The Aprilia Tuono 660 is a middleweight sport-naked that takes the RS 660’s supersport heart and wraps it in a stripped, upright package. It delivers big-bike thrills with more comfortable ergonomics than a full sportbike. The aggressive naked styling and compact fairing give it a purposeful street presence. It is a premium naked for experienced riders who want performance they can use every day.
It uses the same 659cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin, tuned here to around 95PS and 67Nm, driving a six-speed gearbox with a quickshifter. The strong mid-range and light chassis make it fast yet flexible, with a claimed mileage near 20.4kmpl. Power builds cleanly thanks to ride-by-wire and rider modes, so it is easy to ride smoothly in town yet thrilling when opened up. The upright riding position makes the mid-range feel even more accessible on real roads. It balances excitement with usable, everyday performance better than a full sportbike does.
This bike suits experienced riders who want supersport performance without the wrist strain of clip-on bars. It fits those upgrading from 400 to 500cc nakeds and riders who mix commuting with fast weekend rides. Enthusiasts who value premium electronics and agile handling, but also want to ride comfortably every day, will enjoy it most. Riders who like the RS 660 but want more relaxed ergonomics should look here first. It is not a beginner machine, given its power and premium price, and rewards those with some big-bike experience.
Braking uses twin front discs with radial calipers and a rear disc, supported by dual-channel ABS. Advanced electronics including riding modes, traction control and wheelie control add safety and control. The upright stance also improves visibility and confidence in traffic. Together these make fast riding safer and more predictable.
The Tuono 660 comes with a full-colour TFT display, ride-by-wire throttle, quickshifter, cruise control and the APRC electronics suite. Multiple ride modes let riders tune power and aids to their liking. Its technology matches far pricier machines, which is central to its value, and the cruise control makes it a surprisingly capable long-distance companion. Bluetooth connectivity and a clear TFT keep the cockpit modern and easy to read. For a middleweight naked, the overall specification is genuinely excellent.
As a premium CBU naked, it needs specialist service and genuine parts, so dealer proximity is important. Service intervals follow the manual, typically every several thousand kilometres or annually. Ownership costs exceed mainstream middleweight nakeds. Confirming dealer support before purchase is wise.
A claimed figure near 20kmpl is decent for a 95PS twin, though premium tyres, chain care and specialist service raise costs. Insurance for a CBU naked is notable. Riders should budget for the premium of imported ownership. For enthusiasts, the all-round ability justifies the spend.
The Tuono 660 is a CBU import priced at about Rs. 17.44 lakh (ex-showroom), with on-road pricing higher after taxes and insurance. It is offered in select colours as a single well-equipped trim. It slightly undercuts the faired RS 660. Our EMI and city-wise price tools help plan the full cost.
Yes, for the right owner. The Tuono 660 is a well-built premium twin that rewards long-term ownership with proper care. Access to an Aprilia superbike service centre and genuine parts is essential.
It commutes more comfortably than a full sportbike thanks to its upright stance, and it is superb on fast weekend and highway rides. For pure city budget use it is more bike than needed, but as an all-rounder it is excellent.
Yes, relatively. As a CBU naked it has higher service, tyre, insurance and spare-part costs than mainstream middleweights. Budgeting generously keeps ownership smooth.
If you want a premium sport-naked, the Tuono 660 is outstanding. Compare it with the Kawasaki Z650, Yamaha MT-07-class rivals and Triumph Trident 660 for lower running costs. Choose the Tuono for its performance and electronics.
Service is typically due every several thousand kilometres or once a year per the owner's manual. Timely specialist servicing protects warranty and reliability.
With expert maintenance and genuine parts, the Tuono 660 can last well over a decade of enthusiast use. Longevity depends chiefly on specialist care and parts availability.
