Been riding since I was a kid, currently have a XR650 supermoto. Looking for something for the odd blat and to go away on a few times a year.

Looking at the new CB1000R, the KTM Superduke/990SM and a old shape Aprilia Tuono...

:welcome Jambo!

Personally I'm a huge fan of the latest SuperDuke and I was trying to get my hands on the R model, but they were all sold out before they'd even started building the damn things! Saw them racing at Silverstone BSB last year too and they sound/look awesome!

Can't say much nice about the old shape Tuono though. Like the RSV it was based on I think it's pretty ugly, especially compared to the newer models (applies to both Tuono and RSV), but that's my personal opinion.

I guess what you end up with could well be decided by what's available come time to get the bike eh? If the CB isn't on the road by then I suppose it's instantly crossed off until next time?

Anyway, good to have you here mate. Whatever bike you end up with you're always welcome :thumbup
