The Aprilia Tuono V4 Rr has a top speed of 270 km/h, produces 175 hp and weighs 184 kg. Motoryk rates it 9/10.
The Aprilia Tuono V4 RR was introduced in 2015 as the top-spec, track-focused variant of the Tuono V4 lineup, derived directly from the RSV4 superbike with upright naked ergonomics. It featured Öhlins suspension, Brembo brakes, and an Aprilia Performance Ride Control (APRC) electronics suite, making it one of the most technologically advanced naked motorcycles of its era. The Tuono V4 RR is widely regarded as a benchmark hypernaked, celebrated for its razor-sharp handling, explosive power, and near-superbike performance in a more versatile package.

What Buyers Should Know
Track-Bred V4 Engine
The 1077cc V4 engine is derived directly from Aprilia's RSV4 superbike, delivering 175hp in a naked package. This shared lineage means proven race performance, but valve clearance checks every 15,000km are critical and can be costly.
Strong Resale Retention
The Tuono V4 RR holds its value exceptionally well compared to Japanese rivals due to limited production numbers and high demand. Well-maintained examples typically retain 70-80% of their value after two years.
Watch the Electronics
Early models (2015-2018) occasionally reported throttle-by-wire glitches and APRC electronics faults, often resolved by software updates. Always verify the bike has the latest firmware before purchasing.

Used Buyer Review
"The ultimate used naked if the service history checks out."
$14,000-$19,000 usedThe Tuono V4 RR is genuinely one of the best used buys in the supernaked segment if you know what you're getting into. That 175hp V4 engine is an absolute animal — tractable enough for street riding but absolutely savage when you pin it. The Öhlins suspension and Brembo brakes are proper track-spec hardware that most bikes twice the price can't match. Just make sure the previous owner wasn't a track day hero who thrashed it without proper maintenance intervals. Here's the honest part nobody tells you: these bikes can be expensive to own. Service intervals are tight, and dealership labor isn't cheap. Check the valve clearances history religiously — skipped services are a red flag. Inspect the frame sliders and bodywork for track damage. Electronics suite with APRC is genuinely brilliant and makes the power usable for most experienced riders. Buy a clean, documented example and you've got arguably the best all-round performance naked on the market. Buy a mystery bike and you're gambling with a complex Italian thoroughbred.
