noob

Just a quick hello from me. Picked up my 06 RSV-R last week after a few years of inline 4's, absolutely loving it. Not been the weather to properly enjoy it yet, fantastic British summer as per usual....! Any pointers or tips of things to look out for appreciated, always found forums to be...

Hi all, I've been looking at 07-10 Tuonos for a while now and found a mint 2009 up for sale by a local private party. Gonna go take look this weekend and if all is good hope to be a new T owner. The only question I have is will this bike murder me? I'm 43, started riding 4 yrs ago. Took...

Hi y'all

Hello all, no, I don't own a Tuono....... I wish I did. I have a Moto Guzzi GRISO 8V SE and a Honda VFR. Both very nice bikes each with a character of it's own. Most often I ride the Griso but the VFR has made me realise the virtues of V4 engines. If only the VFR engine displacement was...

Evening all. Been a (happy !!) Tuono owner since August when I finished with sports bikes. Cannot believe just how good these bikes are. Already on a couple of forums, came across you wonderful chaps a couple of nights ago. Have done the fireblade sidestand mod. Had Griff do the AP...

Hi all, I'm Dave, I have been biking for over 20 years. I have had lots of different bikes in my time from the smallest of twist and goes (Honda PX50) to the fastest Hyper-sports tourer (Kawasaki ZZR1400) and I am now awaiting my First Aprilia (2001 RSV Mille) to go with my 2001 ZZR1100 D7. I...

Hi all, I've just finished a 310 mile ride back from Scotland on my new RSVR. I bought it there and rode it back to Birmingham, finishing my journey to Devon tomorrow. I've got a 7500 mile, 2008, white one. I'm loving it so far, I'll let you know tomorrow how I like it in the rain! It's got a...

Hi all. Just thought I'd pop in and say hi, I currently have a blackbird but hoping to get a Tuono soon (providing I can get used to the v-twin engine) Any help you lot can offer is gratefully appreciated. Tia.

Hi all, newbie alert! I've just bought a 99 RSV, completely stock. Never owned one or any V twin before but always loved how the early RSV's looked and have been told by people who own them or have owned them to just buy one :) I haven't owned a big bike in over 10 years as I lost the love...

I noticed that my bike is really tough to roll around (when not running), and it has a tendency to "jump" a little bit if I start it in gear, with the clutch lever fully pulled. In neutral it is fine. I don't remember my old Gixxer doing this. Is this normal or do I maybe need to bleed the...

Hi there, I just picked up my first Aprilia-- a 07 RSV1000R. I will post pics next time. Glad to be part of the forum. Cheers!

Hello all, I've always loved Aprilia's but just never made it happen.. I was a hair away from picking up the new Monster 1200 when the Tuono sitting across the Isle called to me. She was a beauty. So I switched gears (no pun intended) and put a deposit down on a black Tuono. Should be here...
