Iconic race colours. I have a V&M team shirt tucked away somewhere singed by a few of the riders.

The white looks much better than that G a y gold wheels you have on your T Baz. :biggrin2

Perhaps we can start up a North East Tuono club.

What do you think chaps........ ;)

As a Tuono owner also, I personally think that's hideous :eek

Lose the high cans, the stoopid bar end mirrors, the horrendous ionised brake cap, and the gratuitous screen, and I'll turn a blind eye to the white painted wheels :2up


*Edit* to say....OMFG I've just noticed the blue radiator hoses....it's like a fegging whores handbag ffs

Bit sharp dont you think!! I am the proud owner of a Tuono Factory (my second one) and I reckon Steves purchase is a smart piece of kit. :2up Perhaps one or 2 of the mods is not what I would do personally, but overall its a smart package and I would be well chuffed to own it.

Sometimes its better to keep ones opinions to oneself for the sake of insulting a proud owners new machinery. :nono

Nice bike Steve. Ignore the piss takers you bought the bike because you like it not for anyone else.

The bar end mirrors are no longer on the bike, the ionoised resevoir covers are back to normal black. Thanks for your opinion :2up It's all about personal choice :hippy

I quite like the look of the high end cans, but totally impracticle (no where to hook on a tailpack)

I have a set of stainless steel Akras for the t which we could work a deal on :deal

Could be interested but the bike comes with the original cans that have been cored using 80mm pipe, LOUD :arse

Glad to hear it! Bar end mirrors are next to useless (if the rider even bothers to look in them) and look pants on any bike.

Sorry Ducati, but If I ever got a Hypermotard I'd have to fit proper mirrors to it rather than use those fold out jobbies!
