Have to say, looks a lot better in the flesh.

Had a good look at the NEC today..... and tiz growing on me. Bod on the stand reckons we will get both versions in the UK (unlike MCN claims), reckons base will be around 10.5k, with another 2k or so on top for the higher spec model...... time will tell.... def worth blagiin a test ride when it gets here.
 
I saw it yesterday too.....hmmmm liked the look of it, not sure about that matt looking paint, maybe needed more stickers

really does look like the farings have just been removed and thats it thing is with these things you just gotta ride the bloody thing, then see
 
Partially faired? When does it actually become a naked bike then? Please elucidate and share that worldly wisdom...
 
See the T we ride, thats a naked with a diddy screen not a fairing. A true naked would be diddyless just like Ken when he's on his jack :)
I'm gonna go and kick it over on Thursday.
 
You blagged a courtesy ride already ye feckin git? You better have video and commentary or I'll be coming over to ***** slap you into next week.
 
when i went on sunday i had a look, i no likey, i chatted to the stand bloke about the dorsoduro 12 ,he was saying that the new engine will be used in future models....hmmm sounds promising. that new v4 jobbie is way too small, i know it was on a podium so you couldnt sit on it, but its the same as the rsv4 ,i sat on that ,**** its dissapeared, if anyone wants a laff il chuck on a picture.. shovelly you got no chance of fitting on that im 6,3 and you're bigger then that ya yeti...
 
I tried the RSV4 and it was tight but I could get away with it. The Dorso 12 is nice but the whole point of a Tard is light and flickable. The 750 is a little big. One of my mates bought a 4.5 at the beginning of the summer and his RSVR has languished and was only ridden a handful of times all summer as the tard was making him giggle so much that he always grabbed those keys.
I'm STILL not giving up my Tuono!!!
 
Ummmmmm NAKED BIKE!!

Ya takes the fairings off and add a flat bar.

Jaysus!!!
**** my old boot i never new that! looked like maybe few things were exposed , where fairing should have covered...only my opinion like
 
Well courtesy of Mr Snow, travel plans to bike show cancelled. Gutted. Anyhow, went for a cuppa with Aprilia dealer today and he's getting the RSV4SE soon, so will try and blag a go on that.
 
Further perusal makes me wonder wtf they were thinking when they designed the ram air intakes...
