Hey guys, Just had a great ride out, got the new maxxix bedded in and they feel great, so neutral and smooth in the corners. Got home as sun was going down. I went out for about 2 hours, I didnt want it to end...That feeling is why we ride... Thought I would share this with you..fD...:inlove

hi everyone,chris here. glad to see the forum is alive and well again.still not good on a computer but trying! will try and add my name to andi's list for griff's scotland trip as am needing my forks done. spring is coming so got to get the bike ready for some good miles this year. keep it...

Ok guys opinions on standard protectors in leathers when you buy them v aftermarket ones which you wear under them. I'm not spending any more money on kit for the bike this year but have decided to just get updated risky kit. What's the best ones out there for your money an is it worth...

Hi New to the forum but not new to the TUONO. I had an 03 TUONO then swapped it for an 05 FACTORY,since that i've had a BMW GS 1200 ADV, ZZR 1400,TRIUMPH SPRINT 1050,TIGER 1050. I have bought a 10 plate T FACTORY back in december. Heres a list of what mods i've done since. MIVV X CONE PIPES...

only 2.5k miles so must be ok :eatcorn http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/APRILIA-RSV-MILLE-17-TOOTH-SPROCKET-/320825288463?pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item4ab2ad670f#ht_500wt_1287

Had the bike checked this morning to make sure it was on map 2 and it was , throttle bodies also fine so i will just have to get use to the lumpy bugger :big grin or fit power commander eventually . Rawly

(my bike is actually a Tuono....but I thought I'd post here for you guy's input...I hope that's ok?) ...still having problems cold starting the bike here. To bring you quickly up to speed, the battery is new...fully charged checks out in every way. As do the earths, connections & switches etc...

Whats the preffered handle bar position. I like mine rolled well forward in the clamps to put a bit more weight over the front. I would even consider trying a set of straighter bars to see if it feels even better, a bit like those on a Ducati streetfighter. Has anyone tried this ?

I've been very lucky in my life. I've had a few spills but nothing serious. Early this year I had unexpected crash.. as most are... and I tore up my leg 28 stitches later a lot working out & therapy I got back started riding in May... I got lucky got Tuono factory... which has been best recovery...

... not that any of you would have missed me, I'm sure. Black 2004 has gone (written off, February 2009, oops), replaced by a silver/black 2008. Few mods, including Ohlins rear shock, but I'm thinking I really should have saved up for one of the last Factory V2 versions in Black Dream colour...

As the tittle says really, i own a Tuono R Gen 2 and would like to know what the top speed is limited to, and is this limited by engine rpm or rear wheel rotation, or something else, if it's rpm, what rpm is the limit and in what gear, the reason i ask is because at the moment i have 15/40...

i love riding in the rain But i have never had a bike that gets my back sooo wet from spray from the back wheel:thumbdown, im always cleaning mud, grit and general road dirt off my jackets looking at the size of my number plate and placement (standard 08 factory) you'd find it hard to see how...

The legend of the Tuono back brake never really bothered me, as I never use it, however I have noticed that it is now starting to bind. Anyone else have this problem?

crashed it at reading services feb 2010 and totalled it. was red - lots of scavenging on fleabay - all colours of panels and now it's black! (I'd call it stealth matt black carbon fibre if I was a complete knobber) bottom line is changed the leaking tank yesterday and really, REALLY chuffed -...

Gents (and ladies), The tale of woe has come to a fabulous conclusion. Back on Martin Luther King (MLK), I dropped my "Mistress" (as my wife calls her) on some recently sanded tight turns in the Angeles Forest north of Los Angeles. I was in deep mourning for many months. A good friend...

My mate bought this last week for £40 from his mate at work, never been "used" (ie crashed in!) but it's just too big..................he needs the medium!! In perfect condition with no problems (not really alot can go wrong with them!!) all velcro etc... fine. Size large (9 plate version) 26...

The title says it all really. Me + my daughter Lucie and my young mate Matt on his RS125 were our for a run yesterday and decided to head for the bike shop in Kidderminster. All going to plan ... nice steady run. When we got to the big roundabout in Kiddy ... there, tootling round it at...

Right reposting this as Stix originally posted but put wrong date. I've had a few snifters now started a nice bottle of red and am now feeling brave enough to repost with the right date. Route is Abergavenny to Brecon, lower chapel upper chapel, Builth, llandrindod, crossgates, newtown...
