Is it me or is there so many good deals out at the moment on new bikes?

I am not looking to buy until the end of May but Ive been back and forth now over a few options. I wouldnt mind going upto a 1000cc so have been looking at the SV1000 also Aprilia's RSV and Tuono.

The Tuono seems to be winning for me - i've never been a big fan of naked bikes but this seems to have a good pedigree plus a little unusual looking. Trying to line up a test ride seems to be a problem around my area though. The other one I like is the new ZX6. Anything more than this and the insurance scares me back to reality... that as well as the thought of my first BIG bike makes me go middle ground rather than the big step.

Has anyone else been tempted for a change if so what? Anyone ridden the Tuono - or know of any issues (other than the acquired taste)? their forum is rubbish.
