    Well shit, did another thing....

    Said goodbye to the 18' Tuono yesterday and brought home this 24' Ultra Gold Factory Tuono. In absolute love with this paint scheme and will say I am keeping this bike forever although more garage mates will be added down the line. Picked up my seat and books from the dealer this morning and also picked up the NRC fender eliminator kit which I will be installing later today or tomorrow morning when it is not sauna temps in my garage (good ol' FL summer preview weather going on lately ). An Akrapovic slip on, Gabro UpMap and MRA dark screen will be added after the 600 mile break in period. I will say Aprilia has officially snagged me away from Yamaha. Sorry about the vague pics but was in a bit of a hurry after I left the dealer as I was late for an engagement but well here she is:

    Did the NRC fender eliminator kit later in the day when it cooled down a bit (getting rather toasty out here already) and it's not even the start . No, I'm not trying to hide the license plate from cops or anything, one was actually behind me on the way home from dinner and didn't pull me over so figured it's visible enough. Just glad that landing gear is gone, that crap was hideous

    Re: Well shit, did another thing....

    Not sure why the other pictures were deleted and or not show anymore but anyways, few more mods since I've gotten it. Added the Akrapovic CF slip on, Gabro UpMap flash map/tune, MRA black windscreen, Evotech radiator/oil cooler guards, Woodcraft GP shift mod and front signal delete plates (the new tune integrates the front signals into the DRL LED's). The tune transformed this bike, runs absolutely amazing, much cooler, the QS is much smoother and just an overall huge improvement and the new exhaust sounds deep and rumbly, not all raspy and ricey like people like them out here . Next final mods will be gold wheels, RC17 Brembo master with better brake pads (not sure which yet), full PPF and CF wrapping a few body trim pieces here and there but about it. In absolute love with this color scheme and the more little mods I do, the more it grows on me. This bike is staying with me forever. Here are a few pics, hope they stay up, again not sure why the ones I posted from before didn't stay

    Heard that man. This site hasn't allowed pics for a very long time. I used to use good old imageshack.us for linked pics.
    Congrats on the upgrades!

    The site hasn't allowed pics to be uploaded for a very long time. I mean like 10 years ago is when it kicked in.

    I didn't upload them directly from the actual interface but did an image link from somewhere else they're uploaded at. They last a few days and then get taken down, oh well. Not going to pay for a picture hosting site but anyways the mods have definitely changed the characteristics of the bike for the better, loving this thing.
