Engines in both models are noew Euro4 compliant, with Aprilia claiming 201bhp for the RSV4 RF and 175bhp for the naked Tuono.
Suspension has been changed for 2017, with the RSV4 RF now using the latest generation Ohlins NIX fork and TTX shock. The Tuono receives the NIX forks, with the TTX shock available as an accessory. Both RSV4 and Tuono get Brembo M50 monobloc calipers, gripping 330m discs.
Aprilia have made a host of changes to their Aprilia Performance Ride Control (APRC) system for 2017 to offer more control over the RSV4 and Tuono's characteristics.
