    I've heard that RGs aren't getting any until next year.
    The dealers over east are getting their first shipment this month.

    Women are like motorcycles, they should be ridden hard and kept well lubricated ...

    Ah, I called them a month ago and they said they weren't getting them until next year. I guess something changed.

    +1 on the nose cone. I called into Rick Gills when they were uncrating the first bike a couple of weeks back, looks like some kind of robot with that front end. No thankyou

    Aprilia have always had their own style...

    I really like Aprilias, but the Tuono has always looked not quite right...

    Man with the inside knowledge, do you know if they are going to make a Tuono factory with ohlins ec?
    Men have motorcycles while women have mensutral cycles, you can't talk to either while they are on it. The women's also has a sound, it goes nag-na-nag-nag-nag, biiiiiitch-bitch-biiiiiiiitch!

    They always make a factory version. Just depends how long you'll have to wait.

    Given they all get the good brakes and sweet electronics the factory makes little sense to me for the tuono. Rather spend the difference on some BST's
    Gutsy question. You're a shark. Sharks are winners, and they don't look back because they have no necks. Necks are for sheep.
