1198 Out Tuono Aprc In.

Discussion in 'Other Bikes' started by Proddieracer, Mar 20, 2015.

  1. New pre registered 2014 model year Tuono APRC ABS. Reg in Jan 2015 on a 64 plate. Warranty started upon collection so that was a bonus.

    Got it from Wheels in Peterborough. David was a nice easy chap to deal with.

    New otr at a tad over £10k which I thought was reasonable. I rode it c55/60 miles home and it is a truly mad thing.

  2. My mate loves his, ditch the can as he reckonsit transforms it
     
  3. Bradders I have about £1500 worth of Ducati accessories to sell first before I dare spend a penny on the Tuono. I get away with lots but she would strongly object to me spending on it first whilst I have a garage full of 1198 upgrade bits to sell.
     
  4. That looks sedate, have fun.
     
  5. Cant beat a new bike
     
  6. Yup, great bike. I have the exact same bike. I put a race system on (Akrapovic) and job done.

  7. I have these two as well. So maybe get rid of the SRAD this year for a big cruiser and then I have a balanced stable.

  8. I have an SRAD 600, can't bring myself to sell it as hardly worth anything but a really great bike. Hoping it is a future classic.
     
  9. What items have you got for sale ?
     
  10. I have listed an advert in the for sale section.

  12. I am only looking at possibly changing the bars or risers. Probably a tail tidy, remove rear pegs and a smaller can just for the looks. It is an awesome bike and such fun without the need to do daft speeds too.

  14. Didn't do much with mine. Tail tidy, Akrapovic with decat, race map, Conquest Carbon bouts, Evotech levers and R&G bits. Its still ugly compared to my 1098 SF but goes and sounds pretty smart...

  15. What are the MV like to live with? Its a lively looking bike.
     
  16. I have had it 5 years now and love it. However they are an acquired taste due to the fairly extreme riding position. However it is murderously fast. It used to run a bit hot but I have spent a bit this year on upgraded water pump, engine ice, samco hoses, alloy fans etc. It also has a microtec ECU and modded exhaust so it punches almost 180 bhp at the tyre on 95 fuel !
     
  17. Flipin ell. Not tempted with the dragster? Wire wheels?
     
  18. Dragster is just not my speed.
