Recommend me a bike.

Gen 1 or Gen 2, V - Twin, Tuono.


Perfect for the taller rider, great engine, reliability, tourability, tinker-ability and huge amounts of character.


It's also fast (enough) without feeling like  mega super-bike......... and they're cheap compared to a KTM/BMW 800 etc............. and hugely better than a TNT, with superb build quality and like here, an awesome on-line owners club (aprilia forum).

I like the tono, i really do


But already discounted on basis of general reliability or at least reputational reliability isnt up to jap levels yet.


I see you have an Aprillia so maybe you beg to differ on this fact........how many high mileage Aprillias and particularly tuonos are out there....how robust are the electrics & do they tarnish quickly compared to jap stuff????
