APRILIA Tuareg 600 Wind (1990-1991) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 1990, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Aprilia Tuareg 600 Wind, an all-road motorcycle suitable for various riding scenarios. It was the largest displacement motorcycle in the family and was ideal for young and seasoned riders.

The 1990 motorcycle came with the same package as the previous model, delivering the same visual, performance, and technical specifications without any significant changes.

The bike's appearance was characterized by standard fittings, like a half fairing with a dual round headlight system, a small windscreen for better wind protection, a low-mounted front fender, a one-piece double seat with pillion grab handles, a high-mounted exhaust system, an engine cover, and wire-spoke wheels.

The bike's skeleton was made of steel. It housed the suspension system, comprised of a 40 mm telescopic fork on the front that provided 210 mm of travel and a preload-adjustable shock on the rear with 220 mm wheel travel, offering the optimum suspension capabilities.

The braking power was handled by a 300 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the front wheel and a single 220 mm brake disc on the rear wheel, offering optimum braking performance.

As for the power figures, the 1990 Aprilia Tuareg 600 Wind had its heartbeat set by a 562cc four-stroke air-cooled single-cylinder engine that delivered an output power of 46 hp with maximum strength at 7,100 rpm and 58 Nm (43 lb-ft) torque at 5,800 rpm.
