2019 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory Unveiled

For 2019, the Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory gets new semi-active suspension, and subtle changes in the colour schemes. The talking point on the new updates is the new Ohlins Smart EC 2.0 electronic semi-active suspension system, which offers two modes - semi-active and manual. On the semi-active mode, the bike's electronics will aid the rider in everything, while the manual setting allows the rider to pick their own settings and disable the electronics. The semi-active mode constantly evaluates the feedback from the front and rear suspension, and the rider's inputs to the throttle and brakes, and adjusts responses accordingly.
