So, after looking around and pontificating for far too long, I'm now the owner of a Tuono RSV4 RR.
Not got it yet, it will be delivered next week. The dealer is going to service it, including the valve check and adjustment if needed, and do the ownership change.
@Tricky I rode my mates MT10-SP a couple of years ago at Flash's in France. It was great, very quick, handled superbly BUT it didn't feel anything special, if that makes sense. Sitting on it was like sitting on any other MT Yamaha.
I liked my RC8 and RC8-R, as they were both that bit different from any other KTM, so "special". The Tuono has that similar feel for me.
The local repair place had an MV Augusta Rush 1000 in for a service when I last popped in. When I had a proper look, I could see why they are €50,000. Everything looked beautifully made. Maybe if I win tthe Spanish lottery, but the Tuono will do for now.
Health to enjy,man.
Early model,or more recent?
Don't forget to start a thread in 'Owners/Projects'. I hope the thread will be busy for all the right reasons.
Yeah, what the geetar man said!
Especially as I dont kow what one is...

At last the bike was delivered this morning. The dealer needed to service it, and then find a delivery slot when I would be home. I have been very busy, even too busy for a new bike.

Looking forward to giving it a ride, but busy again all day today and tomorrow, and off to MotoGP on Thursday afternoon. Will have to wait until Wednesday next week now....

I would do, but the insurance company have stated it is only me insured to ride it.
Odd really, as all my other bikes and cars are insured for any driver over 25 with the appropriate licence.
