long

Hi Everyone, Ive just joined this site as I have been trying to start my 2002 RSV mille after a year long lay up, the battery was obviously flat so I have charged that and spun the bike over on a jump start, I have put fresh fuel in the tank and although the bike spins over fast with no choke...

Looking forward to picking up my Factory this week. Just sold my '12 CBR 1000 RR (Fireblade to the rest of the world) and still have a Yamaha FJ-09. Loved the CBR, but found the ergos tiring - I'm about to be 67. Hope to enjoy the Tuono and this forum.

Hi all..just did a three day 1500km ride to victorian border country on my capo 1200. Good.. sticks to the road like glue, comfortable for a big guy (190cm), Add suspension works a treat and engine likes to rev.. Neutral...screen too small and guzzles fuel and cant filter with panniers also over...

The nights are getting longer, the daffodils are starting to bloom, clocks soon changing, birds singing on a morning. Can only mean one thing to those of us that are scared of the cold. It's time to drag the Tuono out of the back of the garage, kick the tyres, boost the battery, cross your...

Can't take it anymore leaving my baby on a drip charge in the cold shed

Grp or carbon any condition considered

Hi folks as the title says. Still got the factory but she's been sat in the garage barely used for ages, just lost interest in biking. Was seriously contemplating selling her but just couldn't do it, would never get anything like her again.So got my mojo back now and plan to do some serious...

I'm after a longer belly pan for my '07 Tuono R, do you know if a factory one fits straight on and does anyone have one for sale ? Thanks, Nick

Noticed the birds tweeting on my way to work. Flowers starting to grow in the garden. Not be long now till we get the urge to dig the t out of the back of the garage. Hope you have been banking those brownie points up with the other half. Doing those winter jobs on the bike. What...

Hi all, Some may frown on a new forum member posting straight on the classifieds, but I do have a good reason. I need to shift this to be able to buy the gen 1 magnet grey Tuono that I have found. So if you or anyone you know is after a first big bike/small tourere/commuter, read on....Its...

Bought my Mille earlier this year ,cat c , frame has some damage so I got another frame with it So now it's winter , how long would you reckon it'll take to do a frame swap ? This is assuming no seized bolts and that sort of stuff Also any advice on how to proceed with this ? Thanks Mike

Hi people, Have not been on here for ever it seems. Life gets kinds busy sometimes, and sometimes I get too busy !! So what a tangled web we weave etc!! Just getting settled back into my own place,glad I rented it out and didnt sell it !! The Tuono has not had much use in the last year shocking...

Guys, reporting as I'm like a dick and posted in the wrong forum, I have the long arrow cans on my 2009 T1000 and was thinking about changing them for the Mivv GP style, wa you guys opinions on both types? If I get the mivv's should I run on map 1 or 2? Any advice taken on board! Cheers

Hi Just bought an '03 RSV Gen 2 Factory track bike as didn't fancy risking the '07 Tuono R on track days - o.k. that doesn't make a lot of sense as there probably worth about the same - always fancied a factory so maybe my heart over-ruled my head on this one. The RSV had a spot of...

Hey Guys New Member from Long Island here. I joined because I am in the process of buying my first Aprilia and I am looking at a 2007 Tuono 1000R Would any one be able to tell me what I should be looking for on thesee bikes? What the differences are between the Regular Tuono, the R and the...

Hi, not sure if I've mentioned I'm going to the TT :yes, on 2nd June. Its a long ride to Heysham from Mablethorpe, then lots of riding whilst over there. Any particular (Tuono specific) areas I should give extra attention to, before such a lot of riding away from home? Daz
