CORRECTION: Because I'm a .. moron.. I have converted height to my video directly to FT!!.. I'm actually 5 ft 8.5" (174cm). So all the heights mentioned in the video are only correct in the metric system (cm).

This is NOT a sponsored video. I freely speak my mind about the bike and there was no requirement to mention the company.

A few thoughts before you bash me in the comments. This was just a quick ride and my first impressions on the Aprilia Tuareg 660 so anything I talk on the video is just me trying to feel the bike out on this short ride so very unscientific.
I did the same test ride TWICE so that I could try and feel if I found the same things to be true on both runs and here are my thoughts:

The bike feels extremely light coming from a Tenere 700 owner. It feels very nimble and easy to handle. It clearly wears it's weight lower than the Tenere 700 does and it is a huge benefit especially off the pavement. The Tuareg also is much narrower between the riders legs so it is way easier to reach the ground on the stock bike compared to the Tenere. This is also assisted by the slightly lower seat height of the stock Tuareg compared to the stock Tenere. With all this Aprilia still managed to keep the same excellent ground clearance as the Yamaha. All this could potentially offer me a better experience doing harder offroad sections as I could manage the bike better stopping on ruts and tough spots. Tenere tends to go down very easily as there is no stopping the bike after it starts going down on a tough spot. I assume the Aprilia is easier to lift after it's been downed which has been a problem of mine with the Tenere.

Both bikes are such a joy to ride and anyone who owns either one is lucky to do so.

🏍️ What is the Quick Ride series meant to be?

Quick Ride collection is not meant to be this rigid "review" style video that most youtubers are making. There is definitely a place for actual reviews but as I don't have access like that to these bikes I thought I would do things a bit differently than just list you a bunch of specs and hilights of these machines.

I make these videos just to bring you along on a test ride of these bikes. Some episodes might be longer if I get access to a bike for more time but mostly these are short test ride style videos where I try to tell you the audience everything I'm feeling from the bike at that moment and maybe do a closing thought at the end if needed.

Welcome aboard!
