With its aggressive styling and muscular stance, this motorcycle is designed for those who crave an exhilarating ride on both the streets and the track. It’s a machine that embodies both sport and comfort, making it a prime choice for riders looking to dominate both urban landscapes and twisty backroads. At the heart of the Tuono V4 R lies a powerful 999.60 cc V4 engine that churns out an impressive 164.95 horsepower at 11,500 RPM and 110 Nm of torque at 9,500 RPM. This four-stroke powerhouse is engineered for exhilarating acceleration and precise throttle response, thanks in part to its advanced ride-by-wire system, which offers three selectable maps—Track, Sport, and Road—to suit various riding styles.

Its aluminum dual beam chassis, paired with a fully adjustable Sachs front suspension and a double-braced aluminum swingarm at the rear, ensures that this bike remains stable and responsive, even at high speeds. The braking system is equally impressive, featuring double disc brakes at the front with floating stainless-steel discs that provide exceptional stopping power. With a lightweight of just 183 kg (403.4 pounds), this bike's power-to-weight ratio of 0.9014 HP/kg translates into a thrilling ride, whether you're navigating city streets or hitting the racetrack. Further adding to its appeal, the Tuono V4 R comes in a variety of striking colors, including Black, White, and Yellow. **
