Aprilia Tuono 1000 R Factory
As if the regular Tuono wasn't
a maddening enough prize for indigent sportbike junkies the world over, Aprilia
has announced the launch of a special version of the vaunted naked streetfighter
dubbed the 2007 Tuono 1000R Factory.
Aside from the tweaked powerplant, the real difference between the Factory and
regular Tunonos are suspension upgrades. Just like the Factory RSV, the Factory
Tuono discards the 43mm Showa inverted fork for a 43mm Öhlins unit. An Öhlins
piggy-back monoshock also displaces the Sachs system out back. Both units are
adjustable for spring preload, compression, and rebound damping. The suspension
upgrade should exhibit the same benefits which Gobert noted in his comparison of
the two RSVs, with the Factory Öhlins units starting to pay for themselves when
a rider begins to push the envelope out on the track.
