Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Dash & User Interface Overview (2017-2020 Aprilia Tuono V4)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- In this video, I take a deep dive into my 2017 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory's digital dash and user interface, navigating through the various settings, modes, and menus using the buttons, switches, and joystick found on the handlebar switch sets. If you wanted to know how to adjust a rider aid, put the dash into race view, or alter another setting on your 2017, 2018, 2019, or 2020 Tuono or RSV4, RR or Factory (aside from Ohlins Smart EC 2.0 settings on 2019-2020 Factory models), this video should have the details you're looking for!
Hi Chad
Another great video from you! Thanks for sharing. The Indicator cancel trick - by swiping the toggle switch, came in handy.
There are similar tricks one can use whike on cruise control with the toggle switch. Like having a preset cruise speed, and you can just swipe up to rejoin that speed.
Keep up the good work. 👍
Cheers.
That is another useful tip I discovered by accident recently. I was startled when the bike started accelerating on its own. 😅 Thanks Satyen!
One of the things you can use that pit limiter for is setting a max speed around town. I don't know about anyone else, but I find it VERY difficult to keep speeds down on my RSV4. I get speed creep BAD. I can be just cruising through a 35 mph zone and before I know it, I'm doing more than 50. Activate the pit limiter and that will keep your speed creep in check.
so, it cuts the engine based on speed? not rpm
Best video ever for explaining the interface. Haven't seen any big motovlog channels explain this. They're always "the bike is fast you can do wheelies, and it cost too much for you, but it's super fun..." I feel way more confident now when I see one of these on the showroom floor. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Hope you're enjoying yours as much as I am mine 🙂✌️
This was just what I needed to "get to know" my Tuono. Ran the calibration mode to what you sugested, and, WOW, it's like a whole different bike. Thanks.
Glad you found all this info and the recalibration procedure helpful, Marshall! Congrats on your Tuono 😁
Thank you for the tutorial I just bought yesterday 2018 RSV4 RF no instruction manual. No nothing your video was extremely helpful on figuring out the dashboard. Thank you. Keep riding be safe.
Congratulations on the purchase! I'm looking to get a 2018 RSV4 RF next week. Are you in US or Canada and do you kind me asking what kind of deal you got on it? Thanks!
@@MotoMadV4
I’m in the US I think I got a good deal. I’m not pretty sure I paid 15,800 I was more excited to get my dream bike, so wasn’t that worried about making the payments?
@@Alexandermartos exactly the same deal here!!
@@MotoMadV4
So I’m guessing it a good deal
@@Alexandermartos is on the top end of what I'd pay personally based on what I've found but man, there were only 200 of them made for North America so i don't care 🤣 My fav paint livery too. It's a good deal if it's in great shape with a couple upgrades 👍🏻
I just got done finalizing the financing of a 2020 Aprilla Tuono 1100 V4 Factory and I CANNOT WAIT FOR IT TO BE DELIVERED. This is my first “new” or financed bike and this is going to be more of “my baby” than any bike or item has been in my entire life. I am absolutely IN LOVE with this bike and I cannot wait to play with the ALC and AWC as well as everything else that you can customize. Time to watch more videos of you and others riding this beast and showing me how to use it properly!
Congratulations Zach! Have you taken delivery yet? And thanks for checking out my videos 😁
How is it going?
Great video! I just picked up a 17 tuono private sale and found this video extremely helpful!
Congratulations! Glad your found this video in that case 🙂
I love that you still reply to these comments all this time later after you posted this video. This video is super informative! My Ape is getting delivered tonight so I wanted to make sure I could take it for a spin and understand it when it showed up. You really know your stuff Chad! You make great content and you deserve your channel to take off
I try my best! I just love talking about motorcycles with other people that love them too. 😁
Glad you found it helpful, and congrats on your Ape! Thanks for the kind wishes too! I'll keep putting out the videos and we'll see if that ever happens! 😅✌️
@@hiimchad been riding my 2017 tuono v4 1100rr all week and it has been the most amazing experience! You're the main reason I got this bike, otherwise I probably would have wound up with an MV Brutale. The sound of this bike is just unbeatable. If I make it out to California I'll have to meet you
Life saver! Trying to wade through my Tuono owners manual is an exercise in frustration.. thanks!
Glad I could help! 😁 What were you looking for in there?
@@hiimchad actually yeah! Still trying to figure out how to switch between Trip A stats and Trip B! I’ll find it in the manual at some point lol
@@Kurlach Click the little joystick in while the odometer/trip odometer is highlighted and that will switch it between Trip A and Trip B. From there you can cycle left and right for each trip computer's separate data. 🙂
Retiring my 675 to the track and just brought home a gem of a ‘17 tuono, this helped a ton! Excited to dial these settings in, not used to all the options coming from purely mechanical 600’s 😅
I put my 675R on street duty shortly after buying my first Tuono so I know the exact feeling! Glad this video was helpful 🙂
I own a 2019 Tuono V4 RR and can really appreciate the turn signal off trick. I have always tried to press in and not side ways and missed it at times. I am also due for new tires soon so will use the calibration feature. Thanks for the video, learned a lot 🙂
Hey Prad! Glad you enjoyed! I love making these. 😁 I've had the same issue with the turn signal button, and actually pressed it too hard back to the left by mistake while trying to push it in. My thumb would slip a bit sometime and not cancel it, but that one time was all it took to uncover that gem! Great call recalibrating aPRC as well. It's always great when those systems operate at peak performance. 🙂
Agree, pushing the stick in to cancel can be a pain. This is sweet.
Thanks Chad... I've watched this a couple of times... very helpful and particularly when you have more than one bike and a bad memory! :)
Hey Stephen! Glad this was helpful! Multiple bikes can definitely get confusing, especially if you have more than one with electronics like this!
Excellent, just had mine delivered and now I know how to operate the dash. Thanks
My pleasure! Glad you found it helpful, Phillip!
Thanks for the video....picked up mu new 2020 factory model today. Never had a bike with so much electronics
Hey Rob! Congratulations! Glad you found the video helpful. 🙂 What was your last bike?
@@hiimchad had a 14 fireblade
@@uonlyliveonce nice! Love that generation of the Blade. Was it without traction control?
@@hiimchad yep....no rider aids
Thank you. Couldn't figure out Race/track/sport.
2019 v4 rr red and black. Cant wait to try the calibration.
Happy it was helpful! Bike should definitely feel better after recalibrating. Loved my red and black 2017 Tuono RR 🥲
Thank you, this video was extremely helpful when I first got my bike.
My pleasure! Happy to hear you found it helpful. 🙂
Very helpful video as I just bought an Aprilia 2017. Thanks bro👊🏻
Happy this helped! Congrats on your Tuono! 👏
Thanks!! Great tutorial and overview for a new user!
My pleasure! Glad you found it helpful 🙂
Thank you for the information.
You're welcome!
Hi, Chad. Extremely useful, thanks.
Glad it helped, Pierre! Thanks for your comment and for watching 🙂✌️
Great video Now I'm a proffesional at using the controls haha
Happy it helped! 🙂
Great video, thanks.
You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed. 🙂
The user code enables engine start even in the event of an immobilizer system fault. Both keys are required to reset the code if it's forgotten.
Thanks Matheus! I was aware you needed both keys to reset the code if you forgot it, but wasn't sure what the code did. Appreciate you sharing that info! 🙂
Hi, Chad, I'll be going 4hr+ away this weekend to buy a private party 19 Tuono RR, I have a S1000R and am tech/mech savvy on what to look for, do you have any tips or advice specific for Aprilia's/Tuono... your video helped me understand the dash, also got the manual which is how I found about the code. which I'll make sure to reset and have both keys. Been looking at AF1 but nothing about buying tips. Thanks in advance
@@matheusrgomes That's exciting! There isn't really anything outside of the usual that comes to mind. Check for leaks, check oil and coolant levels/colors, check tire pressures, ask the owner to let the bike sit overnight or for at least a few hours before you see it so you can get a cold start. Ask for service records/history. Make sure the bike has a Race ECU flash with that little "a racing" logo at the bottom of the dash if it has an aftermarket exhaust. The cam chain tensioners can take a couple seconds to get enough oil pressure on a cold start to take up the timing chain slack, but that's normal. If it's more than a few seconds, it may be a cause for concern. Make sure everything feels right on a test ride and that the engine makes power like it should.
Oh, one thing to check that I believe is unique to the Aprilia V4s is the spark plug vent hole. It's a small hole in the engine block just beneath the cylinder head, with one hole on each bank. The hole on the front bank is on the right, and the hole on the rear bank is on the left side of the bike. If there is oil leaking or weeping out of there, the o-ring between the cam retainer and head may be pinched, causing it to weep. My Factory has wept from the hole on the right side once, but it's never been enough to cause a change in oil level, and hasn't done it since. You can stick a q-tip in there to see if it's wet, but you may also end up with spark plug anti-seize. That's everything I can think of!
@@hiimchad Hi Chad, Purchased the bike, it had110 miles on it, the holes are clean like the rest of the bike, The ECU has race tune, do you know if there will be any change after the break-in miles? the engine vibrates more than other bike i have, is that pretty normal for V4? specially under 5k RPM. Thanks
@@matheusrgomes hey Matheus, congrats! Yes, they are quite noisy below 5k rpm, most of that is the clutch and gearbox. Totally normal. And the shaking is normal as well, keep in mind it is a big V4! 🙂 When you say the ECU has a race tune, do you mean it has the Race engine map selected, or that it has an Aprilia Race ECU flash with the “a racing” logo in the bottom center of the dash? And you will just need to follow normal break in procedure since mileage is only 110. Oil changes at 600 and 1000 miles if I recall correctly, then one more at 3k. Did you get the manual with the bike? It should detail this and how to ride the bike during the break in period (not exceeding a certain rpm or engine load, etc)
Bruh that Daft Punk shirt is LIT
Glad you like it! 😁
Although I wasn't too surprised, the end of February was pretty rough.. 😔
I like to ride that one, I am just back from riding my 2010 suzuki bandit fa 1255. I always wanted to feel the difference!
The Tuono is quite a bike! If you ever have the opportunity to ride one, I highly recommend you take advantage of it. 🙂
How do you like your Bandit?
Hi Chad, I found this one really good. cheers.
Thanks Steve, glad you enjoyed!
Very informant tutorial, thanks a lot. 👍
My pleasure, Ben! 🙂
Bro! THANK YOU! just bought a 2019 v4 1100 rr. Coming from basically no electronic aids to ALL of them haha
Also, do you get the aracing logo if you have a custom tune or does it have to be the akra code?
My pleasure! I knew someone else would be in the same boat I was in when I got mine! 😁
My understanding is that the Aprilia Racing logo shows up with most, or all, aftermarket maps, not just with the Akra code. My Tuono Factory has an SC Project exhaust and Aprilia's Race ECU flash loaded up by a local dealer, and my RR has a Graves pipe with a tune from OpenFlash Performance loaded to the bike via their tuning tablet. Both bikes have the logo on the dash.
Please do this for the 2022 Tuono V4
I’d love to if I could get my hands on one for a few hours. 🙂
Great video. Super helpful. Really dumb question but I don't seem to see a fuel level anywhere other than the fuel light. I've only owned it 24 hours so I'm still trying to learn so please don't destroy me haha
Unfortunately, there is no fuel level indicator, just the low fuel warning light. That said, your trip odometer will switch to display the distance you have traveled since the light illuminated. I make sure to get fuel within 10 miles of it coming on. 🙂
Fair enough. I appreciate the help!
Great video Chad, thank you, I learned a lot! One question though, when you talked about Calibration and the wheel sensors, you pointed to the ABS rings. The sensors are in one of the holes that holds those rings on, right, and not the rings themselves?
On a completely unrelated subject. Have you removed the EVAP canister? It seems like a popular mod, and I’d like to see a good video on that. 👍🏼
Hey Pez, thank you! Glad you enjoyed and found it helpful. 🙂
Correct, and that was my mistake! I misspoke. What I meant to say was that those were the rings for the wheel speed sensors. The sensor for the front wheel is that black piece by the brake caliper that sits in the right-side fork leg. The rear sensor sits in the rear brake caliper mounting bracket. The gaps in the rings and how fast they are moving is what the sensors measure to determine the speed of the wheels. On other bikes with only ABS and no other electronic rider aids, those rings are what enables the ABS to function. If one of the wheels starts to lock, the variances in speeds observed by the sensors will trigger ABS, pushing the lever back and thereby receiving pressure on the locking brake. Because the Tuono has other electronics like traction and wheelie control, the bike uses the data from the wheel speed sensors and other sensors (brake and throttle position, IMU) to determine what is going on, and what to do about it, if anything.
I removed the Evap canister from my Tuono RR, but haven't gotten around to it on the Factory yet. I think that's a video I could make in the near future. Great suggestion! 🙂
@@hiimchad Thanks for the detailed and comprehensive response, much appreciated!
@@PezRacer my pleasure! 🙂
You probably already mentioned this, but how many miles do you typically get when the gas light comes on?
It all depends on the type of riding I'm doing, but typical street riding I see ~100-110 miles before the light comes on.
I've been able to go 40 miles after the light turned on. I don't recommend it but I was light on the throttle and able to make it to a gas station. What I learned is everyone in town can make it to any gas station in town once the light turns on.
Hi Chad, thanks for the video! My 2017 Factory (stock clone of yours) appears to have a V4 symbol where your “text message” icon is. Any idea what that is? Also have you found 11,800 to be the most effective shift light setting? Cheers! 🍺
Hey Will! Glad you enjoyed, and thanks for watching! I just took a look in the digital copy I have of the owner's manual from AF1 Racing and there is only one image in the entire section about the display that shows the V4 logo you mention. All others show the text message bubble icon, which I now understand means that the bike is transmitting data to a paired smartphone with the V4-MP module.
I did have the dash firmware updated by my dealer, so maybe it changed the icons? The manual I have does include info about the 2019+ Factory's Ohlins EC2, so perhaps they erased traces of that icon because the 2019 had the dash update from the get-go. I do recall seeing that V4 icon on mine at one point, but it is not longer there in any condition.
As for the shift lights, I found myself hitting the rev limiter occasionally in 1st gear if I had it set higher than that, but otherwise it was fine being set a bit higher. The engine makes peak power at 11,000rpm according to Aprilia, so this gives me a little extra room to stretch if I want to hold a gear longer for whatever reason. 🙂
How long have you had your Tuono?
@@hiimchad thanks! I have only had it for a few days. Amazing bike.
@@willharris8979 right? 😁 Congrats on the purchase! Any plans for mods or getting it out to the track?
Excellent 👌 Thanks for the overview! I just picked up a 2019 Tuono rr and have a exhaust and upmap on the way. Having a hard time finding out if I will need a servo eliminator dongle and a evap can dongle or does the map account for that? Thanks again 🙏
Glad you found it helpful! The Race ECU flash, Gabro UpMap, and I think all the other tuning options stop the bike from looking for the servo. Mine is unplugged and removed, and I've never had issues or codes. 🙂
Hey Chad, I have the 2016 Tuono 1100 V4 RR and the dash is not digital like the 2017+ models. Is it possible to swap the dash?
It is, but I think you would be better off selling your bike and buying a 2017 or newer. To swap the dash, you'll also need to replace the harness, which is also costly. Plus, the 2017+ has a lot of great features the 2016 does not, like auto blip, cruise control, bigger/better brakes and cornering ABS. I specifically sought out a 2017 for these features.
Hey, nice video. just picked up a '17 RSV4 and it's my first sportsbike with all these fancy electronics/sensors/etc so i definitely found this video/tutorial helpful. i hate reading manuals. The most modern sportsbike i've been riding is a '08 gsx-r 750 and it has virtually no electronics. I've never had ABS and considering leaving it off on the RSV4. I feel like my braking/control is fairly decent. Are there any reasons in your opinion why we should turn it on (even if at the lowest setting)?
Is the code you were asking about so you can prevent a theft? I mean, the bike won’t start without imputing the correct code right? My buddy lost his key to his Ducati 696 and he inputs a 5 digit code every time to start it. Now that is to bypass the fact he has no key, but I would assume they serve a similar purpose?
The user code is so that the bike can be started with a key that is not programmed to the bike, or at least that is my understanding. I believe the Tuono uses a chip key like most cars have for the past decade or two.
Good video mate 👌🏼
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed 🙂
Great shirt. Did we just become best friends lol....and the supersic decal
We very well may have.. 👀
You're the first to catch the decal on UA-cam! Had to pay homage to his successes with Aprilia. 🙂
You're the best
Thanks Norman! I appreciate that. 🙂
Great video. I just couldn’t work out that the start button changed the engine maps until watching this!
Some advice on the cruise control would be handy. I manage to activate it on the motorway, can feel it cut in, then when I let go of the throttle it deactivates - can’t get it to stay on!
Also, what modes do you typically use for road riding?
Release the throttle slowly! when you release it fast it activates the cancel switch! so if you push your throttle forward towards front Tyre it shuts off cruise control.. I found this out only the other day after just buying a 2019 tuono.. Hope this helps!
Cruise control can be finicky, I typically set it with the throttle still open and am careful not to click it forward as Steve mentioned.
I always use the race map, regardless of whether I'm on the street or the track.
Hey Chad
I’m looking at a used Tuono RR
and the previous owner installed a Leo Vince slip on if I were to replace that exhaust let’s say with a graves do
I have to re-flash the bike again .
Thank you .
Keep the videos coming .
Thanks for the support! If the bike has a Race ECU or other blanket map for an aftermarket exhaust, it will work fine. However, if the ECU is running the original flash for the stock exhaust, it will need to be refreshed regardless of which exhaust you choose, as all of them delete the cat, except for the Akrapovic available at dealers (which still requires the Race ECU as I understand it has a high-flow cat).
That dash looks like a rural bar at night in Thailand 😂
Good evening, where did you get the bar end mirrors? How do you like them? I have the 2020 tuono factory, and have been kicking around the idea of those type of mirrors.
Hey Harry! These are the RhinoMoto bar end mirror mounts/sliders with the CRG Arrow bar end mirrors. I bought them from AF1 Racing.
Mirrors: @t
Bar Ends: @t
I absolutely love them. The way I have them set up does make the bike a bit wider, so I have to be a bit more cautious and patient when filtering lanes, but they give you a much better picture of what's going on around you. They're much more useful than the stock mirrors, and look a lot better too, in my opinion. 🙂
Been contemplating picking up another bike. Currently on a 19 street triple rs, want a v4 for engine . Thoughts on differences between your triumph and aprilia? Mainly reliability?
If you're comfortable accepting a little more risk in potential repairs, I think the Tuono V4 is a much more exciting bike to ride. Mine has been well behaved on the whole with only a few odd issues coming up over the time I've owned it, but nothing that has been too expensive to fix or left me stranded. You might find this video insightful if you're still thinking about buying one: ua-cam.com/video/NecpGarDNX4/v-deo.html
Amazing video, so I’ve been on a sports bike for over 10 years. On a Gxsr750R and 600R. This year I got a M109R but iam bot I’m not really content. All my gear is moto gp sort of speak.
Do you think the Aprilia tuono is better then the rsv 4. I’m a commuter and I would like to be comfortable long term and hit the tracks once in a while.
Great video. Thank you so much. May God bless you and love ones. Ride safe.
Hey! Thank you, and glad you enjoyed!
I would recommend the Tuono over and RSV4 if you spend more time riding on the street than at the track. It is more comfortable, but the riding position is still a little aggressive, so you have great control over the bike in the corners. Plus you have more midrange power and shorter gearing, so the Tuono is actually faster in most street situations than the RSV4. Hope that is helpful! 🙂
Pit Limit use with caution . I had mine on at full throttle rolling down pit lane glove glanced the button turning it off........ INSTANT UNEXPECTED WHEELIE
This happened to me the first time I used it too. Good thing AWC was on 3!
Whatsup dude 👍🏻 ive just changed tyres from Dunlop’s to supercorsas do you recommend i recalibrate?
Absolutely! I would go as far as to call it a requirement after every tire change. It only takes a couple minutes to do and prevents the risk of aPRC not performing as it should.
@@hiimchad okay i think i will then. I’ll go bk into your video just so i know what to do 👍🏻
@@adamstratford6740 Right on! Also, just so you know, once the calibration is complete, you'll need to pull over, turn the bike's engine and electrical off, and let it sit for 60 seconds before turning the key back on. That will allow it to store the data.
U ever have issues with your quick shifter? I picked up a 2019 rr. All stock at the moment, but that logo on the bottom of the dash that has a orange background with a little gear and a down arrow. The background is now red, and my quick shifter doesn’t work. I wonder if it’s just a faulty quick shifter. I don’t think I would have done anything to damage it. And I only think I’ve ever noticed the background being orange before. Ever hear of any issues?
Hey Mike! Unfortunately, I've never experienced what you're describing. Mine is orange occasionally, or not illuminated at all. I've never seen it turn red before, and am not aware of any known issues. The mechanism itself is pretty easy to examine. Maybe take a look to see if the small pressure sensor is sticking at all, and check the wire to make sure it hasn't been damaged. The QS unit is that block-looking thing that's attached to the arm on the transmission's shift spindle. Have you checked the forums to see if anyone else has experienced this issue?
@@hiimchad I’ve got an appointment at the Aprilia dealer for next Thursday. Figured that would be safest. I’ve seen some forums saying a few have been faulty. But there isn’t much info out there. It’s still under warranty so hoping I won’t have to pay anything.
@@BilboTeaBaggins413 if it’s still under warranty you certainly shouldn’t have to. Here’s hoping they figure out quickly and get it back to you good as new without any trouble. 🙂
helo ronald, have you solved the issue of quick shifter? I have same problem, the quickshifter not working, and the background still red
@@rorikuykuy4724 yes I took it to the dealer. They said the quick shifter was faulty after testing out stuff. They ordered a new one and put it on. Luckily at that time it was still covered under warranty. I haven’t had the same issue again. But also I haven’t had a whole lot of time to ride either. Hoping this one lasts.
Where do you keep Registration?
Under the bolted down seat or tuck in hole under pillion seat?
Tucked under the seat cowl in a little zip-lock sandwich bag, along with my insurance card.
Very helpful video; just brought a 2018 tuono factory can you tell me where you got your bar end mirrors from?
Glad you enjoyed it, Ian! Congrats on your Tuono! I bought the mirrors from AF1 Racing (www.af1racing.com/CRG-Bar-End-Mirror-Arrow-Series-Sold-Each ) along with the RhinoMoto bar ends (www.af1racing.com/RhinoMoto-Bar-Ends-WMirror-Recesses-Round-End-BK ) that the mirrors mount on.
I made a video going over the mods on my bike and talk a little bit about the mirrors in case you're interested: ua-cam.com/video/gKKO3dtx9f4/v-deo.html
@@hiimchad ok I’ll have a look thanks
Thanks the Orange Shift light always confused me, manual is not very clear.
It really isn’t! Glad this was able to help you out, Luke. Enjoy your Tuono! 🙂
Where can i get the mirrors you have on this bike?
I bought mine from AF1Racing.com, but there may a better deal elsewhere. They are the “Arrow” mirrors made by CRG.
Just curious if break in procedure, I don’t live in the city so I’d be going constantly at 60 mph, I’d like to hurry and break it in. Can I just ride constant at 60 mph to break it in?
Hi Andrew, I honestly can't say for sure. I've never had to break in an engine from new before. My understanding is that what you want to do specifically goes against the break-in procedure Aprilia recommends in the owners manual, so I wouldn't recommend it. It's best to vary the load on the engine when it's new, as this will actually help to open up any internal clearances that are too tight, and will probably give your engine the best shot at performing optimally, and lasting a while. An alternative would be to call one of your local shops or your dealer and see if they can break it in on a dyno, or what their thoughts are on that. I know that is a fairly popular practice for race engines, but those engines are also serviced much more frequently than your typical street bike's, so it may not be the best for longevity.
What wing mirror are you using, or what weights?
Thank you.
The mirrors are the CRG Arrow model and the bar ends are from RhinoMoto, made specifically for CRG bar end mirrors. Hope that helps!
Can u fit the 2017 speedometer to the 2015 r 2016 model
Good question, Stephen! I don't have a sure answer for you, but if it is possible, I bet it's not as easy as just mounting it and plugging it in. Based on my knowledge of motorcycle electronics and interfaces, I imagine it might require the wiring harness and ECU from a 2017+ bike, which would then require a custom tune for the pre-2016 bikes that had the 1000cc engine, not the 1100. 2016 might be a little more straightforward, but again, I'm really not sure. I recommend researching apriliaforum.com for info on a dash swap.
Just picked up a 2019 tuono… my dude, where is the fuel level indicator?? Am I going crazy
Congrats on your Tuono Adam! You’re not going crazy. Like many supersports and superbikes, the Tuono does not have a fuel level indicator. It does have a low fuel warning light though, and when that comes on, the trip odometer will change to display the distance traveled since the light came on. In my experience, I wouldn’t go more than 10-20 miles after it’s illuminated without fueling up. The reserve is only about a gallon, and she isn’t a fuel sipper, especially if you enjoy the sound and the power. 😅
Hey cool thanks
How Change the dashbord wrench Service light???
Hey! You're very welcome!
Unfortunately, the service wrench light on the 2017+ Tuonos with the digital dash must be reset with a special computer that I believe only dealers have. You could reset it in the menu with the 2016 and older Tuonos, but they disabled that when they started using digital dashes.
I completed the 6,250-mile service myself on my old 2017 Tuono RR and just took it to the dealer and had them reset the light. Charged me for labor, but they did it.
Hey, I’ve previously owned a 2011 APRC tuono v4r so some of the controls are similar but due to me having a mt09 sp now have the newer tuono’s added it so you can monitor ur fuel efficiently? Since there’s no bar like most bikes. Just wondering bc I love them and miss it but moving away to a new country from an island so not sure how it would be on motorways etc is it a pain to manage fuel or no?
Hey Jody! I don't recall if the new 2021 Tuonos have a fuel gauge, but I can confirm that the 2017-2020 bikes do not. I use the Trip A odometer to track my mileage, and know I can usually get 100-110 miles riding on the street, and up to 130-140 if I'm riding more highway. I also know that when the fuel light comes on, I should get gas ASAP, as I did run it out of fuel once only about 20 miles after the fuel light came on. I typically fill up on the way home from a ride if I know I'm going to be riding more than 10-20 miles the next time I plan to ride. My 2017 can also display real-time and average consumption, so that may be helpful in tracking mileage.
@@hiimchad Thankyou for the info, yeah its always been a pain tracking it especially on my 2011 one, had to open the fuel cap and look in ahaha. But yeah 100% I always fill up before and after a ride usually but thankyou!
@@JakeRides99 yeah it definitely adds extra steps and a fuel gauge would be nice. That said, I certainly wouldn’t trade any other prt of the bike for one. 🙂 Thanks for watching and commenting, Jody!
Question about pit lane limiter. I'm new to my bike. I set mine at 30mph. Pressed the switch when doing 30 in first gear, opened the throttle and it went passed 30mph. Is there a warning on the screen when it's on? Or is mine broke?
EDIT: set limiter to 31mph. I was wandering if it needs to be in race mode to activate?
EDIT EDIT: just been out to the garage and set the pit lane limiter on and I could see a chequered flag on the screen. Does the limiter stay on or does it turn off after every time you switch the ignition off?
It's been a while since I've used it, but I recall it needing to be reactivated every time the bike is turned on. When you have a pit speed selected, you must press the "PIT" button on the lefthand switchset while the bike is stopped. You will then see that flag with the set speed limit, and the orange shift lights at the top of the dash will begin to flash slowly. Then, put the bike in first gear and start moving. The limiter will only work in first gear and is cancelled by either pressing the PIT button again, or shifting to second gear. A word of caution though, if you do plan to deactivate it while still in 1st gear, be aware of your throttle position. If the throttle is more open when you cancel the limiter, it can result in a wheelie.
@@hiimchad Cheers Chad. From what you're saying you must stop the bike before pressing the limiter? Wouldn't that defeat the object or am I missing something?
@@Tuffers-1875 you know what, it absolutely would. I just popped in the garage and fiddled around with it and it seems you must go from Menu > aPRC Configuration > Pit Limiter, then turn it on and set the speed. Back on the main display, the little checkered flag icon will appear with the set speed. After that, you must press the Pit button on the lefthand switchset. All shift lights will begin to flash once it is active. I would assume the button will activate it in neutral and in first gear, so long as you are moving below the pit limit speed you set or are stopped. Not sure if it will help the bike decelerate if you’re going faster than the set speed in first, but I do remember it will not activate in 2nd-6th. 👍
Coming from an MT-10, how is this with an occasional small passenger? Thinking small 100 mile trips through the country side from time to time with regular breaks.
The Tuono RR would be good with an occasional passenger. The MT-10 has a larger pillion seat, but the Tuono RR's is still larger than just about any supersport bike's. The Tuono Factory, however, is much smaller. There is a tiny pillion seat you can snap on top of the finned tail fairing, but it is the tiniest pillion I think I have ever seen.
@@hiimchad Thanks for the input! Only looking at a left over 1100 RR, ridden both at the track and it does just fine. Looking for a replacement for my MT-10 that had an unfortunate early end to it's life with me because of a distracted driver.
I originally had a Tuono RR that I did two track days with and it did very well, but was a little softer than I prefer, particularly in the front, even with the suspension dialed. Too much travel for my liking. Once we determined my girlfriend would not be joining me on the back, I found a Factory and sold the RR. 🙂
That said, the RR is definitely a better road bike if that is what you'll be using it for, and still more than capable on a twisty road or a track. The suspension is much more compliant and better suited for bumpy surfaces. I've already had the Factory on track four times this year, splitting those days between it and my Daytona 675R. Definitely looking to get it out at least once more this year.
Sorry to hear about your MT-10's unfortunate end, and your accident. That is quite a shame. Were you okay?
@@hiimchad Makes sense, I ride supermoto at the track a lot and I'm used to that dive. For me the Tuono would mostly be for street and maybe 1 or 2 track days a year. I like taking a passenger from time to time, but it's not the primary use for the bike.
The Daytona is such a great bike too, I had a Street Triple 765 RS for a number of years before I got the MT-10. I've always had my eye on the Tuono after doing an Aprilia Racer Day in 2019.
I'm recovering but from what I can tell I've escaped major injury. It happened less than a week ago. I got lucky in that I wear all the gear all the time and a Dainese Smart Jacket airbag. I'm convinced the airbag saved me from worse and some broken ribs. With that said I am quite stiff and will have some time before I'm back to 100%. The driver struck the muffler from behind as I was exiting the freeway, they were going much faster and punted the bike forward without me on it. The muffler folded up and impacted my right calf really hard. Fingers crossed nothing surfaces months later.
@@TheDriversPerspective Sounds like the Tuono RR will be a great fit for you! I would argue it's a step up from an MT-10 in all regards aside from the passenger seat. I took a look at your clip on the Street Triple from the Racer Days at Buttonwillow! Think you'll make it out next year if they do an event? I've been up there quite often this year.
Oof... so sorry to hear. Nothing you could have done in that situation, just in the wrong place at the wrong time. You're a smart man, though! Things would have been much worse without the Smart Jacket and the rest of your gear. Here's wishing you a speedy recovery, and no issues down the road.
I, too, follow the ATGATT principles. I have the Tuono D-Air jacket (purchased for the airbag, not for the namesake 😂) and always ride with it on the street, unless I'm at my training spot on my WR, in which case I wear my Super Speed textile.
How do you get lap timers off the screen
Hold the joystick to the left. That will take the dash out of race mode.
@@hiimchad is there any other way to turn it back to "road" mode? Mines stuck on race dash!
Hey Chad
I’m looking at a used 2020
Tuono and the previous owner installed what looks to be a
Leo Vince black edition slip on.
I asked the dealer if the bike has been flashed and he couldn’t tell me. Is there any way of telling if the bike has been flashed. If the bike hasn’t been flashed will It through any codes.
Thank you Bud.
There should be a little Aprilia Racing logo at the very bottom center of the dash next to the intercom, phone connection and AQS indicators. It’s a while “a” in a red box followed by “racing”. This signifies the bike has Aprilia’s Race ECU, and OpenFlash tune, a Gabro flash, or something else to adjust for the lack of a cat. It may not throw a code if the exup servo is left in place and connected, but will run rich and lean under some conditions which won’t be good for the engine long-term. Hope that’s helpful! ✌️
Thank you so much .
The bike is a tuono rr but the previous owner installed the factory tail on it .
I really looking for a factory model but I can’t find one in my budget .
Is there a big difference between both models in your opinion .
I have seen your video on both models but if you could only choose one, which one would it be. Thanks for the great content
I’m loving the channel .
@@chitoloveone7565 thanks for watching! I prefer the Factory personally, but my RR was a great bike as well. Aside from the RSV4 tail section, the Factory has Ohlins suspension and an adjustable Ohlins steering damper. Outside of those parts and the graphics, they’re exactly the same. I wanted a Factory for all the things it had my RR didn’t. The Ohlins is a bit harsher on the road, but magnificent on track. The RR is quite comfortable on the road, and still very capable in the twisties or on track, but just quite as sharp as I was used to.
Is there a fuel gauge???
Nope
I was not expecting to see Average Fuel Consumption on a bike that doesn't have a fuel gague
This thing is full of surprises! In addition to average consumption, once the low fuel light comes on, the trip odometer also changes to show you how many miles you've traveled since that happened. The reserve on this bike is about a gallon, so I figure I can get 25ish miles in most cases that comes on. 🙂
how to turn off service light?
My understanding was that only the dealer can do it, but another viewer on another video told me that inputting "12412" in the service code area will reset it. I haven't had to try it yet, but I'd say it's worth a shot before taking it in to the dealer.
@@hiimchad Be careful doing that. My service guy just tried it and we spent an hour trying to get out of the "New Code:" menu. Couldn't turn the bike off. In the end I suggested disconnecting the battery and that worked. I'm never touching that again.
Does this model have a fuel gauge?
It does not.
@@hiimchad a fuel warning light ?
@@highestsprings it does have one of those.
How do you know how much do you have left ?
How much gaz ?
@@thierryfleck546 I use my trip odometer to keep track of when I last filled the tank. I know I can get about 110 miles in the city and 130-140 on the highway and plan accordingly. The fuel light comes on when you have about a gallon left and the trip odometer changes to display the mileage you've traveled since the fuel light came on. This bike does not have a fuel gauge.
Small price to pay for such a bike...thanks 👍
@@thierryfleck546 I haven't had a motorcycle with a fuel gauge in the last 6 years so I'm used to it at this point. It's a small price indeed, especially for those gorgeous looks and V4 soundtrack. 🤤 Thanks for watching! Are you shopping for a Tuono? 🙂
@@hiimchad absolutely...i'm in love with the tuono vu since 2016 ( had it for 1 week ) waiting for the new update coming out soon. Had you a chance yo test other hyper naked ( SDR, Streetfighter v4....) ? If yes, can you make a video telling us your what your think ? They're no videos from a tuono v4 owner perspective...thanks 👍
Where is the fuel gauge
There isn’t one lol
@@hiimchad
Thanks
But what keys to cycle through with
Hey Lance! To cycle through the menus, you only need the bike's key. If you need to reset your personal code if you forgot it, you will need both the primary key and the spare key. Does that answer your question?
@@hiimchad it won't let me select the map mode to change the ecu map.
@@lancebreak9825 to change engine maps, the engine must be running. Do you only have the key on, or is the engine running as well when you tap the starter button to cycle through the maps?
@@hiimchad running, should it be off?
@@lancebreak9825 no, the engine should be running. To confirm, you’re trying to switch between the Sport, Track, and Race engine maps that are displayed on the screen under the speedometer, right?
I never change the time on my clock because it's correct twice a year .
