£11,000 Tuono ‘is too much’

Aprilia’s UK importer wants the factory to rethink the £11,000 asking price of its new Tuono. The firm is making just 200 of the 130bhp RSV Mille R-engined naked bikes for sale via the internet on May 15.

The Tuono features Ohlins suspension, Brembo brakes and featherweight carbon-Kevlar bodywork.
