Tuono 457 2025 vs Z500 2025

In terms of raw performance, these two are evenly matched. The Tuono 457 and Z500 produce nearly identical power figures, meaning the real-world difference will come down to gearing and torque delivery rather than peak horsepower. When it comes to agility, the Z500 has a clear advantage. Weighing in 8kg less than the Tuono 457, 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 Z500. Its seat height is 15mm lower than the Tuono 457, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the tuono457 if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the z500 if you want the alternative brand character.
