Finally got to ride the Tuono.
It'll take me a while to get used to using the blipper, as it feels like abuse, downshifting with no clutch, but I'll get used to it.
I miss the visceral grunt of a twin pulsing out of a corner, but she sure is quick.
I have to turn down the traction control and anti wheelie, as I'm getting flashing lights in the dash every time I accelerate, leant over, on damp leaves....
But it hasn't dumped me in a ditch yet.
Cruise control is surprisingly useful.
You have to test ride one of these, but only if you can afford to buy one, because you'll want to......
But the sound doesn't match the 2....
Good to hear your opinion on the new bike Tony
Chris.

200 quid well spent.
-if you like street fighter style.
It'll cost too much to put right otherwise.
Track bike, Duffy?

Thanks Chris structurally frame forks and engine wise it’s sound.
Just the plastics and a few levers to sort.
It was a low speed off but fell awkwardly by the look of it
