Just got on an '07 Tuono with only 2800 miles on the clock for $6K. Only upgrades are Ermax screen and Leo Vince titanium slip ons. It's a lot of bike. When riding with my buddy yesterday with his Duc S2R 1000, he asked me to rev it up (it is loud at idle, wanted to hear what 11K sounded like). When we were at rolling speed through town, I clutched it, revved it, and I heard him yell something...? We came to a stop sign and he pulled up next to me and said flames came out of the exhaust. Badass. But makes me wonder if I should take it to a shop with AXONE to see if Map2 is installed.

Sidenote, andyone in the Portland area, or even southern Washington know of a shop with AXONE? Motocorsa dropped Aprilia I believe. I think the closest dealer is now in Eugene...?

11k rpm would probably be the rev limiter kicking in.Usually the bike will run rough at lower revs if it was still on map1.

btw,Welcome to the site.I'm in the UK,so dont know any US dealers,...sorry.
 
Welcome to the forum
As Keith said, the flames will be due to hitting the rev limiter and the unburned fuel catching fire.
Enjoy, sounds like you've got a bargain.
 
What would you consider "low revs"?

As of now I wouldn't say that it runs "rough", it's more like a surge. Under 4K it'll be less consistent power, and more on off on off on off on off power, if that makes sense. No bogging down at all. Does this sound like the symptoms of Map 1?
