Cheers Nick, funnily enough I was just reading your 'how to fit straight bars' post on one of the other sites! Nice job I thought this one might not feel so good as the Ohlins on my other bike but to be honest there's not that much in it. This one still feels rock steady.

Rich nice bike. At least without the ohlins you have not worries about those fork seals going every few months......unless its the photo looks like someone has sorted that coolent pipe rh side that gets cut into by the bottom edge of the plastic panel.....it's the one that covers the coolent reservoir....
Great bikes best ever you will love it....

I read about that on the RSVR forum. Hope you are recovering mate. Is the bike totalled or are you going to rebuild it?

Picked up my early 50th last week, an o7 Tuono Factory. Nice one. Mine's an R (not a Factory) but they are still fantastic bikes. Once you have experienced grunt and wheelies like these bikes do there's no going back!

It's a battle to keep front wheel in contact with the road! And it's a rocket out of the bends too.
