Our take on this /// Verdict
The Aprilia Caponord 1200 STD is a formidable adventure tourer that left a lasting impression, despite being discontinued in India. Its 1197cc V-twin engine delivers a robust 125 bhp and 115 Nm of torque, making it a joy to ride on both highways and twisty roads. The bikes ADD (Aprilia Dynamic Damping) suspension is a standout feature, providing exceptional comfort and handling, even over rough terrain. The inclusion of advanced technologies like ride-by-wire, three ride modes (Sport, Touring, Rain), and Aprilia Traction Control enhances its versatility and safety. However, the limited service network and relatively poor fuel economy are notable drawbacks. Overall, its a great choice for those seeking a powerful and comfortable adventure bike, but potential buyers need to weigh these factors carefully.
Price
The Aprilia Caponord 1200 STD was priced at around 16.71 lakh ex-showroom in Delhi before it was discontinued. On-road prices would have varied depending on the state and local taxes, but you could expect an additional 1-2 lakh to cover these costs, bringing the total to approximately 17.71-18.71 lakh. While this pricing was competitive with other high-end adventure tourers in the market, the bikes value proposition was somewhat diminished by its limited after-sales service support in India.
