Aprilia Tuareg 660 Rally 2026

Aprilia Tuareg 660 Rally 2026

The Aprilia Tuareg Rally proves that even an adventure bike with 660 cubic centimetres can be a lot of fun in today's world. It combines the best of both worlds - the power and character of a real rally bike with the comfort of an adventure bike. Off-road, it provides an enormous amount of feedback and quickly inspires confidence. On the road, it scores points with its quickshifter, cruise control and travel accessories direct from Aprilias.

Revised engine mapping with poisonous throttle response

Very stable off-road handling

Amazing sound for Euro 5+

Cruise control included

Narrower rims for proper enduro tyres

Easy operation of the Advanced Rider Assistance Systems

Stand comes to heel when standing

Linear suspension reduces comfort on the road

Frequent shifting necessary for constant power

Splash guard manageable

BMW R 1250 GS Adventure 2019

BMW R 1250 GS Adventure 2019

The all-purpose weapon from Bavaria that can also handle ambitious off-road rides with ease. Thanks to an extra 2 centimetres of suspension travel and 10 litres more fuel in the tank, no tour is too far and no challenge too great. The comparatively low centre of gravity helps with handling and the more powerful engine brings it much closer to the normal R 1250 GS in terms of riding dynamics. In the new 1250 model generation, it offers not only the revised engine, which brings even better rideability, but also a plus in standard equipment and safety. The fiercest competitor for the Adventure is nevertheless lurking in its own house, because even the conventional, less expensive GS is already a fine all-rounder.

Great ride comfort

extreme range

good ergonomics

excellent weather protection

bulbous torque

clean response

customisation options.
