Hi guys, had my Tuono R a week and have to say I love everything about it, She's a 2007 in the black and grey with a colour matched factory belly pan, has Wolf cans running on map2, recently tweaked and serviced by Griff. Thought saying good bye to my Ducati 900SS ie would be painful however not having achy wrists and neck ache is fab, never mind the extra 50+ horse power !!!!
I've attached a few pictures (hopefully) to show her off.

Hello and Welcome, that's a good looking bike.

lovely..stupidly clean for its age....HTR....as long as you keep an eye on the stator/rectifier, shock linkage and speedo (climbs madly without you noticing) it should last for years.
theres just something about Tuono's...people either love or hate them....having owned/own all 3 models i have to say they are the best Jekyll and Hyde bikes about....1 minute calm and sedate...next your doing everything to hold on whilst it aims for the sky.
Some find that intimidating....their lose......
.if you can , let Griff keep it in shape....not much he doesn't know about Ape's

Welcome!

Welcome and enjoy it, a really nice example of a great bike.
I am also liking the look of that belly pan, anyone know who makes it?

Daz1966 · Jul 17, 2015

Hi Fugly thanks for your great comments, the belly pan is a genuine carbon factory one, the previous owner picked it up, apparently it had some minor damage that he had repaired and then had it painted to blend in with the bikes colour scheme.
