Hyderabad:

Aprilia has launched the new Tuono 457 Streetfighter motorcycle in India. This naked sports bike is priced at Rs 3.95 lakh (ex-showroom, Maharashtra). The new Tuono 457 Streetfighter shares its underpinnings with the existing RS 457 which has been made in India at Aprilia's Baramati plant in Maharashtra.

The new motorcycle comes in a completely new design as it has been optimised for street-friendly performance as opposed to the RS 457, which is made for track performance. Notably, the pre-bookings of the two-wheeler start with immediate effect and the test ride for the new Tuono starts next week. The deliveries of this motorcycle will commence from the first week of the next month.

The Aprilia Tuono 457 Streetfighter is bigger compared to other Tuono models present in the lineup. The traditional semi-fairing of the motorcycle has been replaced with the new bug-like face mounted with triple LED headlights and boomerang-designed LED DRLs. A single-piece raised handlebar replaces the clip-on handlebars and provides a more upright riding position. Moreover, the motorcycle has a sharp look with split seats, split grab rails, and a short tail tidy affixed at the rear. The Tuono 457 features 17-inch Protorq Extreme alloy wheels.
