                Pros & Cons

                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Yamaha R3

                  • Design - looks like a proper Japanese sportsbike and will grab a lot of attention
                  • Versatile engine - tractable enough for city rides and rev-happy enough to enjoy being ridden hard
                  • Handling - changes direction with minimal efforts and inspires a lot of confidence when tipped into corners
                  • Comfort - tall clip-ons and a relatively upright riding posture means it’s quite comfortable for a sportsbike

                  Aprilia Tuono 457

                  • Looks muscular with a good road presence
                  • Refined parallel-twin engine with exciting performance and excellent low speed usability
                  • Lots of features like a 5-inch colour display, Bluetooth connectivity, 3 riding modes, 3 traction modes and preload adjustable suspension at both ends
                  • Handling is sweet and the bike inspires confidence in the rider to go fast around corners
                • Yamaha R3

                  • Cramped lower body ergonomics - riders above 5’10 will find the lower body ergonomics quite tight
                  • No features - quickshifter, traction control and every Bluetooth connectivity, the R3’s console misses out on a lot of things that other bikes in the segment offer as standard. All it gets is a digital console and ABS
                  • A price tag of Rs 4,64,900 (ex-showroom Delhi) makes the R3 a very expensive bike
                  • The R3 is expensive and not the best value for your money. That said, it’s still a very reliable, fri

                  Aprilia Tuono 457

                  • Brakes fade quite easily under sporty riding
                  • Ride comfort on bad roads is a bit harsh and will force you to slow down.

                  Bike is good in handling and performance. Power to weight ratio is good Mileage is average. Speed is great. The panels make aerodynamics very much appealing due to which air drag is a lot more decreased by. Engine is also reliable and power output feels great . Vehicle torque is great but also easy to handle. Throttle response is very much appealing.

                  It was an memorable thing
                  It was an memorable thing that happened in my life were my Dad presented me a bike on my birthday. And the bike was my one of the dream bike to buy in my life. The dual led headlights and sculpted fuel tank give it a premium, aggressive look. Fuel efficiency is around 40-45 kmpl, depending on riding conditions.

                  The mileage should be increase
                  The mileage is not bad but still bike performance is good and good looking bike mileage should be increase to 30-40 like they given to r15 v3 and v4

                  Aprilia bike rewiew
                  one of the best bikes i use for speeding,best comfort gets to 100 kms in just 5 seconds,i cant believe a bike with such a fast throttle and pickup giving mileage of 30 kms its out of my mind,maintenance cost is appreciable service and parts available all over India no need for waiting parts just go to aprilla showroom

                  Unique bike but absolute comfort machine
                  My brother bought this bike a few months ago and it is excellent, in simple this bike is so comfortable to compare to Apache and BMW 310 r, its ride quality and speed, torque are great and the handling when you are at high speed is very smooth which is why i definitely recommend you to buy this bike. Also, I live in a tier 1 city but I only see some of these bikes in rare locations so you have something great and unique

                  Took a Test Drive and
                  Took a Test Drive and power to Weight ratio is awesome could have been little softer suspension for good comfort but overall a beast to be on road in my opinion aprilia is going great places after this, previously had a gt 650 and my mind had different view on this but as soon a took a ride wow man its changed

                  This is the most expected
                  This is the most expected bike made and luched in india but according to me the price is little high .it can be expected around 3 lacks in the road price but the price is high.but also the design and performance is top of the most killer among the sports naked bikes in india. I am very happy to purchase this bike
