Stumbled on this article, never heard of it, looks sharp! May be competition with the 700 Tenere

I've been watching that one for a while.  What it brings to the table is tubeless wheels, electronic cruise control, decent suspension components.

What the Tenere brings is reliability.  Valve Check at 26,000 miles. 

Can barely find a Tenere 700, and Aprilia Dealers are about as scarce as Moto Guzzi Dealers. 

I've ridden a Tenere 700 and would love a test ride on the Tuareg.

I'd love to have one to park in my garage next to my VW Touareg, just to have someone point out that one of them is misspelled!   :evil:

Nice to see Aprilia resurrecting the Tuareg model that they initially sold in the 80’s as the Tuareg Wind 600. I think the original shared the basic platform of the BMW 650 that was built by Aprilia for BMW.

This new version has a great specification, more power and a serious off road capability. My local Aprilia / Guzzi / Yamaha dealer is really excited to get them on the floor for spring 2022.
