Both bike were fantastic to ride. The duc was immediately ride-able for me being similar to my R1, it took me a bit to get used to how to make the Tuono turn. I consider myself very lucky they let me ride them.

But I can appreciate that this Italian beauty will negotiate any twisties you'd throw at her with the appropriate ease.SonjaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389245948579828531noreply@blogger.com
