Aprilia Tuono 1000 Factory
APRILIA TUONO 1000 R FACTORY - about Aprilia and the word
“Factory” casts a spell that transports you directly
into the world of racing and racetrack victories. The word
“Factory” also means the very best technology that
can be applied to a motorcycle. The Aprilia Tuono 1000 R Factory
lives up to its name by being the most special, most powerful,
most exclusive and most refined of all Tuonos.
Here is a bike that really has no rivals. Whatever competition
the Tuono has taken part in, it has emerged the uncontested
winner and most impressive protagonist. Unrivalled on the naked
racing scene, the Tuono has even taken on the fastest superbikes
on their home ground – the racetrack – and won.
On the road the Tuono is in a class of its own. On the racetrack
it is a proven winner. Hungry for success, the Tuono has been an
exceptional flag-bearer for Aprilia’s motorcycle design
philosophy even outside its native Italy, and has demonstrated
its prowess in epic races like the Isle of Man TT and the Macao
GP. Now the Tuono 1000 R Factory has picked up where the
victorious Tuono Racing left off, with even better technical
characteristics and performance.
With the arrival of the new Factory version, the fastest naked on
the track and the meanest on the road clearly demonstrates its
racing spirit. The Tuono 1000 R Factory delivers power that is
simply unthinkable for any other twin, with a chassis that is
more sophisticated than ever and easily on a par with the best
superbikes. The new Tuono 1000 R Factory is a truly professional
machine for all those riders who demand the state of the art in
technology and the absolute maximum in performance. Expert riders
with a taste for the exceptional will know how to appreciate the
record-beating performance of this stupendous street-fighter
A new engine, new suspension, ultra-light wheels and a host of
carbon fibre components have boosted performance and reduced
weight to a new record for this type of bike. As with the RSV
1000 R Factory, from which it has been derived, the Tuono 1000 R
Factory is designed and built for “total ridability”,
a concept that has always characterised high performance Aprilia
motorcycles.
