Aprilia and Moto Guzzi are owned by Piaggio the fourth largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. There are no parts supply issues with either, there has been in the past but not now The build quality on both far exceeds anything from Japan. Who cares about luggage and convenience, you have that with the GS Just look at the Tuono it’s stunning and fun, this is what motorcycling is about for the vast majority of us . Great Video, love those roads too Thanks

Thanks MGG.. yeah if I'm honest I couldn't care less especially if I liked the bike enough. I had a 916 mid nineties when Ducati were a nightmare to deal with, that didn't put me off back then and I'd buy this bike tomorrow if I had the money sat in my bank account. 😉

Interesting, I had a ‘15 SDR, and now I’m looking at the ‘20 SDR, but thinking about a Tuono!

If you want to get excited every time you start her up..... this is the one. I can speak from experience ;)

It's so good Michael.. I think this is the one, I need to try that new S1000RR when it turns up at Lovetts but as a road bike this thing is just sublime

You keep mentioning that it's less practical than the Duke R. I really don't think you're looking for practicality here mate 😝 It's your second bike to a GS, so you have all the practicality you need. Judging purely by how much fun you sound to be having I'd definitely say this is the one. 🤘🤘🤘

Went to check this bike (yet again) and it’s one stunning piece of engineering. The sound of that V4 is astonishingly good! I’d have this over the Superduke. Thanks for sharing.

Oh oh oh !!!! You feel like a children in front of his first Christmas tree :-) Good vidéo gui

You have a practical bike the GS. The Aprilia will reward you on many stimulating levels.

Lolol I am with you on the "Witchcraft electronics" I am 50ish and my last machine, back when you had your blade, was a GPZ750; skinny little wheels, a great bike in its' day but NOW... as a lapsed rider feeling the bug I am amazed how far bikes as a whole have come on. I am a (skint) Kid in a Sweetshop! Love your reviews, subbed. 👍

Thanks Si.. oooh yeah I remember the GPZ750.. when I was a dispatch rider I had an old Kawasaki GT750 (shaft drive) and before that a shitty old CX500. Good times 😂 there isn't a bad bike these days, they are all excellent. You definitely don't need to spend this sort of money on a bike to have fun. I have a mate who bought a mint Honda blackbird off Ebay for £1400. He's now doing 180mph everywhere and laughing. Mind you mint 92 fireblades are fetching stupid money.. Thanks for the sub man appreciated 👍😀

As I have said on other vid reviews of this bike, awesome engine and sound, would make great 2nd bike if you have tourer or adventure bike, hate the paint scheme but hell what a bike to ride! It Aprilia made a GT bike with a slightly larger frame with that engine i'd have one!

What a machine

With all that hooting and hollering, I suspect you needed to change your shorts after that ride. :-) That bike will get you excited thou!

You will regret not owning the best road bike ever made and parts are not a problem

Support network always been fine for me having had various RSV4’s since 2011. Currently have one of the original 500 RF LE’s and a 2019 Tuono no problems whatsoever Wheels Motorcycles in Peterborough always given excellent service. This is 2022 not the 1990’s Best bikes and engines try one and see

I agree, better and better all the time, although my local dealer has just been dropped by Aprilia, think that's more to do with the dealer than Aprilia... beautiful bikes. I own a Aprilia RSV1000R. love it.

I've owned 2 tuono v4,s over a 3 year period and for the last 6 months have been riding a superduke 1290 and I now have the answer to the question . If you want to go banzai get the tuono . However the 1290 will do 95% of what a tuono can achieve with way more comfort and if you want to ride slower does not feel like its poking you with a stick to go faster like the Aprilia does. As a road bike I think the duke would suit more people's needs

Ridden both, on 2nd Tuono. SD is a good bike in its own right. Handling is like a noodle and feels 'clunky' it is comfy though. Bit the Tuono is a crazy, sharp weapon. It's just the nest bike on the planet. Ride both, if you like fun, sound and emotion get the Ape. You want comfort and additional costs for quick shifters etc already installed, get the noodle.

Love how you’re talking to yourself now 😂. Although it’s your favourite bike now the Kaiser Chuckle ograph didn’t reflect that! Have you ridden the BMW S1000RR yet as I believe that has similar performance? Excellent video Kaiser 👌🏼🏍💨

Kaiser, are you Dion Dublin? You are a dead ringer for him, voice wise.

"WOOHOOO... So, where was I?" 👍🏻 I haven't ridden the Tuono but from what I read and heard, it's a completely different bike compared to the SDR. The V4 is smooth and powerful, more refined and with better manners. The 1290 V2 is a brute, massive torque just everywhere, a brutal motor. Choose your poison. I'll stick with my 100Nm@2500rpm 😎 Both awesome bikes. What's it gonna be? The muscles, yet elegant 100m sprinter or the football hooligan? 😆

I owned an SDR and then bought a 1250 GS. I wound up selling the SDR because I liked the refinement of the GS, particularly the fueling. I then made the mistake of riding a Ducati Diavel 1260S. The torque throughout is amazing and very comfortable to ride. You owe to your self to take one for a ride and see if you want to add it to your list. I think it compliments the GS really well.

@KaiserWheelHelm

I like that idea.. personally I prefer the look of the x-diavel, but yeah I need to ride one they look amazing.

Sorry, it is not my kind of bike! It's too much of a race bike to me and that's not what I want a bike to be. You mentioned the Super Duke. That's more I like it. You sit upright, not so bend and the engine is probably one of the best ever built. But that is a matter of taste, isn't it?
