Aprilia's 2011 Tuono. Makes you think, eh?

More so than the high power V4, it makes me think about being sick to my stomach... :comp13:

V-four-gasm....

LOL ... did you just make that up? :laughing6-hehe:

Still waiting to see how much its going to cost, still looks better than that CB1000R!

I guess I did; call it inspiration.

@Seb: I kind of agree. They should have come up with a unique (smaller) headlight setup instead of a rehashed RSV4 copy that is missing any sort of flyscreen. I'd still ride the pi$$ out of it.

Teleskier's license plate on his 5th gen read/reads "V4GSM".

Meow.

Ugly. Needs a windscreen and to lose some width from the upper cowl. I'd take that motor on the CB1000R, minus that fugly ninja star rear wheel.

I kind of like the chaotic look of the old one better, although the front of the new one does look much nicer than the old one.

Channeling Timmy?

OH MAN!! Knowing what I do about the RSV, if this is 1/2 the bike it is, I would LOVE to have it. :wub:


Edit:

that being said, it isn't quite THIS beautiful:

On second thought, I'll take the new V4 motor in the old Tuono body, minus the Dutch sodomist. :goofy:

I like it in red white green, but even in black I'd hit it. :fing02:
I love my 2003 V twin Tuono, this can only be better and faster.
And, you can't see what it looks like when you're riding it. :beer:

I've been drooling over it without pics since they announced the RSV4. :goofy:

I love the gloss black (just like my VFR) but that tricoleur paint scheme is brilliant.

Any bike even an homologated racer is a few mods away from decent ergros at the Busy Little Shop... someone send me a Maximized RSV4 and I'll not only make it street legal but with decent ergros to boot...

I thought it was too easy. Someone had to have preceded me. Ups to Teleskier!

I think I could ride the snot out of that bike.

Tuono, ugly; RSV4 Factory (mine), not.

A sweet ride, for sure. But you got Dagmars for bar ends. :goofy:

Cool hopper, Seb. What did you do to the poor bastige? :biggrin:
