couldn't be more happy.
Congratulations mate! Super happy for you. What a bike 🥰
First again David!!! Some of these manufacturers really need to start to take notice of you with the amount of bikes you are selling for them!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Thanks mate appreciate the support 🙏
You're right, the "walking back to the bike in a petrol station" test is a proper test that every bike needs to pass before purchase. Another great vid!
Thank you mate. Really appreciate it 🙏
thank you Dave i have now picked up my new toy 2021 APRILIA TUONO V4 1100 FACTORY what a machine you dead right love it....
Thanks mate congratulations 🎉 what a bike!!!
Hi and thanks for the review 😊
When I first saw it I was jealous. My 2021 was not delivered yet and I could only watch your video repeatedly. Now when I'll got nearly 1000 km on it (I'm swedish). I can just confirm all you're statements. Compared to my "old" 2017 which was my best bike ever. This seems like a other bike with more power! As you said; test or buy it if you can. You will not regret any of it.
Regards Mazza
Thanks for watching and congratulations on your amazing bike!!!
Amazing review David. Just what I was waiting for! This is the bike that does it all and it now looks beautiful too!!
Thanks Holly! Completely agree it’s brilliant!
Just brought my tuono factory ultra dark today from via moto Sheffield, cannot wait to pick it up in the new year
Congratulations my man
Bought this as a second bike to my ZZR1400. The ZZR hasnt been used since I got the Tuono, love it! Anyone want to buy a 2012 ZZR lol.
Haha good man am glad you like it.
Great review, thank you for your time and efforts. One comment/question regarding comfort - i found the seat to be hard as a piece of plywood when i sat on it in the showroom - you didn't feel its too firm?
What a review , had a 16 Tuono and sold it recently now getting ready to buy this one ✔️
Thanks again!!
Thanks. Did you buy it?
Great review mate, definitely going to put one of these in the garage this year, love the enthusiasm you showed throughout the vid, honest reviews are always the best….I recently bought an 890 r after watching Chris on Bike world, will be buying one of these because of your review, hope the manufacturers are giving you guys the credit for sales you deserve
Thanks mate. Just do it because it’s fun to me
An excellent, informative review by a "normal" (as in non-race inspired) rider - many thanks David ! So glad you liked the bike - I have the 2016 Factory, so massively interesting to me to see what you thought about it - Cheers !
Thanks Neil. Appreciate you taking the time to say something positive. Glad you liked it 🥰
and do you stay with your old one or switch? i have the same bike like you and think about it too.
Still can't decide if this is the one for me or it's the RSV4 factory. You seemed to have equal admiration for them both. Love all your reviews though, they are informative and unbiased. A cheeky giggle when you're having fun on a bike says way more than words could ever do. I'm fairly local to Sheffield so know most of the roads you ride on. I guess the only way to properly decide is to speak to Mark at Via Moto and take them both out for myself.
You’ve hit the nail on the head. Listening to reviews is one thing but you will know when you ride them which is right. Depends on your individual use case and circumstances. What I can say is either bike is about the best you can buy in the category...
Thanks for this great review. I just test rode one today, looks even better in the flesh; to me, one of the best looking bikes ever; as you said on the video, super smooth fuelling, chasis provides confidence, dashboard also much improved, however, I wasn't expecting to say a big BUT; that this this bike is so smooth and easy to ride, I wonder if the Euro5 compliance has driven out some of the character ? Giving the keys back didn't seem the ordeal I thought it would be and getting back on my 2019 V4 Touno, with the roar and bark of the Akra, the slightly glitchey 1st and 2nd gear and the agression and drama of the engine pull... all still on the older 2019 model, still seemed to bring an equally childlike pure joy; so I have to ask myself; is the 2021 V4 Tuono, as incredible as it is, really worth the extra full price, worth it to trade in the current God of Thunder ?
Thanks for watching and comments mate. Bikes are all about what makes us smile it’s that simple 🙏
Great review. Thanks enjoyed that👍
Enjoying my 16 Tuono Factory, they just keep improving it 🙏
Thanks Paul. Appreciate it mate. It’s a hell of a bike. They all are.
I've got the 2023 Time Attack version with the Aprilia Race Map & the Akra. Jeez the noise is absolutely incredible
I've put bar risers on mines and improves comfort for me
My only gripe is tank range
Bar risers are a good idea.
@@mostlymotorbikes Make a big difference and also put the Aprilia touring screen on it, so its basically like the touring version but a Factory LOL - best of both worlds - Just about to do a 2 weeks Euro tour on it as my SDGT is off the road with a sensor error
Great Review...I'm 6'3" and it sounds like its more comfortable...even the non-factory looks great. And they FINALLY added the all important gas gauge.
Thank you. I know. 2021 and we are impressed with a fuel gauge 😂😂😂 enjoy it :)
David. Thanks for this. Couple of interesting points on this. There are a few nice upgrades here vs the 20. I’ve got a 20 factory. It cost 14k with akra from Via moto. You are right, they are great and Gary is spot on.
I agree the smoother fuelling and larger fuel opening would be welcome, but to be fair not a biggie. Fuel gauge, again, handy but not a huge issue at all as you just use your trip.
Looks wise. Subjective. But from the pictures and videos I’ve seen, I disagree hugely on looks. LEDs are welcome, but 18 quid gets a conversion on the older version, albeit not as designed looks wise but changes the look dramatically. I think it looks generic and cheap. But, again, in the flesh is key. The 20 model looks awful in photos but stunning in the flesh. To say the 20 is ugly, I think is entirely wrong to be honest. So many folk stare at mine when it’s parked up and comment on it.
The seating potion is disappointing as the more super bike stance than others was the reason I, and many, went for it. A unique aspect of the bike that stood it apart from the competition, and I love it. Certainly for a single bike ownership. So, again, I disagree with you on that but of course personal preference.
And the crunch ........£18,199 for 21 vs £13,99 for the 20 currently, and no akra? So 5k difference.
I’m curious now to ride this to see for myself. So what I’ll do is a back to back video comparison. You do seem to love this bike....I do need to be honest, I was really surprised at how negative you were in your MY20 review. It was the opposite to almost every other reviews on it. So I wonder if there is a personal bias in your review....of the 21 model?
But, yes some nice newer touches for sure on the 21 that would be nice to have. But, I’m not buying one.....well, not yet..lol.
Now, watch me do a side by side comparison and then part x mine in for the 21...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mate it’s all relative and that’s why I always say, don’t listen to me go and ride it and look at it yourself. What I want from a super naked, already owning a ‘20 RSV4 track bike and ‘21 Panigale will be different to someone maybe how just wants one bike to do it all. I get that. Give it a whirl. I loved the ‘20 model for what it is, just not what I wanted. Looks...well, look at my ugly face. Who am I to judge looks 😂😂😂
Oh just to say too as far as personal bias. One thing you can guarantee on my channel is a ALWAYS say exactly what I think, whether people like it or not. I have no bias, am not sponsored to say anything and what you see from me is what you get. Oh and the price. You’re a man of the world. You know the price is NEVER the price ;)
Don't blame me if the wife see's you on a track day and gives ya a bollocking for swapping my 2020 out for one a these 🤣top vid again mate 👌
😂😂 do it pal
Been waiting for decent info on this bike and there you are with a fab first test (as usual). David you are a bad, bad man. I now have to work out how to trade in my 2019 Tuono Factory for one of these. Everything you highlighted as improvements are things you live with on the old one. Just have to order one now. Keep up the quality work. Oh and for those in the threads not wanting the electronic suspension versions. Big mistake. The Ohlins 2.0 is just fantastic over the manual version. I have had both. Believe me, if you can afford the Factory model, go for it the difference is chalk and cheese. Great bike, great vids, love the content but my wallet hates you.
Thanks so much Bob for the positive feedback I really appreciate it 🥰 you only have one life mate 🤗
Think your review has sealed the deal for me 👌
Good pal glad it helped!
@@mostlymotorbikes Only thing that's doing my head in is the new RSV4 RR is cheaper than this.
@@zxgeorger it’s a different bike though. Gotta make your mind up what you need...
Hi, at the same point myself..ktm vs tuono vs streetfighter. Test rode all 3..still can't decide !! What made you go for the KTM ? Love your videos mate 👍
Thanks pal. Just because I already had the RSV4 and the KTM was just a bit more bonkers 😂 honestly the tuono is the better bike though.
New to street bikes but not motorcycles....890 R has been my first for 6 months
This APRILIA is the bike I believe would cover just about anything you could want....and that includes losing your license, lol
After the duke it will be my bike of choice....have quite a few Aprilia dealerships nearby as well...
You can’t go wrong mate.
Gave back my 2016 Tuono Factory last autumn and of course I made up my mind whether to wait for the Euro5. But 5000€ difference was a good argument to buy the "old" modell again. It's a great machine, too. Especially with the adaptive dumping now.
It’s an amazing bike pal. For me it was a bit too sporty a position, considering I already own two dedicated sports bikes. I get though that if you only have one bike that’s possibly a positive feature.
@@mostlymotorbikes No.. I also own a Tuono V2 RR, KTM690R Enduro, Honda XBR, Mash TT40. Hope that Corona stops soon and I can travel to the mountains to Italy soon again. So I abuse the Tuonos for travel, too. ;) The V2 has 85000km now.
That fuel gauge is a breath of fresh air. Hope they'd bring the Tuono V4 Factory here in the Philippines.
I hope they do for you too mate. Everyone should be ave to enjoy
I fuelgage? Nonsense. Fuel the bike set the trip and around 180km look for a petrolstation. Most fuelgages usually sucks anyway.
@@srtspeedy4983 haha old school style
Great review. This thing just looks beautiful now. Lovely paint scheme as well although Aprilia should offer at least 2 colour schemes on it. It seems like they have done what was needed to keep it at the top of the hyper naked class. One thing I will say is the Tuono makes more low and mid range torque than the Streetfighter V4 which should make it a better road bike. It will be interesting to see how this bike compares to the all new Triumph 1200 Speed Triple. That bike could be the Tuono's biggest rival looking at the spec. Take care mate and ride safe.
Thanks matey appreciate it. Yea good point on the Triumph. It’s interesting because that way the Tuono is geared too along with that torque really helps on the road and the low mid acceleration is literally ridiculous!!!
Got a2018 tuono factory and what a tool amazing bike 👌😍
Good work pal
New Tuono looks sick af!
I know. Completely agree 🙌🏼
Amazing Vid, I´m close to pull the trigger;)
One question that nobody could answer me until now:
Is it possible to use the nav function in connection with a smart phone as on the 660 Model?
Cheers from Germany
Yes it is
@@mostlymotorbikes a pic or a small video would be awesome;)
Really nice review David!!! And no mud this time!! 😆😆
I 've watch all of your aprilia's video apparently... 😁
I have the very first one tv4r, and I think it's time for a change!!
I wish you could ride the RR version that I'm interesting to.... 😎
Keep rolling the wheel... 🤘💪
Thanks for the continued support 🙏
Fantastic review pal
Looks like they've addressed every issue with the old bike
That’s my opinion mate for sure 🙏
Hi Mostly Motorbikes, I like your reviews. I am on a CBR650F now, planning to upgrade to a 1000cc. I can only have 1 bike for all, for my weekend, road, twisties and track. Decided an Aprilia V4, should I get the Tuono or RSV4? Are both difficult to ride? How does RSV4 low end torque compared to Tuono? Thanks
They are both awesome. Tuono “feels” slightly faster lower down on the road due to shorter gearing than the RSV4 but on track the RSV4 would be a far better option. Ride them both and buy what makes you smile 😊
Another cracking review! 👍🏻
I much prefer the look of this to the new RSV4, I think purely down to the more subtle looking wings.
I can dream...
Thanks mate appreciate the support 🙏
I agree for sure wings look rubbish i think
Excellent review. Glad to finally see one. Just got rid of my 2013 last year. Contemplating a new one. Only problem is here in the US we aren’t slated to see them till June/July which is almost half way through my riding season. Unfortunately living in New England we have a short riding season.
That’s a shame! I hear you get really brutal winters over your way?
@@mostlymotorbikes we often do but thankfully the past few years have been on the milder side. Still way too cold to ride though so our bikes are usually parked from November to April on average.
@@HRCfan17 same here really. Mate. If we are lucky, might get warm for March.
@@mostlymotorbikes looks like you are getting them at the proper time then.
Great review buddy! Can't wait to tried this beauty out!
Do you know if there is a chance for oem heated grips this time? If not mayby some good aftermarket alternative?
I don’t think so mate but there is also a “touring “ version coming that I think does
The best bike I've ever ridden and not by a small margin, by miles. Chopped in my Monster 1200S the next weekend for a 2018 Tuono Factory with the map, Akra and all the good stuff. Comfortable, looks great, easy to ride and completely bonkers! What more could you want?
Agree with you mate. Amazing machine.
I am on the fence swapping my 2015 Monster 1200s for the v4 Factory. Is it worth sacrificing the monster for this? Are you still satified with the Tuono? I am ready to pull the trigger and need the extra push. Thank you.
Had a 16 and 17 TV4, and will hopefully get a 21 or 22, but at no point in time did I ever miss having a fuel gauge. I currently have two bikes that have fuel gauges, and numerous others that have had as well. Every single one of them was inaccurate because of the shape of the tank and the position of the float. 85 miles into your fuel tank and it's still showing you have a full tank, five miles later it's now showing you have half a tank. So unless this thing is as accurate as a fuel gauge on a car I don't see what all the hubbub is about. Especially considering that it has a low fuel light. All you really need to know is how many miles you have left once the light comes on, after having reset your trip meter at every fill-up.
It’s not a reason not to buy a bike. My ‘20 RSV4 1100 and ‘21 panigale don’t have them either. Just a mild irritation
Loved your review, like the bike, fun and addictive. Mmm, do I trade in my Ducati Supersport S ?!
So, for me it’s a choice of this Tuono V4 Factory or the latest Streetfighter V4. Is one better than the other for the same price ?
Tuono has electronic suspension, less power. Is the Ducati actually quicker or not much in it. Residuals, I would imagine Ducati would be better.
Comfort, brakes, fuel range, what’s best.
Decisions, decisions !
This bike is absolutely fantastic value if you're taking it on the track at *least* twice every week of your ownership so that you can experience its sensational cornering abilities well above 100 mph and its top speed of circa 180-190 mph. Well worth it.
You forgot to mention 3 mile wheelies 🙄
And kneedown on the A21
Another great, honest and down to earth review. Bike looks great and those guys down at Via Moto will definitely look after anyone interested. I bet the 'big boys' will be seething again getting beat to this 😄
Haha they need to get up earlier mate
A really good review, thanks for posting. Looks to be an absolute beast! Will you be reviewing the standard 2021 Tuono V4 too??
Maybe if I can get hold of one mate. To be honest most dealers won’t register a standard as a demo as they won’t sell many of them
Understandable I guess. Shame though as it looks the perfect do it all bike.
Thanks David! Another stunning real world review.
Appreciate that mate thank you 🙏
Yet again another fantastic review , just purchased the last model at a superb price and wished I never watched your vid lol , Fantastic
Haha sorry 😞 still an awesome bike matey. Don’t take advice on looks from a guy as ugly as me 😂😂
Great review! I wish they had a darker stealthier color though. Where are the front turn signals? Integrated in the LEDs?
Thank you mate. Yes they are.
I’m so torn between this and a SDR this video helps a lot I’ve subscribed well done nice job 👍
I bought the sdr. Don’t regret it.
Thank you
Great review and great to be the first one on the web, pretty much euro wide. I cancelled my order in favour of keeping my 2020 and my other bike(S) but does look pretty. Aprilia marketing needs a reboot though ... unless letting you tubers do their bidding is a strategy. Anyway, ace vid as usual.
I agree mate. It’s criminal that an idiot like he is first out to be honest. I’ll take it though 😂
Brilliant mate
Absolutely wonderful to see this
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks matey. What a bike!!!
I have been waiting for weeks for an English review. Not disappointed!Cant wait for them to land here down under! Can you elaborate on wind protection and for touring, any anchor points for soft luggage?? Thanks for the great review.
You’re welcome mate. As I understand it you can use the pillion seat and foot pegs but there is also a touring version being released. Wind protection isn’t as good as say a GS but it’s good enough for motorway speeds and then you get off the motorway....😈
@@mostlymotorbikes thanks for your reply! Sounds right up my alley!! I’m coming off at 2017 Ninja 1000 SX which in itself is relatively tourqey so can’t wait to get on one of these. The RR just doesn’t look as sweet with the screeen and pillion grab rails but makes more sense for touring. I guess there is too much attraction to EC2 Ohlins but then loose out on the touring aspects of the RR... hmmm, a hybrid of the two might work!! 🤣😜
@@rhyseee7721 you won’t regret it mate. Go for it.
You talked about rider comfort over the 2020 being so much better. I’m assuming with different tank shape and larger/roomier seat... but what about foot peg height/placement? I’m 6’3” and 220lbs and want to know how the new layout will work with my frame? I have plans of taking this bike and turning it into a all around bike. Track and road with adjustable rear sets and larger front wind screen for when touring. Not interested in the standard model as I want this color scheme and Ohlins suspension.
I’ve reserved this bike already and have money down on a ‘21 SF v4 S... but being in the US I’m not sure when I’ll be able to test the Aprilia.
You’re thoughts would be very helpful.
Foot pegs are great. Not too racey but you can move around on the bike. You can do big miles on this. If I had to choose the Aprilia every time. Such a better all round bike than anything
Awesome ty! I test rode the Streetfighter v4 s with the Akro exhaust and mapping today. Wow. That bike was pretty amazing. Very comfortable and revs for days. Wind was not a problem either.
Waiting impatiently for the Tuono to hit the shores of the US so I can do a proper compare before pulling the trigger.
Nice video, I was waiting for that one!
How would you compare it to the last Superduke if you don't mind me asking?
Better handling little bit more controllable much more usable everyday and faster
Another massive scoop and proper road review sir. Just curious, can you adjust the ride modes and Automatic suspension settings on the fly?? Regards from Sunny Perth AU :)
Yes you can mate
Great review, I’ve ordered mine from them. Should be here in next two weeks
Hows it going? Did you get it?
@@mostlymotorbikes yes absolutely love it
@@theboy001 awesome. Glad to hear ❤️
Goed review mate, i also tested it last week, and i am swapping my superduke 1290 2020 for this tuono factory
Thanks mate and congratulations 👏🏻
So... what was that makes turn in to aprilia?? Even though I haven't ride the SDR , they say that is a torque beast.....
In my TV4R I love the solid feeling that gives you in the road, and the drama of the engine!! (Power delivery, sound, sense)
What made you change your mind? I'm only asking as I went the other way from my '19 Tuono Factory to a Superduke. Just found the instant torque on the duke so much more fun and usable for road riding whereas the Aprilia was super fun but you always had to downshift to be in the right rev range to feel that power and torque.
@@fahadladha6938 I like the Aprilia more because of the chassis, handeling and mid punch, it is overal fasterbike and because i had the rsv4 2020 i wanted to go back to Aprilia
@@fahadladha6938 no need to downshift on the new one. Trust me.
Great review, thanks a lot mate! Shortens my waiting time until next week's delivery, super hyped.. :-)
Cheers Luke and you should be hyped!!! Absolute beast!! Congratulations
@@mostlymotorbikes Having picked up my 21 Factory on Friday I can now confirm that your review was absolutely spot on David! The old model was a great bike already. The new one is just f***ing brilliant, a major upgrade to its predecessor in so many aspects. The best bike I've ever ridden and owned for sure.
@@luckyluk3r thanks Luke! So happy you like your new bike!
Excellent review. Glad to finally see one yesterday at exeter, but Unfortunately living down here cornwall no demo to test ride yet, I've been struggling with this tuono V4 or New Ducati Streetfighter V4S which one would you buy real opinion please.....
Really tough one that mate. Tbh the Tuono is a better bike however I bought a Panigale recently when again, it’s not the best bike out there. Reason, it made me smile more and drool after it. It’s all personal preference and you wouldn’t be disappointed with either. Sorry that’s vague but it’s the best I can say.
@@mostlymotorbikes thanks m8 i have emailed Gary at Via Moto Sheffield
@@jsdomesticplumbing good man.
Very nice review! Does Factory equipped with forged wheels? Or with cast wheels like RR does?
Normal alloy wheels mate
Would like to hear your thoughts on a comparison with the Speed Triple 1200 RS, any chance of trying the Triumph soon?
Yes will try my best mate
Ordered one off Garry this week, can’t wait for next Saturday #DarkStealth #Akrapovic
How you getting on with it?
Hello, great review man! What about the lean angle indicator? Is it still there?
Yes mate it is.
Cracking test, really good real world opinions and comments. Would love one, not just the best naked but possibly the best road bike bar none, but with an Akrapovic thick end of 19k? Ouch. How much would I get for three kids on eBay ?!
Mate Aprilia are renowned for dropping decent discounts. Give it a couple of months.
Love my 2020, it's the street version of the 98 CR250 I ripped the trails of my youth...
The 21 looks really cool too!
As a side note I'm glad that with all that's been going on for the past year, like-minded enthusiasts can still enjoy a great review 👍
Agree mate and thanks again for the support 🙏
Great review. Perhaps the bike you should have bought for the road instead of the Ducati? Try and get a test ride on the new sdr? Would love a review from you on that. 👍🏻
I rode the 2020 sdr mate. Search my channel. Has it changed much for ‘21? Yeah I’ll own a super naked at some point soon. The Ducati is just special though. Wouldn’t change it for the world.
Good luck getting hold of one, my aprilia dealer doesn't know when there coming in...another lockdown in italy
That’s awful sorry about that. We have them now in the Uk
Fantastic video. Bike sounds awesome one of the best sounding Need to take a demo out stay safe looking forward to more videos 🇬🇧👍
Thanks Richard 🙏
👍👍👍nice review!!
Please could you Clarify for me this:when you say the old model which old model are you talking about the one right before?
Because you say that is more comfy , but Besides the tank and the seat I don’t think that they have raise the handlebars on this model.Thank you
They raised the bars slightly and changed the seat on the ‘21 model over the ‘20. Makes enough of a difference
Have u rode the ducati streetfighter v4??? The triumph speed triple 1200?? The m1000r?? Or superduke evo???
I’ve ridden the Ducati and triumph. Owned a sdr1290 and currently own the s1000rr.
Reserving judgement on the looks until I see one in person. I nearly bought a 2019 Factory. Ended up waiting and bought the 2021 Streetfighter V4S. Love Aprilia bikes though.
Exactly the right attitude mate. Go see one. Trust me it’s awesome.
That seat looks like a carbon copy of the seat on my Triumph Speed Triple RS. It is very comfortable.
It’s not uncomfortable for sure. Maybe a touch wide if being ultra picky
Great review, already ordered one so reinforced my decision to chose it. One criticism of Aprilia in general, their resale values are dreadful, sadly.
Mate I own a 2020 RSV4. I know :(
Looks Amazing..........room in the garage for one more mate?
Hahaha don’t it’s not funny! But yes maybe ha
Great video, I’m so looking forward to my 2021 touno 1100 rr .
I bet you are!!! Congratulations my man 🎉👏🏻
@@mostlymotorbikes when will you be reviewing the non-factory 2021?
@@locomaaan if I can get my hands ok one mate
Good news there’s an updated Tuono. That will bring down the sales price for the old models 😀😀... cant decide on buying one (old model), S1000rr (old model) or an R1... ever road test says the double R is the best bike, but I love the sound of the R1 and Tuono... the looks of the Tuono also are not 100% my taste but everybody that rides it seems to love it... which one to pick 🤔🤔🤔 nice review btw...👍
Don’t listen to me, any other road tester. We are all different. Go and test them all. I hear the S1K was the best but I did not like it one bit. It’s all about what makes you smile mate. They are all amazing!! All of them.
@@mostlymotorbikes very true (I guess☺️).. tnx!
@@myaccount6905 welcome 🙏
I would like to see what it would look like with the red swopped to the acid gold colour.
Hmmm interesting.... see if you could get it wrapped???
Great review. Do you think you could do a couple of hours motorway miles on it? It looks way nicer than the new standard one which seems to be for the mile munching. The factory looks the balls though!
I did some motorway miles mate. There is more screen protection than you might think. Obviously still some buffeting but it’s manageable for touring certainly
@@mostlymotorbikes thanks for that. Will take it for a tip once they get it in the shop. End of the month I think. Rode the 2020 one. They are a beast of a motor!
Fantastic review David, I've just ordered one 😀
Amazing mate. Congratulations 🎉
Sorry but I have to say it. No jerk on the throttle just the one holding it. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Fantastic review as always. 😁😁😁
Haha very good. I’ll give you that 😂😂
I love this bike, for sure the 2021 is nearly perfect. But I still stand by my MV dragster800 rr. Every 6 months I try to find something that will take me off the MV and this has been the closest
Love an MV mate. I see your dilemma.
Would love it if they brought back the colour scheme from the 2017 factory.
Agree mate. Epic 🙌🏼
Interesting first impressions!
An option for a circular tachometer animation would have been much appreciated. You mentioned it sounds similar to your D P V4. Ducati boasts that they have tried to retain the supposed charm of the previous generation twin cylinder sound. The RSV4/Tuono always made the purest and unique V4 sound which is why it has fans who have never even ridden one. Now if it sounds similar to a Ducati then 😒, unless you were comparing only its loudness . Exhaust note, especially in low revs sounds more like the 660. At least in the audio.
Euro 5🤦🏻♂️. Let’s be honest, the way a motorcycle sounds is a crucial factor for many buyers and admirers alike.
Can’t wait to listen to a flyby with an appropriate aftermarket exhaust!
I’m not comparing it in exact sound I am saying it’s at least as “nice”. That’s relative to you but I think my ‘21 v4s has the nicest standard can sound available. However, this is at least as good and the Aprilia V4 sound is not lost mate it’s there in all it’s glory!!!
@@mostlymotorbikes A ride to the Suzuki dealership on a 2021 TRIUMPH Speed Triple and back to back comparison with the brand new GSX-S 1000 would be epic!
Usernamekate just dropped a BMW S1kR video. I see another road bike first impressions coming up here.
Great review 👍🏼, keep it up!
Thank you Peter. Appreciate it mate.
I’m going to get annihilated for asking this but can you get factory fitted heated grips or is there space around the cockpit to put an aftermarket set in there?
Haha reasonable questions mate. Not sure honestly looks like more than enough room.
Good review mate, my brother has the 20 , I’m v interested in this one
Thanks pal. Both great bikes!!!
Hi did u ride the new ktm superduke r. if so which one u perfer great video.
Wasn’t too keen on that tbh. Anyone who thinks I only say nice things should see this ha ua-cam.com/video/a8ndOFvHwGY/v-deo.html
OK, I'm sold on this thing. Maybe the SDR won't me my next upgrade. Like you said I need to work out how I can pay for one and get it passed the Mrs.
Just do what I did and turn up with one without saying owt. She will get over it 😂
@@mostlymotorbikes you’ve not met my wife 😂
Hey David, based on some literature and imagery, it would be great to see the Std Tuono V4 reviewed and compared to the factory. Any thoughts?
Would like to I just think it’s going to be hard to get a go on one. Most dealers will only register the factory as a demo as it’s what they’ll sell most of.
So it finally has a fuel gauge! Hooray!!! A beautiful bike in every sense. Touring on it? That would be nice. But where can you fit the bags?
Well there is the factory version and the non factory that has slightly higher bars and a luggage rack! Have a Google...
@@mostlymotorbikes can you convert the factory to fit a luggage rack?
@@stephenspiteri_zunkus not sure tbh but most likely.
Here is the description from latest tuono accessories catalog, it doesn't say it's only for RR so it looks like panniers fit both models : 'SIDE BAG SUPPORTS - LEFT 2S001719 RIGHT 2S001782
These supports allow to increase the loading capability of your Tuono 1100, enhancing
the road spirit of the ride and improving the sport touring experience of the powerfull V4
engine. Sold separately. Left and right support have different shape and allow the mount
of specific side bag on each side. Final customers will love to add the side bags, to enjoy
Aprilia Tuono for a full weekend or holiday week of fun and ride. The right bag is fixed
instead the left one as a click fix system and is easily removable.
Immages as reference of the product SIDE BAGS - LEFT 2S001624 RIGHT 2S001764'
Hi great video what’s the wind like on the motorway
Not too bad up to about 85 mate. If you need more possibly a larger screen or non factory might be better? I reviewed that too
very refined but didn't tickle me like the superduke - still set on the RSV4 ; change the gearing on the RSV4 lotta people prefer it
Sounds like a good plan
Hay up buddy where have you disappeared to ? Not seen you upload any videos for months
Had some time off mate. Life. Back (ish) now.
Wait.... no more warning stickers all over the bike? 👌
Doesn’t look like it mate. Maybe they listened haha
I love having captions on. Motorbike engine sound says "music".
Hahaha so true 🎶
Hang on. The Tuono has fuel gauge but the RSV4 doesn't? Is that right?
🤷♂️
I've been struggling with this and the KTM 890R. Both great road bikes. I need to test ride. Would be interested to know if you have ridden the KTM and your thoughts
I haven’t but it’s in a different t segment power wise to this. This is a complete animal. Will be hopefully riding that soon.
Well made my choice and I have bought the Ducati Monster 937. Take delivery end of the month. Every bit as quick as the 890 & MT09SP but higher quality
@@andrewdugdale7043 congratulations mate. Ride safe
Im your no 1 fan here in philippines
Thanks Jose! Really appreciate the support and positivity 🥰👏🏻🙏
Great review David.
Thanks mate. Appreciate the support.
