    i am afraid its time to say good by i have sold my speed twin. its a fantastic bike but i just needed that little bit more out of a bike. so it was a two horse race between a speed triple r and a aprilia gen 2 tuono factory i have already owned a speed triple which was fantastic but i have always fancied a bonkers tuono been and bought one being delivered next week. probably not the most reliable bike dont now much about them only what i have read mostly horror stories. it looks like this Aprilia Tuono Factory 08  1.jpg

    Owned mine for 6 years never had a problem. Most of the reliability fables are just that, legacy of the days where italian bikes didn't like rain. if it's been well looked after and not fettled by a amateur enthusiast then it should give you many years of hooliganism. Top tip, any problems go to see (or phone) Griff who owns APWorkshops https://www.apworkshops.co.uk

    Hey Bob, they even let me stay when I only owned a Harley and a Ditchpump...
    (And secretly: one of the admin officials is a big Tuono fan!) Wouldn‘t ever tell you that his name is Ron!

    I had one, such a fun bike. Never had a single problem and I’d buy another one for sure.

    It's a shame that you are having to get rid of your Speed Twin Bob, nice choice of replacement though, the Gen 2 Tuono's are still gorgeous looking machines that come with that beautiful grunty V Twin power, I consider myself extremely lucky that at this time I am able to own a Speed Twin and also a Tuono V4RR which is also an amazing machine, I have had 3 big Aprilia's over the years and never really had too much trouble with them just the odd minor issue. Enjoy your new bike and ride safe mate!
