Classic Motorcycle Mechanics

Tuono turns 15!

- Jon Law

Hi CMM! The Tuono just turned 15! If you ever wanted to do an article on this bike I own number 139 of the original 200 pre-production bikes Aprilia made to test the market. It’s the 2002 RSV-R with carbon bodywork, OZ wheels, Ohlins suspension, Kevlar seat etc. It would be nice to see an emerging Italian classic in your mag (I know you are a Mille fan, Bertie!) Anyway, keep up the good mix of old and emerging classics. I think it keeps things fresh and interestin­g. By the way, I also have a lovely 1987 threeowner GSX-R750H in blue (the last of the Slabbies) and a Yamaha XT500 under restoratio­n.
