The Aprilia Tuono V4 range represents the state-of-the-art in technology. The sophisticated electronic management includes the advanced dynamic controls package with APRC, Cornering ABS, Quick Shift active even in downshifting, Pit Limiter and Cruise Control. The 175 Hp V4 engine and the racing frame provide unparalleled performance.
The Aprilia naked range, heir to a family of motorbikes which has been voted over time as one of the most adrenaline pumping bikes ever made, achieves new and wonderful performance levels and sophistication. This is thanks to Aprilia's know-how acquired over years of winning premier level competitions and the experience of the Tuono history. The Aprilia Tuono V4 family of motorbikes is made up of two distinctly outfitted models.
Tuono V4 1100 RR represents an exceptional thrill machine. The heir to a dynasty of naked sport bikes acclaimed by critics as the most effective and fastest bike in its segment. Tuono V4 1100 Factory is the more exclusive version, dedicated to an extremely demanding public, this bike is equipped with components which are largely derived from the Aprilia RSV4 RF superbike.
The new Factory now comes standard with the most advanced semi-active electronic suspension system currently available on the market, developed by Öhlins and fine tuned with the collaboration of Aprilia engineers. Setup has been simplified for the suspension through simple handlebar controls.
There are 3 Riding Modes the user can select: Track, Sport and Road. In the semi-active mode, suspension performance is managed by the Smart EC 2.0 system which actively intervenes on operation thanks to an algorithm that processes the data transmitted from the vehicle to the dedicated ECU in real time. In this mode, the Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory suspension adjusts, second by second, to the type of route and the riding style used. The Öhlins steering damper is also managed electronically by the Smart EC 2.0 system.
The Tuono V4 1100 RR and Tuono V4 1100 Factory APRC both include Traction Control. This is adjustable on the fly, without having to release the throttle, to eight settings thanks to a practical joystick. This boasts precise and high performance operating logic.
These machines also have Wheelie Control. This system that can be adjusted to three levels, has extremely precise operating strategies. Wheelie control can also be adjusted on the fly without closing the throttle. Launch Control is for use on the track only, with three settings. There is a quick shifter, the electronic gearbox allows shifting without closing the throttle and without using the clutch. And it’s also equipped with the downshift function, to allow clutchless downshifting. Its open-throttle downshifting feature is exclusive.
The list goes on. The bike has a Pit Limiter. This system lets the rider select and limit the top speed allowed in pit lane at the track. Or simply to make it easier to comply with posted speed limits on the road. Meanwhile, there is also Cruise Control. This is very convenient on longer trips because it lets you maintain the set speed without touching the throttle. Take a closer look, by appointment, with Megabikes here in Dublin.
