Picked up my new bikes today. and from the 2 bikes will come one super awesome bike!
I'M SO EXCITED!!!
99 RSV1000 Mille - Repairable writeoff - 18000 kms
AND
06 Tuono R with BLING!!! - stat writeoff, bought for the bling (lots of rizoma stuff, OZ racing wheels)! especially the wheels
The bike will be the T bike cause jules keeps telling me i say Tuono wrong so i give up...
Nice pick up Trav. Looks like cinderella will be going to the ball. If you want to unload some clutch and brake masters I have cash waiting.
:cool: Oblivious !!
get your lanky pommy eyes of my blings!!! :P
a great coincidence that i just found... the Mille actually has blue braided lines on the front... so it will match the rest of the bling off the Tuono.
MMMMMMMMMM wat a nice score....i nearly used a rsv swinga on the banbusa,you got some work ahead of you
ooooo.....what are you doing with the black side panels on the 06 ?
which bits? between the "tank" and the frame/seat/tail?
If you need any help mate was an Aprilia mechanic for some time.
"I call it a Camberwell carrot as I invented it in Camberwell and it looks alot like a carrot"
Cool. I'lll keep that in mind if i run into any hurdles.
nah, those wheels look broken
better send em up this way just to be safe
Rev the fucker!!!!!
how much ya pick the bike up for, if u dont mind telling?
Looking good trav what are the plans for the tuono
Glenn Eason drinks and smokes and lends his arse to other blokes
got the pair for 4.5k
Plans for the Tuono are to pilfer it for everything i need/want (bling, wheels, swingarm, bling, maybe calipers if i can find forks for them to fit, maybe some body work) then flog off the rest.
I may be interested in left overs mate can I call dibs on whatever you don't want

If the fork lowers are the same diameter,im sure it's possible to swap the ends of the forks over,if you want to use those calipers.quote:Originally posted by xa-mont

Serious motard guys do it to put radial calipers on their bikes.
I reckon this will be a nice build,starting with what you have there
Sorry,Just noticed started another topic elsewhere on changing the lowers.
This is gonna be fun!!!
Wheeled the bike back out of the shed to get some pictures of the damage before i get cracking on it.
First thing to do is get the front wheel off the Tuono straightened. Anyone know someone in the northern suburbs that does that?
Jules can you remember who the dude said?
Also i noticed when looking over it more tonight the subframe is a little tweeked off to the left. should be easy enough to fix though.
PICTURES!
