Aprilia Tuono 1000 R Factory, 2009

Aprilia Tuono 1000 R Factory 2009

Style
The design On the Tuono 1000, is at the service of performance and comfort. Every little detail has been developed not only to attract admiration for its refined style, but to be totally functional.

The main characteristics of the new V 60 Magnesium Evolution engine:
Optimised cylinder heads with bigger valves and one spark plug per cylinder;
57 mm throttle bodies with one injector per cylinder;
high strength conrods;
minimum weight thanks to the extensive use of magnesium;
close-ratio gearbox;
dry sump lubrication with a double trochoid pump, separate oil tank and oil cooler;
mixed gear and chain valve timing. The drive gears (one for each timing chain) are located inside the crankcase to keep the cylinder heads as compact as possible;
AVDC (Anti Vibration Double Countershaft);
Aprilia's patented PPC (Pneumatic Power Clutch) hydraulically operated, power assisted clutch system for controlling rear wheel bounce under deceleration

Frame
Every aspect of the frame, fork and suspensions has been fine tuned for perfect weight distribution. The frame is a combination of aluminium-silicon alloy castings and Peraluman 450 pressed parts.

Suspension
The fork is a Showa upside down unit, with 43 mm stanchions for a perfect balance between precision on the racetrack and comfort on the road. And to ensure that the ideal setup can be achieved for all styles and conditions, on the road and on the track alike, the fork is fully adjustable in spring preload and in compression and rebound damping.

Braking System
The braking system has undergone a number of major changes. The Tuono 1000 is equipped with Brembo Gold radial calipers featuring two separate sintered pads.
The two 320 mm floating steel discs feature a narrower braking band to minimise inertia and weight and are fixed in place by Aprilia's exclusive six spoke flange.

Components
The dashboard is a mixed (digital-analog) unit. It uses the data received over the CAN line to perform an essential autodiagnostic function for which it incorporates a dedicated memory.

The LED backlighting can be adjusted to three levels of intensity.
The headlight cluster is derived from that of the RSV, and incorporates four light units for perfect night-time visibility.
The new tail light cluster features the innovative design and LED lighting of the RSV.
The ignition key is internally coded, and the ignition block is fitted with an engine immobiliser as standard.
