If straight-line speed is your priority, the Tuono V4 1100 takes the lead. With 10 HP more than the S1000R, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the S1000R has a clear advantage. Weighing in 10kg less than the Tuono V4 1100, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the S1000R. Its seat height is 24mm lower than the Tuono V4 1100, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the tuono-v4 if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the s1000r if you want the alternative brand character.
