The Aprilia Tuareg 660 may very well be revealed later this 12 months and launched globally in early 2021
It was at EICMA 2019 that Aprilia teased the Tuareg 660, a brand new journey bike primarily based on the identical 660 platform because the Aprilia RS 660 and the Tuono 660. We are saying teased as a result of, the bike was stored in a Perspex field with leaves and shrubs. One might simply barely make out few elements of the motorbike such because the knobby tyres, metallic bashplate, handguards, ADV-inspired entrance finish and different such particulars. And now, over a 12 months later, spyshots of the brand new 660 cc motorbike have surfaced, confirming the truth that the Tuareg 660 just isn’t a fable however an precise motorbike which is now being examined.

The fuzzy spyshots present the profile of the motorbike and the silhouette immediately reminds you on the Yamaha Tenere 700 and the Honda Africa Twin, with a flat entrance and no beak. The handlebar sits very tall and in another way sized entrance and rear wheels, that are wire-spoked after all. The pics hardly present every other element save for normal telescopic forks up entrance and disc brakes at each ends.
(The Aprilia Tuareg 660 is more likely to get the identical engine because the RS 660 and the Tuono 660)
We suspect that the Tuareg is more likely to get the identical 660 cc parallel-twin Euro 5 compliant engine which places out 100 bhp. The engine has been derived from the entrance cylinders of the 1100 cc Aprilia RSV4 powerplant and makes use of a 270-degree crankshaft design. On the teaser motorbike showcased at EICMA 2019, the identify ‘Tuareg’ was written on the tail part of the bike and harks again to the corporate’s previous African rally bikes. Tuareg can be the identify of a Bedouin tribe from North Africa and sits properly with the theme of the motorbike.
We count on the motorbike to be launched alongside the Tuono 660 someday subsequent 12 months, most likely in early 2021. Will it come to India? We’ve our doubts.
