I love the Tuonos, look so odd and agressive.

Bike cover looks awesome too, even if mine is garaged Razz

+1,

did you make that yourself or buy it?

If you made it care to share the design? May come in handy in the future when I get kicked out of my council garage for too much noise Laughing

Non bikers really dont like 2-stroke at 7 in the morning Wink

Thanks for the comments guys , the cover is from ebay, https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260673058330&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

added the base myself , just some 15mm board from B&Q for the paddock stands, makes it nice and easy when you get back from a ride just wheel it in Smile

I always thought that tuonos looked like they are going to headbutt or rape you Twisted Evil

Fitted a 15 t front sprocket , mini indicators , got cans of ebay then decat and core them so the child in me can giggle everytime it sets of car alarms.

Anyone thinking of getting one should, best decision ever

Have you nearly snapped your head off your neck yet? Anything really over 120ish. Thumbs Up You don't notice the lack of screen until you get out in the open, remember my 250 mile trip on my 990SM.

For £70 you can't go wrong , worth checking ebay as theres lots of different ones but needs to be on a level base/floor .

I love the fact it is ugly but I always liked the old saabs , like I said looks like its gonna mug you Twisted Evil

I actually find the Tuono not significantly worse than your average superbike fairing for wind blast. It's actually classed as a part faired bike, rather than naked: The nose is relatively large and very effective at deflecting wind around the rider (even better with a taller screen). Much more than, say, the Speed Triple, Superduke, or more traditional naked bikes that just have headlights and maybe a fly screen, if you're lucky.

IME, long motorway blasts at outside lane motorway speeds are probably actually a little more comfortable than the average superbike in so far as you're not crouched over, and the difference in windblast on your torso is minimal.

Obviously, it's also nothing like a big sports tourer, which offers much greater comfort at prolonged high speeds.
