Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 / V4 Factory
Press release issued By Aprilia: The evolution of one of the most acclaimed motorcycles by the public and critics has arrived : it is signed by Aprilia and bears a name esteemed and respected by all sports motorcyclists, identified as a true generator of emotions. It is not a naked: it is the Tuono , always considered the benchmark in the category for effectiveness and feeling in sports riding on the road as well as in riding at the limit on the track. Aprilia was the first to understand the advantages of creating a more essential and raised version of its sports bike, giving each generation of Tuono unparalleled dynamic qualities. The new Aprilia Tuono V4 is the heir to a dynasty of motorcycles elected over time among the most adrenaline-filled ever and now reaches absolute levels of performance and sophistication, thanks to the know-how Aprilia has acquired over years of winning competitions at the highest levels. The Tuono family is more complete and diverse than ever, capable of accompanying the motorcyclist on his or her personal growth path, but strictly made up of sporty and exciting models, worthy of the name's prestige. The range includes Tuono 125, the entry-level bike with a strong character; Tuono 457, lightweight, advanced and fun, ideal for new motorcyclists; Tuono 660 Factory with a record-breaking weight/power ratio, extremely light and accessible to all, and Tuono V4, the point of arrival of a motorcycling career. Two models are available that stand out for their trim: Tuono V4 is the definitive hypernaked for sporty riding on the road, rigorous and exciting like no other, with the possibility of making it more comfortable and dedicated to tourism thanks to the wide availability of original Aprilia accessories; Tuono V4 Factory is the most exclusive version, dedicated to an extremely demanding public and equipped with components largely derived from Aprilia RSV4.
The new design always interprets the typical language of all Aprilias in a modern and aggressive way and is characterised by compact and essential shapes capable of enhancing their sportiness. As per tradition, the new Tuono V4s also feature the fairing fixed to the frame, essential for having a front end free from weight, precise and reactive, but the design has been completely revised to gain more protection from the air and now features two overlapping wing surfaces capable of increasing the vertical load by 2.5 kg at 250 km/h. The layout of the winglets, derived from the experience gained by Aprilia in MotoGP, was developed in the wind tunnel and allows for increased grip on the ground and consequently also rigor when cornering, an area where the previous versions of the Tuono V4 have always excelled, in addition to stability at high speeds. Furthermore, the new design contributes to improving heat dissipation thanks also to the presence of more powerful radiator fans and to increasing rider comfort, better diverting the hot air flows away from the legs. The design of the side panels is also new and integrates better with the style of the new tail fairing. The rear light cluster, lighter and more essential, is integrated into the license plate holder; all the lighting functions are performed by the direction indicators. In this way, it is sufficient to eliminate the license plate holder to prepare the bike for use on the circuit. The equipment of the new Aprilia Tuono V4
includes the lightweight lithium battery, the 5” color TFT instrumentation with
new graphics and backlit electrical blocks on the handlebars.
For all new Aprilia V4s, a new chapter opens regarding the on-board electronics that manage the active riding assistance systems. A new generation of control systems, which can also be purchased as an “in-app purchase” that does not require a trip to the dealer, to have the best electronic configuration depending on your needs and riding style. Aprilia introduces for the first time a series of electronic packages that best combine performance and safety, adding functions and new adjustments to the already very rich Tuono V4 equipment. The system assists the rider in safely reaching their limits, allowing them to gradually improve. This is made possible by the introduction of new adaptive/predictive components on wheelie, traction and yaw controls. The predictive part of the algorithm processes the vehicle parameters in real time (speed, lean angle, gear, throttle opening, etc.) to prepare the gradual and targeted intervention in advance. In addition to this, the sophisticated software continuously analyses the vehicle's dynamic responses and the rider's riding style in order to offer even more refined and effective control. Both models come standard with the six-axis
inertial platform, the Ride-by-Wire electronic accelerator and 3 riding modes
that manage the 3 levels of Cornering ABS and the controls present in the APRC
(Aprilia Performance Ride Control), the well-known package of control systems
directly derived from racing, which includes: The Track Pack ,
standard on the Tuono V4 Factory, enables: The Comfort Pack ,
standard on the Tuono V4 Factory, enables:
Aprilia Tuono V4 The Aprilia Tuono V4 is equipped with a trio of Sachs suspensions. Being completely adjustable, they allow everyone to find their own preferred setup, more oriented towards sport on the track or riding on the road. The V4 engine with its unique character and sound is the same unit installed on the Tuono V4 Factory. It is available in two colour variants: Shark Gray and Scorpion Yellow, both opaque and able to enhance the philosophy of the Tuono family, sporty in evening dress. The single-seater tailpiece replacing the passenger seat is standard. Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory The collaboration between Aprilia and Alpinestars
continues, leading to the creation of a complete line of clothing dedicated to
the Aprilia V4. The one-piece Throttle Leather Suit guarantees top performance
and fit and pairs perfectly with the Throttle Leather Suit gloves made of
full-grain goatskin. The new outfit also includes a line of streetwear that
includes the Twisties Tex Jacket with removable winter lining and the Throttle
Leather Jacket with Nucleon Flex Plus protectors designed to accommodate an
airbag. Also new are the Twisties gloves with leather palms and a multi-layer
structure with carbon protectors.
