TopSpeed's review of the Aprilia Tuareg 660 praises how well it balances on-road manners with off-road capability. The 659cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin makes 80 horsepower, the bike weighs about 449 pounds wet, and suspension travel measures 9.4 inches front and rear. Pricing starts at $12,499 for the standard model, with a Rally version at $13,999.

Even from someone who lives for mud and dirt, the Tuareg 660 is genuinely well done. 80 horsepower from a 659cc parallel-twin sounds modest on paper, but 449 pounds wet with 9.4 inches of travel front and rear is the right balance. I usually say pavement is boring, but this makes me want to take the detour.

The Rally version's looks are genuinely great.

That 21-inch front should feel reassuring on rougher trails.

At this price, wouldn't the Ténéré 700 just be the better call?

Horsepower and suspension travel both favor the Tuareg though.

$12,499 stings a bit depending on the exchange rate.

At 204kg with this range, this is genuinely a bike I'd tour on.

For touring you'd really need to see running costs too, not just weight.
