I know a lot of folks don't like paint jobs with a lot of graphics, but I really like the look of this. The International Motorcycle Show will be here in Seattle in three weeks and I will be looking to see if they have one of these.
 
I think that Aprillia have been listening to owners.

Rsv4 back end, check

Lightwieght wheels, check

Full ohlins suspenders, check

Not sure on the Rsv4 nose cone though.
 
things that put me off buying one this year.
seat was a bit to high for me,according to the blurb its going 15mm lower so tick in that box.
dealers too far away to be handy,there is no fix for that at the moment.
service intervals were too short,no info about that.
tank range /fuel consumption was crap,is adding more cc and more power going to help?
if they put a bigger tank on it,sure it would cost loads to run but i wouldnt have to stop for fuel twice as often as a friend on an il4.
no info on that.
picture looks like a mock up so ill wait till i see one.
more colour choice has to be a good thing.even if its just decals.
i live in hope that they tick a couple of my niggles then i will buy.
either way im not spending another year on the fz1 its going this spring.
 
It looks like a good bike. I've got a 2014 T and I love the bike...

But hate Aprilia and their lack of customer service, dealers, parts availability etc.

I wont be buying one.
 
Likewise I love my 2014 T....the dealer is about 25 miles away so not too bad, if they go under then its into London or Kent & serious grief, can't believe it in this day and age!!!...Must be the reason sales of Aprilia's are so poor its certainly not the bike!

MV Agusta has the same problem, fantastic bikes with a dealer network even worse than Aprilia.

According to this, it'll have a 4.9 gallon tank ---> https://www.crf250l.org/forums/thre...cma-2015-aprilia-tuono-v4-1100-preview.93482/
 
Thats 20% bigger than the 2014 tank ..... if its equally thirsty would that be about 120 miles to a tank ?

If so,i think i could live with that....


Am guessing that the current 1000 's mite become a bit more affordable...
 
Must admit i dont care that mine can empty its tank in well under 100 miles , or it drinks fuel on track like there's a hole in the bloody tank !! but every time i hear it on full chat it makes me smile my *** off , im 44 and not ready for a bike thats ' good on fuel ' :lol


So there :p
 
I really like it. Looks like a step forward on what is already a class leading bike.
