The Aprilia Tuono V990, launched in 2002, was a game-changer in the naked sportbike segment. Known for its sharp styling, potent engine, and impressive handling, it was a direct rival to the Ducati Monster S4R and the Triumph Speed Triple. The Tuono V990 was conceived by Aprilia with a simple but effective formula: take the already-successful RSV Mille superbike, remove the fairings, and add a more upright riding position. This approach resulted in a motorcycle that offered the performance and agility of a sportsbike with the comfort and practicality of a naked bike. At the heart of the Tuono V990 was a 998cc 90° V-twin engine, derived from the RSV Mille. Its power output was rated at 127 hp and 76 lb-ft of torque, making it one of the most powerful naked bikes of its time. This engine was paired with a six-speed gearbox and was renowned for its smooth power delivery and throaty exhaust note.
The Tuono V990's chassis was just as impressive as its engine. It featured a lightweight aluminum frame, a fully adjustable Sachs front fork, and a Sachs monoshock rear suspension. These components provided precise handling and excellent feedback to the rider, making the Tuono V990 a delight to ride on both the road and the track. Overall, the Aprilia Tuono V990 was a remarkably successful motorcycle, and it quickly gained a reputation as a highly capable and exciting machine. Its combination of performance, style, and practicality made it a popular choice for both seasoned riders and those new to the world of naked sportbikes. The Tuono V990's legacy continued with the V4 and later iterations, solidifying Aprilia's position as a leader in the naked sportbike segment.
