I would defintely want a test ride on the v4r tuono, as i've never had an Italian bike before. I have read loads of reviews and they all seem positive. It has one of the most advanced electronics systems incorporated on any bike (APRC model). Traction control, wheelie control and quick shifter. The APRC also comes with a steering damper. I probably couldn't afford the APRC model :'( The cost of the basic model, which has road, sport and race modes (similar to gsxr's etc..) can be found new for £9500. An aprc second hand demo bike with 1600 miles is the same price :\ The question is - Do i buy a brand new base model or get the trick version secondhand :rolleyes This is all hypothetical until i've ridden it! I would have to sell my gsxr 1000 k6 and my standard fazer 1000 to offset the cost. Regarding the speed triple it doesn't have enough performance and handling advantages compared to my ivanised fazer to make it worth the outlay. Decisions decisions..... Does anyone want to buy my Kawasaki fx400r for £2000 :lol
If it's broken, it's not fixed.
