rode my new bike home in the rain ,,but really enjoyed it nonetheless

I've got one of them. Utterly brilliant bike. Get the gabro ecu reflash for even more power everywhere.

Need to change clutch slave cylinder seal on gen 2 tuono, as it's weeping slightly... At least a cheap fix

Took advantage of the dry weather this morning and rode it to Minehead , stopped at Riders of Bridgewater for a coffee on the way down , such a great bike to ride , great for overtakes and twisty roads as its so small and light , Got home just before the rain started .

i bet

what year is yours nicodemon ,,which mode uses more fuel do you think ?

nickodemon · « **Reply #1485 on:** 28 June 2016, 11:32:06 pm »

i've got a 12 plate. T mode will use the most, then S mode. R mode will use the least as it restricts the bike to 125hp

What screen is that you have fitted... Don't recognise it. Mine is a sport mra with cut down rubbers.

downey · « **Reply #1487 on:** 28 June 2016, 11:42:26 pm »

ahhh,,how long you got it ? any issues with it ?
must say im much enjoying it very very much although gotta adjust the damper as it can get very light in the front

downey · « **Reply #1488 on:** 28 June 2016, 11:46:29 pm »

its an MRA , would prefer if it was tinted though,,wonderin how i can do this on the cheap ,,without replacing it

nickodemon · « **Reply #1489 on:** 28 June 2016, 11:49:47 pm »

I've had mine since it was 5 weeks old. Only issue was condensation in the headlight which was replaced under warranty. I have disconnected exhaust valve cables and had my ecu reflashed by gabro racing.... More power everywhere and even less to the gallon

I have converted to single seater and fitted carbon here and there.. Also fitted a compes werkes gp can

If you are worried about it getting too light on the front (I don't find that) You can turn up the anti wheelie to feel safer. I popped a wheelie outside local pub and because i was going up a steep hill it came down VERY quickly

I think you must have the touring screen that has had the rubbers cut down or removed..

mines a 2011 factory aprc version ...ya ive an rsv4 tail unit on mine with integrated indicators ,has a full system with exhaust mod done something about paddle or flaps

i dunno,sounds well though,lots of carbon on it too,,lookin forward to puttin it on a rolling road just to see wat it puts out

nickodemon · « **Reply #1491 on:** 29 June 2016, 12:19:51 am »

Yeah mines an aprc model too..Aprilia didn't make a factory version until the 1100 came out in 2015. Your bike has had motografix stickers attached to it.

downey · « **Reply #1492 on:** 29 June 2016, 12:22:15 am »

ahhh ,thanks i think

,,well i hope its as reliable as my fazer

nickodemon · « **Reply #1493 on:** 29 June 2016, 12:26:22 am »

The 2011 - 2013 models were basically the same.Either black or silver or yellow The 2014 had a tank capacity increase of 1 ltr

downey · « **Reply #1494 on:** 29 June 2016, 12:35:53 am »

very very nice,,no sooner had i bought it and had to have the headlight opened as the projector fell forward into the unit,tbf the last owner paid my mechanic to fix it,without problem thank god,apparently they had been tampered with previously

,last owner "says " he knew nothing,,anyway its so much more fun than the s1000rr,,anyway ,"hoggin" the thread

..savage machine, credit to ya

Dragged my son's 2006 RMZ250 out of my lock-up into my garage to sort it out before I go an embarrass myself at a local motocross practice track in a couple of weeks time.

had to swap places with my fazer so she now sits in the lock-up with about 3 u-locks and multiple chains and padlocks securing her
