Pros and Cons in comparison

Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory 2022

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

Kawasaki Ninja 650 2019

The Ninja 650 firmly stamps its predecessor (Er-6f). The engine has mastered the Euro 4 hurdle well and serves up a very usable 68 hp, the chassis is simply great for this class, and the weight reduction of 18(!) kilos compared to the ER-6f justifies reverent nods.

Transparent chassis for sport

playful and good-natured handling, excellent brakes, sharp looks a la ZX-10R

resilient engine.

Little sound from the series pot

engine shows slight vibrations
