Aprilia Tuono 457 Arrives: A 457cc, 47.6hp Naked Built on the RS 457

Getting the RS457's sportiness in a naked package — honestly, a bike worth paying attention to.

Piranha Red and Puma Gray — a simple two-color lineup, but both are cool names.

Looks set to go head-to-head at this price point with rivals like the KTM 390 Duke and the YZF-R3.

So North America launches with the standard version rather than India's Special Edition — the difference in market strategy is interesting.

A lightweight naked for entry-to-mid riders — at $6,599 it's an accessible way to get your first Aprilia.

47.6hp for an MSRP of $6,599 — sharing the platform with the RS457, that price makes total sense.
