Aprilia Tuono 1000 R Factory (2008)

The Aprilia Tuono 1000 R Factory is a limited-edition naked streetfighter that promises to deliver unparalleled performance and handling.

Its 60-degree V-Twin engine, derived from the Magnesium Evolution unit used in the RSV Mille, produces a claimed 139 horsepower at the crankshaft and 79 lb/ft of torque, marking a significant increase over its standard counterpart.

The Factory Tuono’s riding experience is defined by its exceptional power delivery, thanks to improved injection and ignition mapping, as well as larger exhaust valves and downpipes.

This potent machine comes equipped with a ram-air intake system, hydraulic clutch, and PPC (Pneumatic Power Clutch) system, all feeding into a 6-speed gearbox that allows the rider to harness its immense power.

The result is a thrilling riding experience that will leave even the most seasoned enthusiasts grinning from ear to ear.
