Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike – Specification
Euro 4 Engine, the Same Exciting Performance
The all-new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike comes with the compact and powerful 65-degree V4 engine with unique characteristics. This new V architecture makes this engine extremely compact lengthways, which help in achieving the centralize weights and to have a compact and strong chassis.
This modification has earned the approval of Euro 4 and it has increased the overall reliability and performance, without sacrificing the stylish look of the bike. The new exhaust system has the best silencer, which uses the double oxygen sensor and has a built in valve. The ECU of an engine is entirely new and it uses the superior calculating capacity able to manage the rise in max rev i.e. 500 rpm higher.
In order to ensure max reliability, min friction and the piston pins have DLC surface treatment, whereas the connecting rod heads boast the surface honing treatment. The combustion chamber is no longer obtained through the fusion process, but with the use of a numerically controlled mechanical process. The gearbox is using the linear sensor, which guarantees an impeccable gearshift operation.
Suspension and Brakes Directly from the New RSV4
The all-new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike features the best quality suspension and braking system for best handling and stability. These systems are derived from the Aprilia RSV4. It gives the best braking and suspension performance.
The front Brembo braking system comes directly from the one used in new RSV4 containing the pair of new steel discs that have been increased to 330 mm. They are gripped by the new Monobloc M50 calipers and are activated by the radial master cylinder on its handlebar.
Completely Revamped Electronics
The all-new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike features the greatest innovation in terms of electronics. The Aprilia Performance Ride Control (APRC) is patented control suite derived directly from the winning technology in the world Superbike, which is considered as the most complete and refined than those technologies available in the market.
The fourth generation of APRC comes as a standard on the Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike, which fits perfectly with its new electronic management of the full Ride-by-Wire throttle. It has allowed the superfluous throttle body electronic management components to reduce about 590 grams.
The repositioning of the inertial platform allows the APRC operation has enhanced the accurate detection of the dynamic condition of the motorcycle, resulting in more efficient electronic control strategies. The new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike uses the following the features:
- New Aprilia Traction Control (ATC): It comes with eight different settings with the practical joystick, now it has been fine-tuned for higher performance operating logic.
- New Aprilia Wheelie Control (AWC): It is totally adjustable on three different levels, which lets for more defined operating strategies thanks to the repositioning of the inertial platform. The Wheelie control is adjustable without closing the throttle.
- New Aprilia Launch Control (ALC): This system comes with three different settings, which uses the new operating strategies.
- New Aprilia Quick Shift (AQS): It is the electronic gearbox that lets the rider to shift without closing the throttle and without using the clutch. The downshift function allows the clutchless downshifting. Its new open-throttle downshifting mechanism is exclusive.
- New Aprilia Pit Limiter (APL): It is the system that lets the rider to select and limit the maximum speed allowed in pit lane at the track or simple to make it easier to comply with the posted speed limits on the track and road.

The new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike uses the advanced multi-map Cornering ABS system is developed with the close collaboration with the Bosch to ensure the maximum safety without sacrificing the performance.
The new 9.1 MP system is fully contained weight and dimensions for optimizing braking and the intervention of ABS in corners. Due to the specific algorithm used in the new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike, which constantly monitors the various parameters such as pitch, yaw angle, a pressure applied to the front brake lever for maintaining the ratio between the deceleration and stability.
The all-new ABS system works with the Aprilia Rear Lift Mitigation (RLM) system, which limits the lift for the rear wheel during abrupt braking. The Cornering ABS is tuned according to the standards of Aprilia’s specific indications and is adjustable in 3 levels of sensibility plus it can be switched off. For the best riding experience, the three Cornering ABS maps can be combined with any of three new engine maps (Sport, Track, and Race).
The all-new color TFT digital instrumentation features an exceptional display option. The two selectable screen pages correspond with many indexes. There are many version of V4-MP, the Aprilia multimedia platform lets the rider to connect the smartphone to your bike. The all-new V4-MP adds the new connection protocol, which reduces the consumption of smartphone battery to the minimum level plus it gives the larger range of circuits already mapped in which rider can manage the electronic settings corners by the corner.
The V4-MP includes the new information system newly introduced by Aprilia for the first time in new Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017 Aprilia Sports Bike. This system allows the rider to control the voice commands and incoming calls with the rider’s smartphone.
