Introducing the 2016 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 RR, a naked bike that captures the essence of raw power and precision engineering. Positioned as a performance-oriented streetfighter, the Tuono V4 blends aggressive styling with top-tier technology, making it a standout in the competitive motorcycle market.

Whether you're carving through canyons or navigating city streets, the Tuono V4 promises an exhilarating experience that is as much about the journey as it is about the destination. At the heart of the Tuono V4 1100 RR lies a formidable 1077cc V4 engine that delivers a spine-tingling 175 horsepower at 11,000 RPM and a robust torque figure of 120 Nm at 9,000 RPM. This engine is engineered for performance, featuring a high compression ratio of 13:1 and advanced Ride-by-Wire technology that allows riders to seamlessly switch between three distinct engine maps—Track, Sport, and Road—tailoring the power delivery to their riding style and conditions. The 6-speed gearbox, paired with a mechanical slipper clutch, ensures smooth gear transitions and confident downshifts, allowing the rider to focus on the thrill of the ride without compromise. The Tuono V4 1100 RR is not just about blistering speed; it’s packed with cutting-edge features that enhance the overall riding experience. The aluminum dual beam chassis offers a lightweight yet sturdy foundation, while the fully adjustable Sachs suspension—both front and rear—provides precise handling and comfort. Safety is paramount, with Bosch 9MP switchable ABS and traction control systems ensuring that power is managed effectively in various conditions. The bike's aggressive stance is complemented by powerful Brembo brakes, providing unparalleled stopping power that inspires confidence at high speeds. **
