Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 RR 2016

Those who have to watch their money even in higher price ranges are better off with the Tuono V4 1100 RR than with the Factory version - because it offers less: The chassis is only slightly less sensitive than the more expensive Öhlins components of the Factory, but offers a little more comfort on bumpy roads and the narrower tyres (190/55-17 on the RR instead of 200/55-17 on the Factory!) can tip the scales in hairpin bends. The RR version also has the harmonious V4 power plant that gives so much pleasure. All in all, the "cheaper" Tuono can still do more than many of its direct competitors.

With the BMW S 1000 R, you notice both the close relationship to the S 1000 RR superbike and the endeavour to equip the machine with a high degree of comfort for country roads and everyday use. Accordingly, the 1000cc four-cylinder power unit is brute and yet easily controllable, and the seating position is correspondingly sporty and comfortable. The fact that the S 1000 R is one of the most affordable power naked bikes is surprising and very pleasing, although one must not get hold of the list of optional extras - because thanks to the many irresistible features, it will certainly be more expensive.
