They are doing mobile servicing still. Had mine done a few weeks ago. One of their original mobile techs is doing it freelance, but endorsed by CCM so still official stamp. I had to ask for it though, I suspect they prefer you to use one of their franchised service centres. However, for me the convenience of a home service was an important factor when I bought it. Bike is brilliant on the bendy bits and now I’ve done the run in mileage I’ll try it on the A roads. So, if you want the mobile service then ask for it!
Great on the twisties aren’t they…Yes I must admit i quite liked the home service option, was so much easier.
Looks nice in white.
I think so too, limited edition speed white.
I had no idea the RSV4 didn’t have a fuel gauge, when the Tuono does! That’s unbelievably irritating. Bet it’s gonna be Aprilia’s new thing for ‘25 to get people to buy the newer models. 🙄🙄
Anyone know how to tell the difference between a shi and a sh mode my insurance says mybike is a 2014 sh mode but it doesn’t say sh mode anywhere on the bike but does say shi with a sticker on the side of the bike
Beautiful bike! Sounds amazing! I want one!
Hi my mate love my aprilia tuono 660 factory same problem but my bike tells me how much fuel is in it they are good looking bikes I've had the best time s
Started watching wondering, why would he put the camera right in front of the TFT??? Then in a few moments later... we find out. LOL Video and audio both great.
Thanks Jeff 😁
AY up Jake what a glorious day for a run out on the rocket ship great video and the sound was really good picked up the bike nicely too can't believe the lack of wind noise as well so good and that's with the mic not being your helmet as well if I am not mistaken very impressive well done .👌👍
Hi Malcolm weather was perfect! Yes i have the mic in the helmet with a Bluetooth connection directly to the camera seems to work well i think. Cheers 👍
Beautiful town/village/country side. Im dealing with the same . Its monsoon season on in my area so the storms dictate how long you stay outside. Ive ridden the bike 3 times now. What a riot. Put it in sport mode, what a FRICKIN BLAST!!! I miss my MV Brutale 800rr but not that much!😂🤘🏿 thanks for sharing mate!
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Do these come with a down shift blipper as standard?
Yes the RS model comes with it standard.
Are these targerted at women or was it some idiot reviewer I saw just saying that.
Thanks for a very informative video.
You’re welcome!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Shame they don't have this model here in New Zealand. We get the Dio 110, which is essentially a Vision.
The most annoying for this bike is the absence of the gauge for sure. Also, I wonder, compared to RS660, about the seat confort, is it as good, worse or better?
It’s fairly comfortable tbh considering it’s a Superbike. I can’t comment on the RS660 as haven’t sat on one yet.
Great review, thanks! Nice orange dial diver too. Seiko?
Thanks Rob, yes well spotted it’s a Seiko divers 😁
personally i keep bikes i like.
Almost every bike I’ve owned I have liked in one way or another…or i wouldn’t have bought them. However it’s just not possible to keep hold of them all for both financially and space reasons unfortunately.
Did you find any vibration through the handlebars causing any tingling in the hands?
Wasn’t on the bike very long but yes it’s quite a vibrant machine.
Its a good looking bike and I like the noise it makes being a single, thing is though its twice the price of a Brat 125 ( I have one) but its the same weight and same dimensions, so at first look it would seem a bit pricey which is off putting, seven large is a lot of money for a bike that put next to mine don't look dissimilar ? One thing I'll mention is the digital dash on mine which is 17% out, It say's 60mph but its actually 50mph, to do 30mph the speedo has to say 37mph, not sure if it can be re calibrated and TBH i'd change it for something bigger and more accurate if possible, the one on the bike can be bought off fleabay for £20 ... : (. I like the blue/grey color. might even spray mine the same, mines copper which is different but not when most of the Brats sold buyers pick the copper color. The filler cap looks the same as mine and its a faff because it don't snap shut, you close it and turn the key to lock it, I am however really pleased with mine overall it does ride great and feels well planted round bends, I would buy a Brute but I'll wait for a 2nd hand one I think !
Yes would have thought the second hand market would eventually have a fair amount available. Don’t think they’ve been out that long but not sure, also your speedometer should definitely be fairly easy to calibrate. Have you recently had a front tyre fitted maybe causing a difference in reading your speed. Cheers 👍
I own the same bike with Time Attack livery. Basically this is a bike that was designed primarily as a track day platform that can be converted into a full blown race bike. You take all the plastics off and put race fairings on, so no need to make the plastics fancy. It would just increase the price. The reason for no fuel gauge is to save weight and cost. The fuel filler hole is so small to seal with a quick filler can.
Nice one….bit strange having cruise control though 🤷
@@RiderReviews Yeah I have to agree it's a bit all over the place. But awesome bike nonetheless.
Cruise control was easy to add with full ride by wire. It was essentially just some additional programming to the aprc and ECU. No weight added. Not many full superbikes out there have a fuel gauge. It's just not something that's needed and they figured the additional weight of the level sensor and new dash face, why do all that? All bikes these days have a tiny gas and cap filler, it's to reduce off gassing of the fuel during refilling. Blame the tree huggers. @@RiderReviews
to reset the speed/ trip etc, just hold the computer button down for a couple of seconds 👍
Brilliant thanks!
Just picked mine up on Saturday....still jaw dropped that is in my trailer. Have not road yet due to storms in my area but thank you for prepping me so to speak. I traded my MV Agusta Brutale in for it. A little sad but not much. Cant wait to hit the road. Keep the vids coming. Safe rides brother. 🤘🏿😎
You’ll absolutely love it I’m sure! Ride safe 👍
Do you get any vibration though the handle bars or pegs .. My 2023 S1000 RR has just started to have a high frequency vibration which is making my fingers and toes go numb after 30 minutes riding (BMW says there is nothing wrong with the bike) and to be honest I'm over it and I think BMW quality control is going down the drain .. So I'm now looking at getting the RSV4 factory .
It’s fairly good tbh even on longer ride outs Paul.
Nice, any overheating issues in slow traffic? I bought the 2024 base version and it overheats. I can tell that you like that bike.
No issues so far 👍
One word? Awesome!
Bought one Saturday. Getting used to the forward controls. It’s quite the thing. I’m very happy with it. Very.
That’s great to hear!
Nice upload, thanks. I'm considering buying one as they look great and are very light. My only concern is that it may not have enough power and performance for me. My next stage is to test ride one and find out. I didnt know they had events so will check those out.
Thanks! Yes should be quite easy to get yourself a test ride, let me know how it goes.
@@RiderReviews thanks, I will 👍
I have the SH 150i ..better as can keep up with highway traffic..mine has no ABS which is it only sad point.
Whats the total tank range on it mate? There isnt a fuel gauge, but there is a low warning light, any idea when that comes on? Cheers.
Fuel light comes on around 100 miles, I think you’d get about 130 miles to a tank.
why the handle bar cam.we want to see roads postions
To hopefully make the video more engaging.
Hello Great content, have you found any oil leaks on this Aprilia, mine was leaking from the stator cover as well as the oil Pan!
Thanks! not found any oil leaks at all.
How much cc?
600cc
@@RiderReviews thank you
It looks like a bigger ct-125 without the higher air intake and a regular suspension system.
Great fun to ride!
Krazy Horse at Bury St Edmunds are dealers. Closer than Bolton. I'm in West Norfolk/North Cambs if you fancy a ride over. I'm thinking of getting a CCM in the future. Don't have a bike at the moment but have been riding on and off since 1977
Yes possibly would have rode over there for a service but mine is now sold. Would highly recommend you test ride one.
Just brought a new 2024 model. I love it, but I do find my coccyx hurts. Am I sitting wrong
Very nice! I found it very comfortable but maybe try sitting further back in the seat for more support.
@RiderReviews thanks I'll try that. See how I go, well tried it but no better, I should point out I have a collapsed spine, so I think it may not be the seat but my back, so I'm looking for a replacement seat
Bought a 2018 Honda Vision yesterday on 2500 miles, the first thing that struck me was how insanely quiet the engine was, I barely realised it’s started when I hit the ignition. I then rode it 250 miles home after collection… Was very surprised to a see a 110 hit 60mph-68mph
Great aren’t they!
Hey, Ive been riding Jap bikes for decades until in 2020 I decided on something special and ever since it has only been and will only be Aprilia. I am officially a Aprilia snob and proud of it. I have a 2014 RSV4 Factory and a 2017 RSV4-RF. I mostly track with a little on the road, they are so appreciated on the track, they are basically a race bike with lights strapped on. Its the 12k service that'll 'Costa molto Signore!' All other servcings are pretty much the same, but then its like having a Lamborghini (Ducati=Ferrari) Do the gearing thing on your's even though Aprilia might have kind of changed the gearing a little. They love the track and love being spanked good on track (as long as you know how to). I have mine Professionally setup for the track and Michelin PowerCup 2 fitted. Hopefully we'll get good weather this summer for many trackdays eh! Bet you love your 2024!
On my Tuono, I can notice A3 feels softer on big hits and more bouncy on a sort of uneven lumpy kind of road. But I find that A1 & A2 are exactly the same, and when you go into the menus they are both on exactly the same values. I’m going to have a play and stiffen A1 up, maybe the same amount as A3 is from A2 but in the opposite direction. I’ve not had a play with the manual mode yet. I also have AWC on 1 as I’ve found everything else too intrusive. I’ve not dared to try launch control yet 😬 I only realised last week that it’s really easy to go through the suspension modes on the fly while riding! I’ve found neutral a few times in each direction while riding, but I’ve always put it down to me not being firm enough with it! I don’t use the dealer for services anymore as my warranty is up, I do it all myself to the schedule.
Yes i think it’s a case of playing about with the suspension settings for best results. Like you say it’s very easy to adjust modes on the fly which is useful, I’d be interested to know how you get on with the setup. What oil do you prefer to use when changing oil and filter? Cheers Jake.
@@RiderReviews my dealer is less than 2 miles from home so I just went with the putoline that they have there in stock and a genuine filter. I’ll probably go down the Motul route next time though if I’m honest. I bought mine second hand, less than a year old and just over 1k miles and the rear tyre was shot! The sides had never been touched but the middle was laughable it was so squared off so I was confident it hadn’t been abused, not round corners anyway!
@ShalomBrother always seems such a waste of a good tyre if they’re boxed off….I’m more of a twisty road fan tbh 👍
Good to see you out Jake hope all is well I am sure it is on that beauty 😉definitely one you look back at when you get off the bike . Haven't even been out yet put a new fuel tap on last may and went out and found that this ethanol fuel had destroyed the new tap and fuel locked the bike again . She is now in the shop to be done since I have no time with all the other stuff going on right now but still nice to see your having some fun mate well done ! look forward to the next one .👌👍
Hi Malcolm all good thanks! Yes was great to get out in some sunshine at last. Hope you get your bike sorted ready for the summer. Cheers take care 👍
Went out on mine today. i use 5th and 6th just to hear that burble and pop on the overrun.
Great sound! 👍
No fuel gauge for such an expensive machine is just crazy. What were they thinking? Even the cheapest Chinese made motorcycle has has sort of fuel gauge.
Ok I got my T100. I don’t think the T100 has a rain mode, according to the manual and all of the googling I have done. Am I missing something?
Sorry my mistake…..I think you’re right!
I owned a 2013 rsv4 and now a 2019 Tuono and that hole has always been that small, its a pain in the ass but you get use to it lol. My next one is most likely the 2024 SE-09 SBK RSV4 unless I wait for the next gen that might show up next year.
Yes I’m getting used to filling it up with fuel now…definitely be interesting to see what’s next on the cards for the RSV4 factory. Cheers 👍
I pick my 2021 up tomorrow, got the blue one. :)
Very nice indeed!
I had a Sukida scooter after a few bad experiences with Chinese bikes. Have to say 22k miles later, it was a very solid bike. Shame you can't seem to source them new anymore.
Glad to hear it Kevin…yes they’re not all bad are they. 👍
The first thing I noticed was NO GAS gauge. What the hell !!....lol....my mentality is "Next"; meaning I won't be buying that bike...lol...same thing for ducati v4R/v4S/and Streetfighter; although the ducati diavel V4 is nice looking and has a gas gauge.....but BMW s1000rr sounds better and better by the day...haha😁
Test ride the RSV4 and you’ll probably change your mind…😁
I have a 2024 Grom, 142mpg and filled it up yesterday with E5 premium and it cost £6.01p, I have an xadv 750 and this is my commuting to work bike, I got rid of mySmart car and bought the Grom, and it gets me to work in15 mins passing all the car drivers stuck in traffic. 😊👍🏻
That’s a great example of economy commuting nice one 👍
@@RiderReviews it certainly is 😃👍🏻
I pick up my 2021 Speedmaster next week!
Exciting times! Nice one. 👍
You should of got the r if you ride that slow
Why not get it in India ?
