Morning Gents
I've been patiently reading all the old threads in the forum and found all the shared wisdom both insightful and decisive in making my purchase decision.
My 2011 Tuono is a second hand aprc model and was picked up a week ago and, well, FARK! What have I bought?!?!?! I've been smiling for a week now and my grin has lit up all of Hong Kong, where I've been living for the past 8 years.
First riding impressions: absolutely every thing described by the experienced users in this forum is true and can be experienced with a couple of km's under the belt. The T is by far the best bike I've ever had, features insane power delivery (and I confess to be in S mode with traction control at 4 to avoid spoling the fun with an untimely come-off), insane sound (akra's with db killer removed helps :yes) and grip to defy the laws of gravity even on ol' Kong's lousy streets!
I'm not much of a techie/mechanic so expect to receive the odd daft questions from me. But my bike came with a couple of goodies readily installed, which saves me time and hassle. Am contemplating bar end mirrors and a 15/44 sprocket conversion as I don't need all that top speed.
Looking forward to reading and contributing to the forum!
