Today i test rode the Tuono.....
 
and all i can say is brill...and giggle

It was very slippy and wet but they still let me take it out, the bike was a 57 plate datona special with the akrapovic pipes sans baffles (yum) and map 2, with only 100 miles on it.

I didnt take it too far, but gave it a trip thorugh town and down the motorway to my house to check with kitten it was pretty enough, it takes a lot of restraint not to go triple figures over and over again.... but my license preservation kicked in and kept it tame and under 6k rpm as it was not yet broken in. I giggled like a girl, and have never had so much fun on a bike...ever

The Tuono is awsome, brakes awsome even in the wet, engine.. imense... soo much power, i dread to rink what it will be like above 6 k Rpm. Finish is great and the paint looks glossy and generally very well built. I can see it having everyday relaibility and practicallity.

Overall i loved it, and i will buy one, they offered me a blue and white one for £6500, which i nearly had there and then, but must wait.

Any way..

merry crimbly to all.. heres hoping santa took my hints and theres a tuono under the tree?

Cheers

Alex
