Pre-Orders Now Open for Aprilia Tuareg Rally, Moto Guzzi Stelvio Duecento Tributo
The chance to own Aprilia’s all-new Tuareg Rally edition motorcycles, for just over £12k, is now available through pre-orders
Based on the Taureg 660 adventure bike, Aprilia’s all-new Rally middleweight is the brand’s newest off-roader and ex-showroom bikes will cost £12,400 when accessing the pre-order page on the Aprilia website.
The bike takes after the two-time Africa Eco Race-winning Tuareg 660 which has become a very popular adventure bike since its inception in 2021. Bolstering the same twin-cylinder engine as the Tuareg 660 model, the new Rally edition also gets the same horizontal triple headlights in what is one of the many similarities.
The Aprilia Tuareg Rally features a dedicated SC Project exhaust system, and is finished with a fully titanium silencer that gives off an aggressive, racing-style end cap with a generous 60mm outlet. The Tuareg Rally’s overall weight has been shaved to 199kg.
The bike comes available in the ‘race replica’ Rally colour scheme that has taken victory in multiple Dakar rallies. The forks, wheel rims and handlebars comprise a sporty gold anodised finish.
The heavy-duty spoked wheels with Ergal rims are paired with knobbly tyres and inner tubes. The Kayaba suspension system offers 240mm of travel and it utilises linear K-rate springs instead of progressive ones, which allows for improved off-road handling and greater rider control on uneven terrain.
Then there is Moto Guzzi’s limited edition Stelvio Duecento Tributo, which is available in just 2,758 units. The bike, named appropriately based on the famous mountain pass in Italy, is a road adventure bike available for pre-ordering at £16,800.
The 2,758 units are to pay homage to the mountain’s 2,758-metre altitude which is the highest in Italy. Standard equipment sees the Stelvio PFF Rider Assistance Solution included on the bike, while this model features an innovative rider assistance platform based on 4D Imaging Radar technology developed by Piaggio Fast Forward.
This system plays a vital role in safety, offering features such as Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) and Lane Change Assist (LCA). It also includes heated grips, heated comfort seats for both rider and passenger, a central stand, a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), a bi-directional quick-shift transmission and the Moto Guzzi MIA multimedia platform.
