In 1989, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer released the Aprilia Tuareg 600 Wind, a gritty all-road motorcycle suitable for various riders and riding scenarios. It was the largest displacement model of the family.
The 1989 model came in the same shape and form as the previous one, delivering the exact technical, visual, and performance specifications without any significant modifications.
In the aesthetic department, the bike had 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.
As for performance, the 1989 Aprilia Tuareg 600 Wind had installed 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.
The motorcycle was manufactured around a steel frame that housed 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.
In the braking department, the bike's wheels were fitted with a 300 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the front and a single 220 mm brake disc on the rear, offering optimum braking performance.
