Overview
The performance of a superbike with the agility of a naked
For lovers of naked supersports and those who always lust after "more power", Aprilia has created the Tuono V4 R ABS, a motorbike with the invincible heart of an RSV4 and a feline body designed to excel under the fiercest acceleration and braking in and to cling on through any type of bend and simply devour straight sections of road.
Tuono V4 R ABS:
The Evolution of the Superbike With Upright Handlebars
In 2009 Aprilia, revolutionised the superbike segment with the introduction of the innovative, unique RSV4 which to this day remains the benchmark. This bike won four world championship titles in the SBK series. The Tuono V4 R arrived in 2011, a direct descendant of the unbeatable RSV4. It was the most powerful, technological and sophisticated naked ever produced, the most mind-blowing, wicked and efficient machine ever created and was dedicated to those aficionados who longed for a bike that was, to put it simply, "excellent” in every way. The know-how gained from years of experience of winning at the highest level allowed Aprilia to go that bit further: the new Tuono V4 R ABS is better performing, more fun, more efficient and safer. Just one version is available. It comes with the full electronics package fitted as standard and there is a choice of two colours (black or white). The new Tuono V4 R ABS raises thesupersports bar again by also being more comfortable for road use.
Improved Comfort and Performance
The Tuono V4 R ABS is the heir to the bike acclaimed by the world motorcycling press as the naked that was the most exciting, efficient and fun to ride with a level of performance andsophistication never before seen. Not only does the new bike get all the important up-dates introduced with great success in early 2013 to the RSV4 Factory ABS and RSV4 R ABS, it also features a new saddle and a revised standard suspension set-up (fully adjustable) to improve comfort during road use. Other rider comfort changes can be seen in the new tank which now holds 18.5 litres and in pads on the side of the tank which increase feel for the rider under braking and while cornering.

Unique Engine Characteristics
Extremely compact, as slim as a twin-cylinder and installed in an ultra-compact chassis, the 65° V4 engine on the V4 R ABS is the epitome of Italian engineering ingenuity.
