Pics or it did not happen:)

Selling an F4I is a crime punishable by death:td:

Congrats with the new toy!

I got rid of my trusty Yamaha for a BMW and a MZ (no longer made, good friggin luck finding PARTS ya bastard) so I'm somewhat in the same boat.

All is great till time for service or a part breaks and then we're screwed!

Nice.

The B4 is still japanese.

But even without that, between 2 eye-talian bikes, I figure on at least one of them running at least 50% of the time. Just hope the times they don't are during winter. :D

always loved the Tuono... at one point it was on my short list for bikes... may eventually get one.

:?: Definitely like the newer look better!

Wish I could buy it, but I can't at this time :td: Tried to put my father in law on it but he's wanting a cruiser instead.

Nice bike. What is an "air" mod? K&N filter? Ram air?

Don't worry about aprilia reliability. I have 20k on my 05 Tuono and it's running strong.

Sweet ride Hugh!! :dthumb:

Derestricted airbox and Hi-flow filter

the tuonos dont realy have the electrical gremlins that the other bikes do, do they?

The motor on my futura is rock solid but the electrical/charging system has caused most of my downtime.

No real electrical gremlins other than the battery. I put 15k on my stock battery, but I was riding everyday. If the bike sat for any more than a week I put it on the battery tender. Another piece of good advice I got was to ensure the kill switch is on the off position when parked, if it's in the run position it will allow a small charge to be pulled and eventually kill the battery.
