Positioned in Aprilia's naked motorcycle lineup, the 2010 Aprilia Tuono 1000 R FACTORY pairs a 997.6 cc (60.9 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 136.8 HP (99.8 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 107 Nm (78.9 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 137.1 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Tuono 1000 R FACTORY measures 181 kg (399 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.76 HP/kg (1.32 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 18-liter (4.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
