Hi all new to forum, after not having bikes for over 13 years I felt the urge to get back into it. Ive had licence 31 years and various blades and Gsxrs FZRs through the 90s thought its time to try a V4 italian. Few mates have brought Harleys since we all hit late 40s but i just cant bear them, I wanted handling and power still.....The V4 factory seemed perfect and great deals this time of year, so been working hard and its my early xmas pressi to me.

Ive ordered new Tuono with tail tidy and Akra can and the factory dealer map that still keeps warranty. I notice when they add map a little Aprilia racing logo appears in bottom left of screen. Has anyone else had this done from dealer.?

Looking forward to summer, im getting bike delivered 2nd jan.

Welcome,sounds like a good way to get back into bikes

Funnily enough having a pair of Apes I'm now starting to see the attraction of a Hardly for warm summer rides without the urge to get my knee down or ride fast,both of which my present bikes urge me to do.

Yeah never had straight handlebar bike...fast but tiny bit of comfort. Funny getting insurance for it though, as ive no no claims because had no bikes in last two years, they want crazy money. cheapest I got it for was £790.00 thats with 3 points for sp30, age 47. As soon as they hear V4 puts you in highest category.

Congrats Pal

End of may this year I purchased a 2018 factory Tuono complete with Race Akrapovic that came with the Map code...dealer installed at pdi along with the Map an insured me that  warranty was still valid with it been offiacial Aprilia Exhaust and code..

Get used to have a bad jaw from smiling so much once she's is ran in and first service completed....I'm coming from s1000rr and new r1,s but age and a broken back helped me decide the upright riding position was a must, these are amazing bikes and the noise alone from that pipe is orgasmic

All the best Wayne 🇮🇲
