Hi yammie. I’m a new subscriber and am getting into motorcycles. But I am in a predicament where I am missing about all of my fingers on my left hand except my thumb. So I’m assuming this complicates things with the clutch😅. Is there anything that can make this easier? I am open to other peoples suggestions as well ofc.

Tuono for me, done this exact same comparison on my channel! I did vote for the SF at the end but since then changed my mind! Ended up hating the SF by the time my loan with it had finished

I’m happy to hear that since I’m an Aprilia fan and owner. I watched all your reviews, big fan of them, and it amazes me how you will always pick whatever comes against an Aprilia v4 (tuono or rsv4) not for any dislikes, but simply because you feel like on them you can’t hold back. It’s so telling! Glad to see you here tho!

Great comparison guys and really good job. I owned a V4 Tuono factory for 5 years and last year traded it on a new streetfighter V4S. I have to say that I think you both nailed it and I agree with all of your findings. The bottom line is that the choice is a personal one and depends on where your head is at. I loved the Tuono but I did get tired of the abrupt throttle and for me the SF's more refined control makes all the difference. I can still wind it out and find that craziness when I want to but for everyday riding the Ducati is so much more comfortable and controlled. I just find it easier to ride. But if you want something more froggy all the time - a bike that always begs you to be a hooligan, the Tuono is the better choice. The SF doesnt mind being chill- the Tuono hates it. Both are great motorcycles

The reason I wouldn’t get the Aprilia Rsv4 is the Tuono!! I’d rather be comfortable and still have a little wind screen, and not miss the extra 25 useless HP The Ducati is the exact opposite problem!! With that much performance I’d rather have the Panigale V4s and useable wind screen🤯

wouldn't that actually technically make it climactic?

The SFV4S is such a masterpiece - it’s like driving a piece of art (people come up to look at it all the time) and it’s brutally powerful but you need to keep it in the high revs. I doubt you could match it with the Tuono if the Streetfighter is ridden properly. I swapped to the full titanium exhaust last year (after owning it for a year) which gives you 220 hp. Now it sounds like a Moto GP bike when I push it - it’s magical. And, this year I switched to Supercorsa tires which are PERFECT for the Streetfighter (I don’t get why it ships with the Rosso Corsa tires which don’t match the bike’s performance at all).

I just bought the 2022 SF V4 Base model. same price as the Tounos factory. both bikes ride nice, my decision came down to product finish, side by side, Duc is heads above the Ape

Those first 15 seconds were amazing!

Very cool videos guys ! If you ever will have a chance to make a video like this with an Mv Agusta 1000rr would be extremely interesting to watch, that is arguably the most insane naked bike!

It feels like maybe this is a brave new world and these bikes might be a young person's game. My 916 scared the hell out of me when I rode it from Pro Italia home (the first one out their doors) and the Streetfighter effective DOUBLES its horsepower. Regardless, it is the very essence of why we ride - beautiful and brutal in mostly equal parts. Enjoy and be as safe as possible : )

The only bad thing about the Ducati is that it does not sound like a V4

Great job on the review!! I picked the Tuono over price, looks, useable power on the street cuz that’s what I do mostly, and the musical exhaust tone.

Absolutely epic machines. Thanks for breaking them down as we daydream. 🔥💪

I own a super Duke 1290r and a MV AGusta 800rr Pirelli edition. I bought the MV over the Streetfighter and it was more expensive as number 27 out of 200 in the world. The super Duke for the street, hands down as all the power below 9000 rpm. SD makes more power and torque than 99% of bikes with revs below 9000. The Streetfighter is still a Panigale as it does not go crazy until 8000 rpm. Buy the Panigale especially if going to race. I bought the MV as I own the best street bike. I wanted an unique, exclusive triple. Triple similar to V4 with torque and horsepower but more character as not as smooth as a V4. V2’s and triple very unique. Love the sound Tuono over theStreetfighters Big Bang similar V2 sound. Also Streetfighter little more difficult to wheelie with counter rotating crank which is also on the MV. MV does wheelie though as 140 horsepower with just over 400 pounds. Feels like a bicycle it is so small.

Both bikes are so close, that you simply have to say that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”. I own (and love) the Streetfighter V4S (matt black) but that is just a personal choice. Makes no sense to engage in features battle with these two awesome bikes.

According to aprilia the rs660 engine is literally half of the rsv4 engine that’s been bored out and we all know the rs660 is a cross plane engine. So i’m guessing each of the parallel twins in the V-block is also crossplane which is why the aprilia engine has a meaner deeper and better sound

@lhdrones1775

Yes, the Ducati works with a twin pulse system, making the pistons in the same head fire in a short time one after the other (0, 90, 290, 380 degrees, doing 2 full 360 rotations since it’s a 4 stroke engine). That is done with a 90 degree v and with a 70 degree crankshaft (that rotates in the opposite direction of the wheels). The Aprilia’s engine is a 65 degree v, with a standard 180 degree crankshaft, the resulting sound is similar to the one on the Yamaha r1, but the difference in the v angle makes for a different note. The degrees for the Aprilia are 0, 180, 425, 605. The ones for Yamaha are 0, 270, 450, 540, kinda similar, but to a trained ear they sound different. Yamaha has a higher harmonic pitch, while the Aprilia is more grumbly and hoarse.

The bike is so nice from the cornering capabilities all the way down to the righteous TORQUE!! Call me a uber because my pants are way to wet.

In other videos these two speak of how these bikes are so powerful that it’s practically unsafe to ride these in/around the city using its full spectrum of power. I am not qualified to give an opinion, but if an hours ride was completed and my wrists were so sore due to riding position of the Aprilia, I guess I’d “settle” for the V4s. I compliment all the great roads the Hill Country provides to have a blast on any of the bikes demonstrated in YN’s videos!

Both bikes are great. For me the Streetfighter V4s pls 🔥

Love the new front LED’s of Tuono. Both bikes looks great, though. Can not go wrong with either. What every pulls your heart strings, not specs. So glad Tuono finally has bright LED’s. Tuono’s base model is the most bang for the buck.

Great vid. I think you guys should learn to wheelie though and throw that in as a new category.

This is so on point. I wonder why nobody else speaking of that? I own MT09, and even with almost twice less HP than these monsters have - I feel that I would love some wind protection to uncover any of it's potential on the highway. In the city - If I will get to twice the allowed speed limit in 0.1 seconds - no noticeable, as it still wheelies every stoplight. Outside of the city - riding at speeds these motors were meant to ride - wind blast becomes a huge issue. If the Tuono plastic is not just pure marketing but actually helps deflecting the windblast in a decent way - I think that's the only bike I would switch to.

Congratulations on the 1M! You deserve it!

The streetfighter front head light/instrument assembly is always been too low and that gives that Quasimodo look of being hunchback, ducati just need to raise it a couple of inches along the forks. Apart from that the bike is amazing, but the pinnacle of naked bike Ducati reached it with the Monster S4rs.

the N+1 mentality hits me hard after these videos.

7:41 it’s also got uneven firing intervals like the R1 has, hence the noise!

Witch bike has the most comfortable riding position are you leaned over more on the street fighter or on the tuono

@10:33 I will get flamed for saying this, but the Vulcan S does the same thing as the Aprillia Tuono in this case... just go faster, pls. The Vulcan S wants to be a Ninja 650... Lean over the tank, feel the front end and push it. It understeers like a bathtub on rollerblades, but you can work with that once you get used to it. It's pretty hilariously good at it. It's like the "front wheel drive car" of the 650 class.

Hearing both of these bikes in person is absolutely insane. you honestly can't go wrong with either of these bikes, they are incredible

I like both, but I'd definitely go for the ducati 😍

Both great bikes, and I have the Tuono, but the Ducati looks pregnant to me and not streamlined at all. Also I live in central Nevada and no cruise control is a deal breaker.

Ill keep em both and let you know whats best for sure no problem :p

If the Streetfighter had the headlight from the Monster (without the stupid bikini fairing) I don’t know if I could resist it

I wish my bike had the ball scratching feature

I love the how other than having a panigale engine in the streetfighter, it has the same seat too, reinforces yams statement of how it’s pretty much a panigale v4 with a different face, also just saying if someone says that streetfighter looks bad, they obviously haven’t seen a superduke 1290(not talking crap, I would love to own a superduke just making a comparison)

Exhaust and tune turns the Ape into a smooth criminal 😎

1:50 how could this be called an L? There is no vertical and no horizontal cylinder. It's simply a V4.

Finallly! Been waiting 2 years for you guys to take out the V4

Congrats on the 1 Million!!!!!

Went to my Ducati dealer in Amsterdam 2 weeks ago and to be honest I don’t like the looks of the streetfighter. It’s not aggressive enough for a bike like this. Just my 2 cents..

Ditch the Tuono exhaust valve for better noise and low rpm pull, it’s night and day!

Tuono for me as well, SFV4 is too angry, like most Ducatis.

Ducati bellissima! Tuono factory di +

Unfortunately you're comparison with the older SFS 2020 torque is way off the 2021> torque SFS with the peak torque 2000rpm lower so actually feels alot more punchy. I test rode the 2020 SFS and loved it I put a deposit down. Then heard they are doing a Euro 5 2021 version so ordered the later model and it is noticeably more meaty lower down. Its looking like the US version is still using the older spec engine (euro 4 equivalent) the test bike here is of the older 1st edition rear headers and heat shield.
