Default Interested in 2004 Tuono

Seriously considering a low mileage Aprilia Touono. Has upgraded titanium exhaust and other goodies. $5000 is the price. I think it is a good price given the condition. My research shows a 4.8 gallon tank. What would be the expected fuel mileage with conservative riding style? I do day rides in remote areas and need 150-160 range between fill ups. Also, does the 2004 model have the complex anti-theft electronics of the new models, i.e. key dedicated key recognition etc.? Any other comments re. reliability, etc. would be appreciated. Currently have a Honda CBR 954 which I love, wonderful performance, and fairly comfortable for a full on sport bike. Alas my 68 year old back is needing a more upright position the Tuono seems like a great sport bike ride with upright ergos.

just ran across this query--I have an 04 Tuono for sale in the Seattle area. I love it--but need to lighten the load and move on to something different.

to answer your questions, my experience is that 150 miles is a stretch. I can usually get 130 without worry, but if I am riding hard, it comes down a bit. I have an Akro can and a chip-set by Factory Pro (done at FP on their dyno).

Also, there are no fancy anti-theft devices on this year. Obviously it is EFI, but overall a straight forward design.

the bike is truly a great machine and if you go for it, you will not be disappointed!

Better still 200-250 displacement, through the rover, also cast. Mechanical performance should be stable, can trust, trust. Domestic car quality to have imported tension, but when it comes to the police and the problem of pain, cough, forever.
