Aprilia Tuono
|
Saw one of these today, the 07 model and fell in love with it.
If I chop my bike in against it, I get it for 170 a month over three
years, this a just about affordable, but I have a few concerns.
After being used to 4 cylinder bikes and enjoying the high revs, how
am I going to get on with a twin? Its a high power twin, but im
concerned that I wont like it (the dealer cant give a test ride).
|
No unfortunatly Im on the Isle of Man and there is only the one dealer.
Kinda puts me in a spot really.
|
I was going to get a GSXR 750 K8, but may well swing toward the Tuono
instead.
|
Exactly what I am afraid of.
Thanks for the reply - I have emailed the guy and said that I cant even
consider it without a test ride first, now I have had a chance to think
about it, and dont feel the need to go out and get it immediatly, the
pressures off a bit.
Thank god I didnt have my cheque book :)
|
Is it practical to carry a pillion on the Aprilia, or will it be as
bad as the GSXR?
And generally speaking, what is the backup like and how good is the
availability of accessories?
|
backup depends on your dealer. if you're in the london area, the aprilia
centre are good people but don't have a lot of space so you may need to
be flexible.
accessories, try taking a peek at http://rsvr.net/

Anyone in the know ?
