Tank Slap - Motorcycle Forum

You ain't kidding.

Is it me, but either the bike is tiny or the tank is huge

The shape is pretty common on sports bikes and it mirrors its bigger brother

I suspect it could be the bigger brothers tank fitted on the smaller sibling. Same shape but proportionally it looks big for the bike imo.

Another bin part special

Looking that way

Little love hearts for seats.

I like those lights

I like the "big tank" look on a sportbike.

Big tanks are awesome on a sportsbike because they're functional. It's very comfortable to rest my forearm against the shoulder of the tank for mid corner. The downside was I had to lift my elbow above the tank for elbow down

Assuming they prove reliable and Aprilia can build enough, i reckon these will be flying out the door in the brave new world we are about to enter.

That looks absolutely spot on

Looks good, but it'd be better if they could decide on a colour for the wheels.... I'm not sure the two-wheels/two-colours thing works too well.
But I'm splitting hairs.

Wow that looks tiny. Very nice though

Its the future for road going sports bikes.

Test rides this weekend for the journos.

Some more details. £10,149 on the road. 100bhp 50ft of torque. 320mm brembo stoppers. Quick shifter and blipper. TFT screen. Loads of electronics. 189kg wet weight

Sounds promising.

I like it, would like to give it a spin around the block.

It'll be interesting to see the power graphs for both the 660 models to see if they've gone for a bit more low down with the Tuono
