Brand new to this forum. Don't own an Aprilia yet.... and may not! At least not this one. Read in this forum that bikes with engine numbers pre 8176929 MAY have suspect alternators. Found a nice clean low mile 08' Tuono with engine number (as emailed from the owner) ROTAX U990RR...

Good evening all, not been for a while, came off my bike in approximately 2015 and never bothered much with bikes for a while.

Hi folks. After getting rid of my RSVR 3 years ago for a Triumph Street Triple (purely for comfort reasons) I got an offer for it I couldn't refuse so it went. I was aware that someone local to me was after selling his 03 plate Mille, so a deal was done and it's now mine and here it is. Loving...

Hi chaps, It is a little while since I have been on here. So, I swapped my 2004 Tuono fighter for a blade nearly a couple of years back.... a silly mistake! My mate got a new Tuono and I have never been one for matching... but my loss. So I got the blade but either my bike is shrinking, or I am...

Hi everyone. It's been a long time since I have been on here. Hope you are all well! Basically I have not been able to ride my bike because I had a head on with a pizza delivery driver last year, his fault entirely! But all is settled now and I managed to keep my bike to. Just a few bits...

Hello all once again. I unfortunately had my pride and joy 03 RSV stolen just over a year ago by some little toe rags who proceeded to burn it. luckily in the year I owned it, it went abroad twice, all over the UK and a couple of track days at Cadwell. All was not lost. Here it was in...

For sale hepko and Becker sportrack to fit 1100 factory Tuono or any with the rsv4 back end, used on a touring trip to Ireland now getting the Ventura kit. I had a 50l givi box bolted to it and was too much weight for the pillion lock. Simply unlock your cowl or rear seat and this locks in leu...

Does anyone bother with grease on the backs of the pads in the Brembo calipers? Note if I do grease them, it will be proper brake grease and not copper grease. I know the potential pitfalls of using copper grease, cheers.

Back on board after 9 months away trying something German - didn't realise how much I missed Aprilias - in the words of Austin Powers "I've got my mojo back baby!"
