Pros and Cons in comparison

Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS 2023

Triumph has created an incredibly good all-rounder with the new Speed Triple 1200 RS. The engine can be moved very comfortably at low revs. The vehicle is very accessible when needed and inspires confidence. However, anyone who puts the spurs to the compact-looking motorbike reaps cruel acceleration and hard braking. The chassis is quite tight overall - as a result, it loses a little of its accessibility.

Incredibly universal - easy to drive in city traffic but also super fast when needed

Rev-happy and powerful engine

Can be driven quietly when needed

Light and compact ride

Stable handling even in fast corners

Strong brakes

Precise handling

Beautiful details

Timeless elegance.

Load change reactions at low speeds

slightly too low steering angle

narrow knee angle for tall people

traction control too defensive even in track mode

vibrations on handlebars

Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory 2023

The engine of the Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory gains in precision due to the change to Euro5 conformity, but remains unchanged in essence - a potent fellow that wants to be revved! The handling also remains sporty and demanding, while the others can take it easy. The electronically adjustable Öhlins suspension works excellently and the electronics package is state-of-the-art. In terms of looks, the new Tuono V4 1100 Factory is now based on the small Tuono 660, especially the front with the raised LED daytime running lights looks gorgeous. All in all, a great evolution of an already good motorbike.

Powerful V4 engine

wonderful sound

sporty seating position

excellent, electronic Öhlins suspension

extensive electronics package

pretty looks

is somewhat begging from the rev range
