Been looking for 3 or 4 months, finally one came up 5 miles from my house. Had to pay through the nose from a Stealership (which cut me deep) but got exactly what I was after with minimum hassle.

This is my Tuono, there are many like it but this one is mine...

Nice, looks in mint condition! Cool

First thing I'd suggest changing... that side stand!!!

Indeed, ordered a fireblade stand from AP this afternoon. I've had 3 RSVs in the past so I know all about that awful stand!

Condition is amazing, only 11000 miles and the only small problem is the lion sticker peeling on the plastic cowl on the frame above the radiator.

Yes an 06 Ian. Did they change the calipers on later model years?

Although shouldn't get too carried away with its condition, wonder how long it will be until I get an electrical issue!?

Yup, from '07 (I think) they dropped the 4pad bridged  ones and went to conventional 2pad units

That sounds lovely snowman. Considering AP rearsets to sort rear brake! Definitely going 15t front, but need to pick up the bike first to see what gearing is currently on there!
