    New Tuono Owner

    I just bought a 2004 Tuono 1000r and thought I'd say hello and show it off a little. It's bone stock except for the bar ends but i think I'm going to switch back the normal mirrors, I don't really like how far I have to look to see the mirrors. Here's the garage right now.

    Average age of a Tuono owner?

    Since purchasing one of these fine (but temperamental) machines & and frankly loving every ******* minute of the experience, I was just wondering about the general demographic of ownership? Looking at some of the T forums it seem's that it's the grumpy old *******s choice of steed? Why is this???
