Not so much pissed off as sad to see my old faithful taliban taxi taken away for scrap. On the plus side, I made a charity donation of it through "Giveacar" http://www.giveacar.co.uk

Had my amex card details used by someone online to spend £1300, good job I don't have to pay it, just a pain having to have a new card. Last time my card details were used was 2006 when we had a little action on here with legal action being threatened, eh Biggus ?

Tuono is just a naked RSV right so shouldn't it work just fine?

you'd think in theory, however (i think) they are geared for different top speeds therefore I suspect the ECU is running a different firmware/map

Having ridden both I would say this is correct.

There are three part numbers listed for the Tuono. 266531 is the original one that i have with fueling issues......266532 is the quick fix and 266533 is the latest map and the one to have. NONE appear on e-bay. I'm being advised at the moment by a guy who works for Aprilia and we're currently working though possible causes. Thanks to Markey Mark for putting him in contact.

WPMOT: Well yesterday, the pair of dickless cockbags (R6 & Fireblade) who followed me through Redhill & Reigate yesterday and then went past me at 50+ in the 30 past Reigate Rozzers station and proceeded to carve up other traffic, to "get ahead"... then only to be passed by me three times (not breaking the 30 & 40 & 50 limits) what a w***er "straightline heroes". Clearly being passed by a 15 year old Pan European & not being able to get anywherer near on the corners was that offensive that they had to "prove the point" by going past me at silly speeds in a straight line. Laughing

I hate this time of year because there are so many nobheads coming out of hibernation.
