How Much Power Does the 2023 Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory 1100 Make?

The Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory has been the benchmark for hyper-nakeds for many years. A multitime Cycle World Ten Best winner, the Tuono is an extremely refined naked-bike platform derived from its RSV4 superbike. Utilizing a 65-degree V-4 engine, the Aprilia Tuono is equally known for its beautiful exhaust harmonics as it is for its exhilarating performance.

A 1,077cc liquid cooled four-cylinder DOHC engine offers a relatively flat torque curve and linear powerband great for trackdays, backroads, and even commuting. Highly refined Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 semi-active suspension, a Magneti Marelli 11MP ECU, Aprilia Performance Ride Control, Aprilia quickshifter, Brembo M50 Monoblock radial calipers, and aerodynamic winglets give the Tuono V4 Factory its racebike persona.

On our in-house Dynojet 250i dynamometer, the 2023 Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory produced 154.5 hp at 11,500 rpm and 80.2 lb.-ft. of torque at 9,200 rpm. Weighing 470 pounds on the Cycle World automotive scales, the bike’s power numbers are not class leading, but the Italian naked bike still manages to outperform many of its rivals. Its exquisite craftsmanship and highly refined demeanor make it the best sub-$20,000 hyper-naked on the market, as we discovered in a recent comparison. The Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory can be a fine commuter, but its real purpose is to deliver superbike technology and performance in a package suitable for everyday riding.
