The KTM is and remains the most brutal naked bike on the market. The upright seating position combined with the wild V2 power make it seem more brutal than it is on paper. It has been improved precisely at its weakest points. The engine now runs smoother, the shift assistant brings calm in the acceleration phase and the chassis has been improved. It still loves the wild chase more than high cornering speed on long bends.
Aprilia Tuono V4 R 2011
The best thing about the Tuono is its unbridled power, its all-pervading hardness, the incomparably awesome V4 roar and the fact that I would buy exactly this bike if I didn't have the privilege of riding everything anyway. Hardest naked bike ever.
