Hi. I'm getting a crash damaged 2006 back on the road and she's now tip top mechanically. I've taken delivery of some after market race panels and - eek! The first panel I pick up - a rear left side panel has the seat unlock keyhole in a different place and the join line to the rear panel is...

Went in the garage for first time in a week to find my bike has pissed itself all over the floor. Looks like the resin tank & fuel pump O ring have fallen out over Xmas. A quartar tank of fuel puddled up underneath her. Not such a big deal really except my brand new barely scrubbed in rear tyre...

Hello. New to the forum. Bought a RSV4 RR Race Pack yesterday (it's the RF spec without the RF paint scheme that we get here in Oz). Over the next few weeks I'll be converting it to a race bike to run in our local Club series. This is my first Aprilia. My current race bike is a BMW HP4. I...

Hey everyone, Simon here from Upper Hutt, New Zealand. Here's my Gen 1 Tuono R (2005). It's mostly stock, with the exception of the fairings and side covers being replaced by all the carbon fibre goodies, GP One levers and braided lines for brakes. Still getting used to it after a week...

Took the new V4 out today. Quick lunchtime run to Ardgour, 14 miles. Had a drink, went to start the bike and it wouldn't start. I'd read about the hot start problems, so immediately assumed it was that. Left it for 15 mins, still wouldn't start. Had to get a jump start. Rode it back, stopped it...

Hi guys, I got a strange case here. This happenned two me at least three times this summer. When I try to start the bike after a short 15 minutes break of hot summer day riding (30 degrees celsius), the bike wont start up. The starter turns healthy but the bike refuses to start. It takes...

Fits all 2002-2016 Tuonos Used it twice. I wish I had a picture of it on the bike for you. Super sweet though. The lettering is slightly defected, came like that new. Other than that now rips, tears or stains. Paid $160 Selling $125 plus shipping.

Hi love my Tuono to bits only had it 6 months so plenty of time before I consider changing if at all even... Which brings me to thinking what would current V4 Tuono owners choose for their next bike? Think Tuono is hard to beat... Think only downsides for me is seat. small pain, not much pull...

Hi, in the middle of Spain at this moment, and have what seems to be a fuel problem. Bike is cutting out intermittently. It's a rsv Mille R (2000). Seems like fuel starvation, any ideas anyone? The efi message flashes when it happens.

Sadly not, as the title might suggest, me picking up a shiny new tuono. Insurance assessors picked up my 2008 R after an altercation with a dozy bint who pulled a U turn on me as I was filtering past stationary traffic. Im ok, bike has road rash all down one side - aargh! On the...
