The Ktm felt like it had a bit more personality, it was more agricultural in comparison had a supermoto vibe to it, the Tuono is more refined and serious and sounds better


Ktm has a lot of dirt bike pedigree and you can feel it on their bikes (even the superduke)

Aprilia has a lot of road racing pedigree and you can feel that on their street bikes as well

Getting more seat time on the Aprilia and getting familiar with it, it’s a serious and focused bike… in contrast to some bikes that you ride that are all about fun, and when you ride them they FEEL fast(even if you are not going very fast) this one is not like that.

It is so competent at going fast, that even if you are, it doesn’t feel it.

The Tuono feels very planted and serious and always feels likes it’s on a mission.

This is a bike that needs the open road, it needs space to roam, twisty roads and tracks etc. the urban environment is definitely not its friend.

It handles very well and sounds really good, gonna put on more miles, get the break in service done, and see what more this bike has to offer.

Also finally got some pics

Curious, what's your height and weight? Sat on one of these at the dealer and it felt like a grom. Otherwise, it looks like a lot of fun. Congrats.

Looks good. The Healey in the background leaves my focus split.
