Pros and Cons in comparison
Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 2022
Like its predecessor, the Aprilia Tuono V4 is a naked bike and not an explicit touring machine. However, the technicians from Noale have very cleverly raised the handlebars compared to the Factory version, fitted a more comfortable saddle and attached a larger windshield. This means that the Tuono V4 still looks really smart, but can actually go on bigger tours than its extremely sporty sister. The suspension of the normal Tuono V4 has to do without electronic adjustability (which would make perfect sense on a touring machine), but the Sachs suspension elements are fully adjustable. Handling, on the other hand, is wonderfully sporty thanks to the stable chassis, and the brakes can be applied firmly without appearing too aggressive. There is no lack of electronic helpers, while the standard cruise control emphasises the touring character, wheelie and launch control make it clear that the "Tourono V4" also wants to let it rip!
Ducati SuperSport 950 S 2021
Despite its sportiness, Ducati's redesigned and equipped Supersport 950 /S offers a good degree of suitability for everyday use and sufficient power for the country road or occasional trackdays. If you want to remedy the last remaining shortcoming, the throttle response in the lower rev range, which is characterised by load changes, you could consider changing the secondary gear ratio from 15/43 to 14/43. The one-tooth smaller drive pinion costs only a few euros, improves throttle response at low revs and also keeps handlebar and mirror vibrations within acceptable limits.
