Built around Aprilia's naked motorcycle platform, the 2015 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory utilizes a 1077 cc (65.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 173 HP (126.3 kW) at 11,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 120 Nm (88.5 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 160.6 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (9,000 rpm) and peak power (11,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the Tuono V4 1100 Factory measures 182 kg (401 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.95 HP/kg (1.05 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 825 mm (32.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,445 mm (56.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 18.5-liter (4.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
