Ok, not a first Gen but..

I can't contain my glee.
There was a story of a dude that sold his Aprilia Tuono and regretted that choice almost immediately and had lived in jealous depression for years. Enough was enough and after a brief visit with his old bike the dude declared that he must get his beloved Tuono back.
Fast forward 8 years and bam, there just happens to be one in the back of the dudes truck. My wife decided for me so I had to go with the decision. The dude is now extremely stoked!!


I present my new -to me 2016 Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory. 2200 miles

 

Wow. That is uber-cool. Congrats!!

 

Congrats - she's gorgeous!

 

WOW!!!!!!!! LOVE IT

 

Update on the little tiny bike. I finally chose a tank bag system and man is it the bomb. I went with Motech -German. Custom tank rings to fit most bikes and a latching system that is uber adjustable and so quick on installation and removal! I have hated backpacks since day one so I splurged during black Friday and found some smokin' deals for my gear. Motocard - Spain had like 30% off and waiting was the only painful part. lol

Pic 1 is the ring that will always stay on the tank replacing the original tank ring from Aprilia.
Pic 2 is my Hawk fall pic...hahaha
Pic 3 is the gap between controls and whatnot. Perfect for hat, sweatshirt, keys, gate openers, sunglasses, neck warmer, and it expands upwards if necessary.
Currently in full forward mode. I didn't realize how much it hangs off in the front so I will back it up a little although there is no downwards pressure on the front of the bag besides residual weight.

 

Very very nice
