Hello it surprises me the amount of Fireblade riders that have moved over to the Tuono! I too changed from an 2005 blade to the Tuono at the start of June this year and have already done over 4000miles. Great bike you wont look back!!! Reminds me so much of my early days on my RD350 YPVS!!!

Jap bikes, especially faired ones all look the same to me. Same shape just different colours.
The Tuono has been giving you subliminal messages every time you have seen one.
Undeniably the most attractive naked bike out there, you've noticed a seductive bit of styling from every angle.
Eventually you can't resist and take the plunge.
Its a form of bike coming out.
You will probably never notice another Jap again and find all you ever see on the road are T's.
Then when your not spending all your time riding your new T you'll spend all your time boring the arse of every one telling them how good they are just like I'm doing now.:thumbup

Rider929 - This is sage advice indeed.:thumbup ....and NO, you won't look back.

The Frozen ******* Wasteland!
Ratfuck... sorry to hear that you have a glitch already. My 07 matte black has had a L signal glitch warranteed (the L signal light would vibrate on under hard acceleration, some kind of grounding issue) and the stator went. Never left me on the side of the road though. I have had some IL4s but my favourites have always been twins, hence the TL, the shovel and the Sporty in the current collection.
Welcome to the lunacy, mate. It may be a pisser now, and I don't blame you at all for being disappointed but PLEASE, take the time to get her fixed and get in a couple of rides before you make a final decision. Do NOT however, take her to the track. I have unfortunately succumbed to this addiction and am off to get my fix again this Saturday... even after gravel surfing last Sunday... *sigh* If you end up going to the track, then all else starts to pale. Fun as **** though, schooling those little rat *******s on their IL4s.

Welcome 929, did you get the bike sorted?
I had a 954 and compared to the T, is second rate. I love the T, and I'm sure you will too.
