Great review. You mentioned that its uncomfortable on motorways. You can get adjustable foot pegs that im sure will improve the riding position, making it more comfortable for touring. No bike is perfect!

Acid gold looks like one of the artists coughed up flem and was like "yeah, that's it, that's the color" or aprilia was like "Aldo! We need that 3rd color, what's keeping you amico? Are you high? Is that why you're so lazy? Here's a piss test, we need to test you" then Aldo made the 3rd color his piss out of spite.

Good vid, thanks

Damn that's a cool looking bike. Really tempted but already ordered a speed twin. Went on roadie with a mate who has the rs 660, he loves it, he is an aprillia fan boy though. They sound cool, look cool and really usable power.

If it was the triumph street triple R or RS I’d probably take the triumph tbh. For me my legs are too cramped on the Aprilia but it’s such a good bike

another brilliant machine in the 660 stable, for 10k they are a snip, favour the RS lava red and comes with the quick shifter as I think all bikes will have in a few years, sounds and moves when giving it some beans, I don't think I would trust myself on a V4, really love these Aprillia's.

Hi 👋 So the 660 Tuono may feel a little down on torque low down compared to the Shiver 750 as you need to be in the 5000rpm for it to start singing. Both bike are comparable on BHP though, thats the only thing performance wise you will notice oh and the Tuono handles better

Agree Mark, get what you pay for and i think its value here on this one. It’s a premium bike that packs a lot and man does it feel more like a 900cc bike. I think there are fairy’s in the engine doing their magic here. Better than any 20k sport bike for the road and more fun, usable power. Smiles every mile 👍

Considering trading my 2018 GSX-R 1000R for a naked. I hate to say it, but after 23 years of riding I’m growing weary of riding in a tuck all the time, and the Suzuki has far more power than I’ll ever use on conventional roadways. I had an RSV4, and I love the way Aprilia builds their motorcycles… I just don’t know if the 660 packs enough punch for me. Any thoughts?
