Pros and Cons in comparison

Aprilia Caponord 1200 ABS 2013

The new touring enduro from Aprilia rides well, but nowhere better than a competitor. In bends, however, the damping proves to be a little too soft. The nimble appearance is somewhat deceptive - the Aprilia is a very comfortable touring bike.

Appropriate appearance

cruise control and pannier system (optimal) included.

Radical seating position

limited lean angle clearance.
