NEW DELHI: Aprilia lists the Tuono 660 at Rs 17,74,000 ex-showroom on its India superbike range page. Buyers should match that listing to the standard Tuono 660 specification before requesting a quotation: another India page now promotes the more powerful Tuono 660 Factory, without giving it a separate readable vehicle price.

Price as of 15 November 2026, 23:19 IST. This is Aprilia's displayed India listing, with its website asterisk, rather than a newly announced price or an on-road quotation. Registration, insurance and any selected accessories need to be identified separately in the written purchase estimate.
Start by identifying the version
The standard-model page describes Torque Red and Rush Grey finishes, a 95 HP engine and Kayaba adjustable suspension. Aprilia's technical sheet specifies output as 95 CV or 70 kW. These are the figures used here. Neither the India range page nor the standard-model description provides individual colour prices, so there is no verified colour-by-colour price ladder to reproduce.
The Factory overview describes a different package: 105 hp, 181 kg, fully adjustable Öhlins suspension and a 5-inch TFT display. Those details must not be attached automatically to the Rs 17,74,000 standard Tuono listing. Ask for the exact version, model year, colour and equipment on the quotation. A brochure headed simply Tuono 660 is insufficient if the machine being offered carries a Factory badge.
What the standard motorcycle offers
The liquid-cooled twin uses a six-speed gearbox and a wet multiplate slipper clutch. Its displacement matters less to a prospective owner than how comfortably the controls can be used repeatedly. During a demonstration, check clutch reach, throttle response and the ease of changing gear while wearing your usual riding boots.
Aprilia gives the Tuono a 270-degree crankshaft and shorter final gearing than the RS 660. Its aluminium frame and swingarm, compact fairing and upright handlebar position explain its particular appeal: a sport motorcycle with road-oriented ergonomics. That combination deserves a different assessment from a fully faired machine bought primarily for circuit use.
For Indian use, start with the roads you actually ride. Consider whether the posture remains comfortable while moving slowly, how much room your knees have beside the tank, and whether the mirrors provide a useful view with your jacket on. These observations are more useful than treating the word naked as a guarantee of everyday comfort.
Check fit and chassis equipment together
The technical sheet lists a 41 mm Kayaba upside-down fork with rebound and preload adjustment. Front braking uses twin 320 mm discs and Brembo radial calipers, while the rear has a 220 mm disc. The combination gives buyers concrete hardware to inspect rather than an undefined promise of premium components.
At a standstill, assess the 820 mm seat with the motorcycle held upright and supported appropriately. Foot reach also depends on your build and the seat's shape. Practise the movements needed to leave your parking space, and check whether the riding position still works when reaching the brake and clutch. Avoid deciding from seat height alone.
Understand what the electronics include
The standard India description lists five riding modes, divided between road and track use, alongside traction control, wheelie control, cruise control, engine-braking adjustment and engine maps. Have the menus demonstrated before delivery. Save the settings you understand and confirm how the motorcycle indicates the active mode.
Piaggio's original technical explanation identifies the inertial platform and quickshifter as accessories for the standard machine. Do not infer cornering ABS or an installed quickshifter merely from a general reference to APRC electronics. Ask for the actual installed equipment list and an explanation of any separately charged hardware or activation.
Compare the alternatives on your shortlist
The RS 660 is the closest in-house alternative, and Aprilia's India range page displays the same Rs 17,74,000 figure for it. That makes riding position and bodywork especially relevant comparison points. The Tuono's smaller fairing and handlebar arrangement should be assessed against the RS rather than assuming equal prices mean interchangeable motorcycles.
For wider context, read our Ducati Monster guide and Streetfighter V2 price guide. Riders comparing Aprilia's smaller roadster can also consult the Tuono 457 riding-mode explainer. These provide separate reference points, not evidence that their equipment matches this Tuono.
Before committing, obtain a quotation that names the standard or Factory version explicitly, identifies the supplied accessories and states the delivery terms. The Tuono 660's appeal rests on its compact sporting layout, but a clear version description is what makes the advertised price meaningful.
