Looks like the Tuono/naked variant is coming earlier than expected clap:

This is going to be a hoot!



Mod Note: Our Aprilia Tuono 457 Review has been taken live at this link. Please continue the discussion over on the new thread. Thanks!

Undisguised photos of the Tuono 457.

I thought it'd look like the 660's or how Tuono's in general look like, semi fairing and short windscreen. This one looks like a "true" naked.
Looks good in the red-black paint scheme, the silver frame complements it nicely.

Looks great I would say. Plus should cost a bit less due to lack of fairing. They just need to fix their sales/service network like Triumph is doing with Bajaj to lower cost of ownership.

That looks real good :) They did put in a lot more effort than just making a half faired typical tuono like their bigger cousins.

Looks nothing like the bigger Tuono but absolutely loving it from these pics and youtube shorts. Proper naked version of the RS457 it is.
Hopefully, should be 5 kilos lighter and ~20k cheaper than the RS with the fairings off.

Aprilia has unveiled the brand-new Tuono 457 at EICMA 2024 - a street naked which uses the RS 457 as the technical platform base.

The motorcycle will be characterised by its power/weight ratio (just 159 kg dry weight for 35kW of power) - the maximum possible for a motorbike that can be ridden with an A2 licence. The Tuono 457 is powered by the parallel twin-cylinder engine from the RS 457 with a maximum power of 35 kW (47.6 hp) at 9,400 rpm and torque of 43.5 Nm at 6,700 rpm, 82% of which is already available at 3,000 rpm.

The technical features are top of the range: aluminium frame (the only one of its kind in this segment) and cutting-edge electronics, including Ride by Wire throttle, three Riding Modes, ABS and traction control.

Err do you mean 159 kg? 59 kg would be unrealistic :p

I must confess, I am not a fan of the aesthetics. I was expecting a baby Tuono 660, and this ain't it.

True. Have corrected to 159kgs!

But the official press release received does mention as 59 - cross checked that it is not a typo. :)

Shouldn't this make less power or carry more fuel considering how Aprilia made a huge fuss about the A2 weight limit with the RS457. Throwing a randomly generated number between 140-200kg seems to be par for the course for these European brands

Weight and engine specs seem to be the same as the RS 457 - looks like Aprilia is quoting dry weight instead of wet.

The dry weight of the RS 457 is 159 kg, which goes up to 175 kgs when filled with fluids.

The primary intended market for this, like the RS457, is EU/UK right? Is it me, or does the DRL remind anyone of TVS models?

Very polarising headlight which on a lighter note reminds me of Dragon face in "How to train your Dragon".

This bike does have my interest though, impressive on paper, looks I could make peace with time and would expect it to cost below the RS 457.

That was my thought too. Since this is essentially based on the RS457, the fairing alone cannot be 15+ kilos heavy!! Maybe 2-3 kilos here and there is fine. This looks good until the headlight which looks like a TVS Raider and very weird. Totally has my interest since I am more of a sport naked instead of a faired bike kind of guy. So would closely be watching for this to be launched in India.

This design is so unlike the Tuono that when I first saw teasers leaked on some random site, I thought they were fake. Nonetheless, Kudos to Aprilia for this. Baby tuareg next would be a killer combo and will cement the brand in our country. Agree with the comments, front looks TVS-ish.
