Positioned in Aprilia's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2007 Aprilia Tuono 1000R 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 139 HP (101.5 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 107 Nm (78.9 lb-ft) at 8,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox. With a specific output of 139.3 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (8,500 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), 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 1000R measures 185 kg (408 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.75 HP/kg (1.33 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 22-liter (5.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
