I think this bike looks amazing! Aprilia really nailed the looks.
Great review Scott! Nice to see the sun & warmth coming to Germany & Europe! Take care & ride safe
Thank you so much for your review; one of the reasons that I decided to buy the bike.
I believe you have placed it in the wrong category that Aprilia was intending it to be up against. The Trident, MT-07, CB650R, just to name three. Anyhow, with that being said I still love watching your reviews. Keep up the great work! 👍😎
Thank you. I'm glad you are enjoying the videos!
BTW, Aprilia is the one that put itself in this category (not me), they did it based on power, performance and price (mostly price imho). And I kind of agree with Aprilia, especially with the price, it's 3-4 k more than the "budget" group bikes, that's about a 50% higher price tag. The MT07 which is at €7.3k and Tuono at €11k, it's just not fair to compare the 07 to this. I like the new MT07 way to much to do that. :)
take care,
Scott
edit: for €11k, I'd take the MT09SP over this all day long! :)
Really like your reviews, honest and concise, you've sold me, can't wait to order one in, of course, acid gold. Thanks keep up the great work.
Not a bike for me, however I do enjoy all your reviews. Thank you.
Thanks Scott. Please consider doing a short video on your video equipment AND the attachments you use ( clamps etc.) on the test bikes.... Regards.
I was under the impression that a Naked bike is the one which doesn’t have a fairing ! Aprilia proved me wrong !
Hi Scott, don't care about the bike, but love your vids which was the reason to view it anyway. Stay safe
Really like your reviews and love the comparece ok the Japanese house wife and the Italian super model 5 ⭐️
Congratulations Scott for the video. I also tried the Triumph RS, KTM 890 R and Aprilia Tuono 660 and I must say I agree on every word you say. Just be aware that the 10550 euro of the Tuono includes the sellers additional costs (330 Euro by KTM, 450 Euro by Triumph). However, even as such, the Tuono is no budget bike.
Great review, nice and concise, we dont need to spend 25 mins + on this stuff pouring over the specs etc,. Fun factor is what I was looking for. Sounding great in stock trim is a bonus! I've ordered one in the Iridium grey.
It's only 7.5 minutes on 2x speed
That Kawasaki in the background 🔥
I like the bright yellow, but I wish the wheels were gold.
black
If only the Street Trpl RS had Cruise Control! Listen Triumph. And MT
09 SP has CC now.
i just found this channel but i absolutely love it
that conclusion of the Japanese house wife or the lady who won't always be there had me cracking 😂
You mentioned my main concern, “reliability”!
Owned several Ducati in the passed and never had any issues while I had them. Have not pulled trigger on my next bike yet but Tuono 660 scares me with the QC and issues.
What is worst for a motorcycle owner than having his bike parked helplessly in the garage?
Again, spot on Scott. If i may sir, not sure it hits as hard as its "competitor's" the way it
you graphed it. But it would shred the class underneath.. Kudos for the ability to place these very different bikes. Why is gsxs 750 asking for 1300$ more? that bike needs to start eating salads
Great review as always, I'm waiting for your review of the 2021 BMW S 1000 R.
Thank you. Yea I'm waiting for it too, hopefully soon. With all the delays related to or blamed on corona/shipping etc. Who knows when I'll actually get to see one.
Ride safe,
Scott
@@NothingToProve It maybe arrives in my country next year, I'm considering few bikes on the 1000cc group. The 2021 BMW S 1000 R on paper stands out the most for me, I decide to make my mind after your review of it.
two thumbs up, thanks for making me laugh. Italian supermodel!!
Love it. Japanese housewife is much cheaper where I come from. Even the SP is cheaper. Might stick to Yamaha.
Haha..great channel mate,housewife or supermodel that was brilliant,i have a 19 busa and am deciding on a great middle naked fun bike,nearly fell for the 660 but for price and reliability i have to go with gut on the 09,the new model is a great package for price.
Test rode mt09sp...Holy cannoli what a machine..fueling way better, needs lower bars and to be in my garage
Same impression here. Seat up, bars lower and further toward the front. I guess doing both of that should be enough to get the riding position more aggressive.
Great review Scott. 👍
Thanks 👍
Great review Scott. Love all your content. Always honest and thourogh. Test rode one today and loved it. Only problem is which colour? 🤔 I love the Concept Black version, but there are none available at my local dealer and waiting months to get stock in to New Zealand. They have a brand new Acid Gold in stock and have offered a great deal drive away. It's a polarising colour. You either love or hate it. Which one would you buy? I'm on the fence whether to buy the Gold and love having something different, but not sure after a month, get sick of the colour, or wait 6 months (middle of our winter) for the black at full retail price + on roads 🤷🏾♂️
Hmm...I'm always careful about colors on a bike. It's like picking a girl friend, everyone's taste is different. But, with that said, this color really POPED in the sun, it looked good but then in the shade it was kind drab/boring. So it really depends on your first impression when you saw the bike in this color. Was it "wow that looks good' or "it's ok" or "hmm...I don't know if I like it". Because one year later, you will probably feel the same way as you did when you first saw it in person. At least that has been my experience when buying bikes for myself and I'm on bike #7 right now and loved the red color when I first saw it and still love it today, two years later.
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve Thanks Scott. My thoughts were the same. At first glance it looks amazing and initially my first choice of the three colours, especially with the sun on it, but looked a bit dull/pearl-lish in the shade. I also feel like it needs the 'a' decal on the front fairing to finish it. Easy fix by putting one on. Kinda looks like a bike that's been dropped and had a new fairing without the decal. It's that particular fairing that looks drab in the different light IMO. Obviously I'm about the looks with this comment, but I loved riding this thing too and it put a big smile on my face. I guess no bike is perfect, so a gripe about colour is trivial. Thanks for your response. I hope to buy one soon. A nice upgrade to the 390 Duke. Take care and keep putting out your awesome content 👌😎
These are available for £7,995 in the UK. That is very tempting and changed your numbers quite a bit
The exchange rate translates to €9,600 here in Germany. So yea, lookin' like a pretty good price!
But the initial offer of a new model usually drops significantly the next year (usually) but that is a lot but to be almost expected in the middleweight group, given the competition in this group.
ride safe,
Scott
@@NothingToProve Yes I agree Scott, it is tempting at that price. I still have a crush on the Speed Twin though :-)
I like the bike from what i can tell. not sure it can quite get to the 890 level but i have not ridden it. the power on all fronts is significantly below that of the duke while the weight is more or less the same.
One thing about that platform under the rear seat. Rear seat actually keeps the rider seat attached to the bike. So once you remove it, nothing holds the rider seat in place. Perhaps if you seat on it it will not slide out of the bike, but you never know. Did anyone at Aprilia think about that designing this? :-)
YAMAHA MT09 SP is the gold standard to beat this year
At the traffic the engine goes high temperature immediately like superbikes?
As always, really appreciate the vid. Thank you. I looked back at your previous reviews but couldn't see the New MT09 there. As the new MT is very different from the previous one, you need to compare that with the others in you chart. So........please do this, if possible, asap.
Coming this Saturday!!!
@@NothingToProve Hurrah! My bank has been informed of a loss of capital, if you like it.... and bye bye to the beautiful CB650R
I won't be showing my wife this review. I want her to continue thinking I have a naked motorcycle because it's better on fuel than a car 😂 good review as always. Does it sound similar to the MT07? I've never heard a twin that sounds quite like these new Aprillias but I've only seen videos and not actually ridden one.
imho, this sounds better than the MT07. 👍 Which is very hard to accomplish.
Your wife must love you :(
Nice review. It sounds and looks nicer so I'd prefer it over the Duke R even with the lower power (road use).
I do like the RS660 more.
The 890 R is better looking and more fun...
@@TheJWC56RSA can't comment on the 'more fun' thing - you could be right, but the KTM better looking? Not even if I squint and turn the lights off. KTM have yet to make a good-looking road bike IMO.
@@NotNowCato1254 Yes IYHO... that is all it is uncle Mike... Best regards!
@@TheJWC56RSA KTM's are top 3 ugliest bikes, easily. They look like power tools, honestly no clue what the designers think when drawing them. Like a cross between enduro and naked, bizarre. RS and the Tuono are beautiful.
Also, 890 R is a different class, it's not a 600. Very weird comment.
Love the comment “Italian Supermodel, v. Japanese Housewife” 🤣
Lovely bike! Thank you! But....having that keyhole pointing downwards? Silly!
that price is just parts for IMU and QS....not labor to install.....add another $300 plus for installation
Nice review! Also road all of the mentioned bikes and the tuono suprisingly, eventhough or maybe because having the "Luftpumpe" behaviour motorcharacteristic, it was the bike I had most fun with on my 30 mins Testrides. Just not sure if its the best allround bike and if it is the best pick long term...
I defiantly want one now😄
if for street use and sometimes cynon, NO TRACK DAY. KTM 890 duke vs tuono 660, which one more FUN to ride???
The wheelbase of1370mm is almost equal to that of a CBR250r honda...it will handle brilliantly
Great review!
Great review of a great bike. A bit too much money to justify when I could get a 2 year old Street Triple RS for at least a couple of grand less. Would prefer it in the red and black. That yellow is just too much!
Do you recall your ducati monster 1100 evo video ? How do you find this compares in terms of comfort. I know this will be down on power compared to the evo but the power seems all usable for every day and I'm considering whether you could tour on it
First of all, the evo is one bike that I really really like, last of the big Monsters being air cooled and several other things, so I'd take the evo over this without hesitation. Now comfort, they are about the same, except the 660 might be a little more compact.
take care,
Scott
which one do you prefer, this aprilia touono 660 or ktm duke 890 r ?
Hope you'll review the 2021 MT-09 SP soon! That housewife is looking pretty sexy to me now that Yamaha has apparently fixed the handling and throttle response, added some ponies, and put in an IMU (which is a requirement for me for a street bike). With no IMU I unfortunately have to rule out the otherwise impressive Z900, and the Street Triple and 890 Duke are off my list since I feel like they are less comfortable for a tall rider than the MT-09. The 660 Tuono looks underpowered and overpriced in this crowd to me, not to mention the limited number of Aprilia dealers in the U.S.
i agree seems as if they added to much plastic to be Naked..Not even close to the absolute GRUNT and pure power of the new 889 triple mt09sp. I have a mate who rips 890 r ktm, it looks like sh*t compared to yam
@@josephmicele1297 the build quality or aesthetics ?
You are literally the only person I've ever seen that had complains about the 660
Quite a few people aren't in the US and have dealers. The Yamaha is so ugly.
That's quite a colour scheme on this Aprilia - yellow, orange and black. Does it have a fuel gauge as Aprilia is infamous for not providing them?
The comparison table at the end is good. This little Aprilia seems to be punching above it's weight with only 659cc. The 890 Duke has an approx 30% larger capacity engine so will be a lot quicker. Probably it's nearest rival is the Street Triple although at 765cc it's still going to have more power and is lighter or how about a Suzuki SV650? Is there still a Honda CB650R?
Thanks Alex. Yes, fuel gauge :)
The Honda & Suzuki are in my "Middleweight Naked & Sport" play list, they are on the "budget" middleweight naked competition list.
take care,
Scott
Is it hooligan enough? (Genuine question). Compared to the V4 1100 Tuono is it a better road bike or is there a chance that you could eventually want for more (on the road)?
Yea, it's fun and yes it is a hooligan bike but you are right, I was often times during this ride wanting more power. But there is also a guilty pleasure of ringing out motor coming out of every corner too. :)
Nice! Thanks for doing this. I asked about this on your other video and you delivered! Good man. Im sure you'll be doing the new s1000r and the new monster as well right?!
Thanks! Yea, as soon as it is in...I'll be on it!
I am looking for a fun bike. I am in the US and the Aprilia and the 890 are around 12 grand or more. The Mt-09 around 9400...what would you get? Didn’t want to pay that much.
Would you pick tuono, 890 r, or 690 smc r mostly for canyons? It's hard to get gest rides on new bikes around me in the US.
Had 675 street triple R (great handling, a bit too much of a sport bike for my taste, too refined to the point of being boring, engine was a snoozefest, decent in canyons, dreadful around town), 390 duke for wife (that thing was a joke of a bike, kind of fun even though it was way too small and flimsy, and had basically no brakes, was ok for put putting around town, that's about it), hyperstrada 821 (decent engine, great ergos, fun around town, suspension and brakes are a letdown in canyons) now. Had a little test ride on a used 790 and kind of hated the unrefined and edgy agricultural engine, suspension seemed to be too soft as well, but the test ride was too short to judge it well.
890 wins for performance but the Tuono has soul but missing some power but still fun to ring it's neck.
@@NothingToProve what about 690 supermoto from ktm?
Did I just see a GPX750R in the background?? Forget 660. Scott you have to make a review on that! 🙂
Yea, that was just one of a few good old bikes they have there from the 80's. All of them are in good running condition too...surprisingly.
Another nice review, but... i felt you are not in a very good mood or maybe you were tired Scott? Sorry for the question but it is produced by the intimacy I feel with you, watching all your videos.
I wanted to ask you, compared to RS660 which you found more fun in the everyday streets (urban and open country)?
Yea, you are right. During the shooting of this, I just had 2 root canals done, on two different teeth, so I was on prescription pain killers, not getting very much sleep and not eating very well, not a fun two weeks. But I felt that I could still film the video with out any one noticing. I guess I was wrong ☹ The process is still not finished with the root canal, but now at least I'm not on pain killers any more. As I type this I'm getting ready to go film the MT09, I'll try to be in a better mood today 😁 Thank you for letting me know that one can tell, I'll hide the pain better today 😉
RS or Tuono, hmm...they are the same except for the riding position, at my age I prefer to sit up-right and not leaned over, so I'd take the Tuono. 👍
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve Good recovery Scott. Teeth are always a difficult affair. I hope I did not look indiscreet. Despite your pain, the presentation remained interesting as you are used to. Thank you and we are waiting for your next video!
Which one would you buy if you have to buy one between the Street Triple RS, KTM 890R or this Tuono 660? Thank you, nice review by the way 👍🏻
Well, I've owned a 1290 Duke for almost 5 years so that's enough of KTM so I think I'd try Aprilia for a while. 👍😁
@@NothingToProve thank you for the reply and for your reviews they help a lot, and I think the Aprilia looks way better than the other two as well, I think I’ll go for the Aprilia as well when I buy my bike, thank you so much and ride like there is nothing to prove 👍🏻
Great review Scott! As most of my riding is comuting and urban, I'm thinking of trading my BMW r1250GS in for a Triumph Street Triple R but then saw this bike. Have you recently ridden the Triumph and, if so, which would be your pick? Cheers
Yes, I rode the RS last year when it got updated and I did a video too and did a track day on one the year before. The difference between the two is that the RS is a serious track day weapon and this is a fun machine. When I get on an RS, it's focused, solid, single minded in that it just wants to go fast, period. When I get on the 660, it says to me "let's go PLAY and have some fun" and "oh BTW, we can go fast if you want to too".
So for a commuter/urban bike I'd lean more towards the 660.
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve many thanks Scott, keep up the great work, ride safe
Has anyone spotted how the headlight profile looks like a bird of prey....
Scott we miss you. Hope all is well?
Yes, all is well, thank you.
Staying inside where it's warm and dry cause outside it's cold and wet.
take care,
Scott
NTP competition chart is missing the CB650R ✌️
That's because it's in the "budget" group.
@@NothingToProve ok ill take that✌️...
It's a pity its just 660cc. At least 800cc and good torque in the lower rpm's and it would be a real contender in the middle class.
Had a deposit on this bike but my wife guilted me so hard I let it go. Really kicking myself. 133 a month payment .9 apr. SHIT!
Shouldn't the wet weight of the '21 Duke be 412lbs in the chart?
You're right, good catch, fixed, thanks!
How come the trident 660 was not included , that's a bargain there since Japanese bikes are getting pricier
Well, I divide the middleweight nakeds into two groups, Performance & Budget.
This is in the performance group for many reasons I explained in the video, mainly being cost. The Trident is in the budget group with the MT07/CB650/Z650/SV650. Which btw, all are cheaper than the Trident except for the Honda.
ride safe,
Scott
How is the powertrain compared to the f900?
Both are good but this is just better, smoother, slicker, easier.
Great toy. Wooow...for the kg. Top
didnt sound like you even got it above 4k rpms
oh come on, at least 3 and a half 🤣🤣🤣
@1:40 Irrefutable proof that motorcycle riding is similar to romantic foreplay.
hmm mt09 sp next methinks NTP ?
Just the normal MT09 is scheduled next, not the SP...as of yet...but will try for one. :)
@@NothingToProve maybe Aprilia will do a factory version of both 660's which would probably suit the mt09sp better
I know I will be kicked off this planet, but I really hate the Tuono!
It's actually not her fault, but Aprilia's to call her a Naked Bike, when she is not! I'm so annoyed with her and her big sister because of that. Call her what she is, an Allrounder, and I might be able to like her.
The fact that both Tuonos seem to be good bikes makes it even worse.
They should not be compared to bikes like the BMW XRs.
Sorry for being so grumpy Scott, because you know that I like your videos.
Anyway....
Take care and stay healthy 👍
😁👍 No worries, it's ok to give your honest opinion, I try to do the same with my reviews.
Aprilia has called the Tuono a "naked" bike for almost 20 years now (since 2002), so I don't think they'll change that label. They are the "Ferrari" of motorcycles, so they call a bike whatever they want and get away with it, they just don't sell enough bikes to compete with the "normal" OEMs, so don't worry about them 😉 (BTW - the BMW S1000R has about the same amount of fairings too, so it really comes down to "where does one draw the line" on when it becomes "faired" and not)
take care,
Scott
@@NothingToProve Thank you Scott. I knew that you would not bash me for my opinion.
But the hardcore-fans of the Tuono usually take it very personally when I say my opinion about this bike.
It's kind of regular thing in my life. Usually I end up with those confrontations when I find something I just can't stand. Because it's always something that comes with those kind of fans.
Btw...
It is not the amount of fairings that disqualifies the Tuono as Naked Bike. If that was the case I would have to attack the Ducati even more intense, right? It's the size of the front. We call it "Lampenmaske" in Germany. I don't know the proper english term.
which one is going to stay home with you, which one is going to take half :)
Buyer beware! My Aprilia Tuono 660 broke after 9000 miles. And now my engine has to be replaced under warranty.
reason being?
traktor
I choose this over MT09 because Tuono looks like a model and the new MT09 looks like a ugly woman.
Donald Trump made a review of a tuono! 😜
You sound like Donald Trump lol
This guy talks like trump
