Aprilia has released their first adventure motorcycle in a veeeeery long time, the Tuareg 660. We've been riding it up and down for about a week and this is what we think of it.

What were your expectations from the Aprilia Tuareg 660?

@plt4415 Год назад

Well my expectations were not this high not from Tuareg but you(as a strong follower of your channel even). Very very well review, I enjoyed every seconds, technically, of it. Also please feel free to make more jokes on Americans, I like it D)))

@VARider1 Год назад

To perform as well as the T700. And after 6 days on the WYBDR it better it!

@KMeyn Год назад

Pretty much on par with your conclusion. Which actually also was my conclusion, after having tested it, though much less comprehensive than you have. Time being the reason. But I had the same good feeling!

@speedfinder1 Год назад

I've ordered one after riding it against the Tenere 700 World raid as a comparison. The wait is long but I'm hoping it will arrive in the next 3 weeks.

@ridentandemprojectrideandd2078 Год назад

probably the lightest and the most rider friendly ADV bike i have tried, the RS 660 torque is present, this bike makes displacement a secondary factor in choosing a bike

@speedfinder1 Год назад

Tried one, loved it, ordered it. It arrived two days ago and it is EVERYTHING I could have asked for in a mid weight adv bike. Simply Awesome.

@willyd-adv Год назад

I went from a T7 to the Toureg. I don't like rider aided bikes but the Toureg has absolutely blown me away for just $1500 nzd more than the T7. Especially after the power delivery update and factory quick shifter was fitted. Only thing I added was a bash plate, Barkbusters, screen extension and lower pegs as I'm a 6"2 ex hard endro racer

@nicolanaj 4 месяца назад

Hi Willyd,i was wondering since i'm the same hight as you (and also ex hard enduro racer although only 35years ago.. :-)) I was wondering about the lower pegs. How do they work ? Where can i find them and how to choose them. Is the knee at a better angle that way ? Do they combine well with the gear lever ? Thank's

@emfl4437 Год назад

The more I learn about the Tuareg the more I am impressed. Thanks for the video

@Kimsand520 Год назад

I test rode one this summer and absolutely loved it! The intake sound when you give it some is really addicting! It also looks really good. Coming from a Ktm 1190 adv r and 790 adv r i found it to have just enough power, of course i wish it had 20 more hp, but in return it was so flickable and light feeling. The suspension was plush and really nice compared to the Ktm counterpart which are really stiff. Im used to heat so i did not notice it that well. The riding position for me at 178cm was great, not too much bend in the knees. Traction control and cruise control is a big win for me. For me, im going with the Aprilia or a Bmw R1200GS, time will tell. I also test rode the T7 and the Tuareg feels way peppier and quicker for me. Fit and finish was also in another leage on the Tuareg.

@robertrscott Год назад

So true! I test rode many of the same bikes you mentioned and decided on the Tuareg with no regrets. Your assessment of those bikes is dead on. Also I own an 18 beta 500rr-s and want to complete the stable with either an R1250GS or KTM 1290SAS, as you said time will tell.

@BillReitz Год назад

This was a very thorough, well put together review. It must be one of the longest I have seen from you. Dave did a great job of filming you on road & off, unless you use a VERY long selfie stick.

@khakimzhanmiras Год назад

The quality of this review is awesome!

@alphawolf2993 Год назад

I just want to say that I own a cb500x outfitted for long ADV rides. For something like 70% pavement 30% offroad it's fantastic. If youre on a budget you can get one for about $7,000 with very few miles on it, and realistically it will go 95% of the places the other bikes will, just a bit slower.

@MotoPassport Год назад

Well done Aprilia! It’s a great time to be a motorcyclist so many great bikes for all your adventure needs.

@snupermoto723 Год назад

The rubber foot peg inserts are to reduce vibration while sitting (light pressure on pegs), then to compress when you stand so your boot rides on the teeth of the peg for grip when riding aggressively.

@BigRockMoto Год назад

Great review. I love this bike. Hmmmm.... and they are in stock unlike the T7

@LongWayHome Год назад

@UnicornMoto Год назад

Nice work! One of the better to the point reviews I've watched. And as a new owner of a T660 - I agree. I only notice the heat down near my right foot though. I also find the tank to provide better wind protection than my Tiger 850 Sport did. Also really enjoy your sense of humor, made the video entertaining. Keep up the good work!.

@gillesgenete9598 Год назад

Thank you for comprehensive review. I tested the Tuareg and agree with all your comments. Just surprised you didn't notice how hard was the gear pedal to change gears. I tested the T7 as well,and found the Tuareg to be a better bike, worth its price, which is 2000lower than 890/901for similar performance.

@Davfon23 Год назад

@RiseRyder Год назад

one of the best reviews i've seen.

@MichaelShaw206 Год назад

Great review. I've had mine for a few months and will take it off-road after I put on the crash bars. For me, the real test will be whether I can lift it when I crash on a hill (repeatedly - it's what I do). Having just sold my WR250R, I will need a trail bike to complement the Tuareg, but for roads and gravel, it's a comfortable ride. I was tempted by the Yamaha T7 but they are too hard to find, and tubeless tires are a necessity. Also, they carry their weight a bit high. Perhaps the newest version with larger fuel tanks will remedy that, but the lack of cruise control is a deal breaker - something I didn't know I loved until I bought the Tuareg. As an old man, it really helps.

@cathgran3937 Год назад

Enjoyed this video and thanks for sharing! It seems the Tuareg hits all the high notes and none of the low ones. I am seriously considering buying one of these after being very underwhelmed by the new Transalp! I think Aprilia looked long and hard at the middleweight adventure market and designed accordingly - a lot of thought has gone into the new Tuareg. I have yet to watch a bad review so well done Aprilia!

@andreibotezan3185 Год назад

@kellyheath6293 Год назад

Great review… even with the rain and Linda Blair spinning around in the woods behind you.

@mart7404 Год назад

Great review and I agree with all of your likes and dislikes. I have one and totally love it. I originally was trying to get a T7 but in the US they are almost impossible to find these days. So when Aprilia came out with the Tuareg I jumped on it and am now super happy. Yes, it runs hot. Yes that mode button is so easy to accidentally switch to a mode you don't want. However, it is such a fun bike to ride on and off road. I hope that more aftermarket parts will start to appear. Aprilia really charges a lot for their accessories. The skid plate is the thickness of a Coke can. Why do manufacturers even put them on when they are worthless. The hand guards are also super flimsy and do little than stop a bit of air. But yes. Thank you Aprilia. I am in love. cheers Mate

@scratastic1 Месяц назад

It kinda makes sense because these days ADV bikes are popular but many people only ride light off road (similar to the SUV cars) so why put on more expensive hand guards and a bash plate if most riders won't need those and get the starting price higher. This way the entrance point for beginners is great and everyone who goes more hardcore off road just gets the after market parts instead.

Very nice review imho. Obviously the Italians are fantastic designers. I hope they resolve the reliability issues that have plagued several different brands. I've ridden the T7 on the road only. It was a nimble responsive machine, but it was also a group demo event. A very controlled ride 🤷‍♂️. I would love to test the Aprilia. Someday hopefully 🙏 .

@1couple4bikes Год назад

Tried the T7 it felt far too top heavy and tall. Tried the Tuareg and even thought at 204Kg it's exactly the same weight as the T7 it was so much more accessible and easy not just to ride but get off the side stand or push around. We were both so impressed we ordered two and they are coming next week. Great review as always.

@shassabo Год назад

Completely agree! This is a much better bike for just a tiny bit more cash.

@speedfinder1 Год назад

Absolutely agree with you on every point. I have found that fitting a tail rack has made mine 100% easier to push about in the garage or when parking as it give an excellent hand hold at the rear. Ride safe.

@pepsipeanuts521 Год назад

With the catalytic converter the engine runs hot off of recycling exhaust gasses it leaves you with a roasting right foot which might be appreciated in extreme sub arctic & full on arctic environments like Canada and Russia and Alaska & Maine & Minnesota & North & South Dakota & the upper peninsula of Michigan i think the bike needs that racing engine coolant called wetter than water it's similar to Machine Shop Coolant for For CNC & Lathe Coolant fluid and a doubled in Capacity Radiator would serve the Aprilia Tuareg 660 very well

@DadHominem Год назад

Great review. They are wonderful bikes for their intended purpose. I own two of them; one for me and one for my wife. She has about 2,200 miles on hers and I have about 1,800 miles (both USA) on mine. About 1/3 the miles are on unpaved roads, including 2 sections of the Idaho BDR. I chose the Tuareg over the T7 (also a great bike) for precisely the features you outlined in the video. For long distance travel (a week +) on mostly paved roads, I'll still take my GSA (wife has a GS), but for the 3-5 day camping trips riding unpaved forest/logging roads, in the Western US States (where we live), the Tuareg is an excellent choice.

@KiwiMoto72 Год назад

Great bike, but a piss poor dealer network, which for those of us in the US is a deal breaker. I have a track modified RS660 which I love, but it’s a track bike. If I break down at the track, I just put it in my van and drive it home to the one dealer we have in Seattle. But if I break down with this, in the middle of nowhere I think I’ll be screwed. So I opted for a Africa Twin

@AlexEllwein Год назад

Still better to ride than Teneré because of the cruise control and electronics. Tuareg for the win!

@precise1329 3 месяца назад

Hey brother. Fantastic analysis. I have a Tuareg. And I can't argue with your assessments. The heat you are feeling on your legs is due to the Catalytic converter. There are options out there to put on a different exhaust and that completely eliminates that heat. (Not legal in all regions.) THAT SAID, I'm visiting Romania in a couple weeks. Are motorcycle rentals/tours available in Romania? I plan on being in Bucharest for a few days, then Brasov. But I have a couple days left. I'd like to see your country on two wheels if possible. Thx.

@ciocanelwar Год назад

I thought this was the perfect bike and wanted to order it, sadly the fake air vents and the single frame body made me change my mind, the heat issue is understandable with euro 5. I found out that they also had some issues with the engine (believe it's fixed with a new map), a leaking gasket and now one of the Tuareg riders I follow had a ballbearing failure on the rear wheel. Waiting to see what the issue was. I bet the next version of this bike is going to be amazing.

I keep hearing people compare this bike to the T7 in regard to reliability and service etc. 1. Are you riding or own both the T7 and this one at the same time to make this comparison? 2. Can the common people even able to get their hands on a Yamaha T7 these days? With Yamaha delivering sub-par numbers of bike to us? 3. If yamaha is such a reliable beast, why do you care about dealership network and parts availability?

I have a Tuareg 660 and love it for normal off-road riding (not single track nasty stuff). Just finished a 6 day ride of the WYBDR and it performed well. During the ride I broke the front tire bead from the wheel (running too low pressure) and cracked the front mud guard when I bottomed out on a large rut at 30 mph. All in all, it ran great for the ride and even performed better than the an expert rider in our group on a new Tenere 700 who had to skip Section 4 given how hard the was.

@stevenarrivo4595 Год назад

What? There is no section of the WYBDR that is true expert level riding. I'm an intermediate, on a 790. Section 4 was a blast. Love the "the expert couldn't do the hard section but I did!" careful not to hurt your arm patting yourself on the back!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA

@zyonsdream Год назад

I find it funny you said it has no fueling issues. This bike has a serious stutter at around 3500rpm when you’re just cruising. Aprilia has acknowledged they are working on a fix. I’ve got 6,000 miles on mine and I don’t know anyone else who has one that doesn’t have this issue somewhere between 3000 and 4000 rpm. As for the heat, I’m pretty sure it’s the cat and not the radiator. My bike pretty much stays at two bars on the temp gauge unless I’m in heavy traffic. I rarely even hear the fan come on. I also think the engine runs hotter because it has less than 3 quarts of oil in it. That’s not a lot to keep things cool inside the mill. I barely notice the heat but I’ve ridden a lot of Harleys so heat is relative. I changed my windscreen to a Puig screen but I’ve done multiple 10 hour days on the highway with this bike cruising at 80 to 85mph. I’m 240lbs and have hard panniers. This bike is exceptional on the highway. Zero issues with anything

I'm having to stuff tubes back in my own 1290 Super Adventure R just to get the right rubber.
