Engineered by Aprilia for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2020 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 RR pairs a 1077 cc (65.7 cu in) liquid-cooled v4, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 173 HP (126.3 kW) at 11,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 121 Nm (89.2 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 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (9,000 rpm) and peak power (11,000 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 RR measures 209 kg (461 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.83 HP/kg (1.21 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 1,450 mm (57.1 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.

Torque
Torque is useful for judging real-world pull, especially for touring, commuting and loaded riding.
Seat Height
Check the seat height against your inseam and riding posture before choosing a motorcycle.
Weight
Compare weight carefully because it affects low-speed handling, parking and confidence.
Fuel Capacity
Fuel capacity helps estimate touring range and how often you may need to stop.
Brakes
Brake setup is worth comparing if you ride in traffic, mountains or with a passenger.
Suspension
Suspension details can matter for comfort, road feel and long-distance riding.
