SUMMARY

On offer from the AP Workshop Collection, this limited-edition (#89/220) naked superbike was developed for a one-make race series and featured OZ lightweight forged wheels, Brembo radial calipers, Ohlins suspension and were supplied with a 'race kit'.

DESCRIPTION

  • Unveiled in 2001 at the Bologna Motor Show, the Tuono (Italian for “thunder“) was introduced as a naked sibling to the impressive RSV Mille
  • The standard Tuono was a great bike in its own right but the, only-for-2003, Tuono Racing (also known as the Tuono R Limited) took it to the next level with high-end components including OZ lightweight forged wheels, Brembo radial calipers, and Ohlins suspension (forks, steering damper, and shocks)
  • Developed for a one-make race series with approximately 220 built in total, this example being Number #89/220
  • The first run of the Tuono Racing bikes in 2003 were supplied with a race kit that comprised all the parts needed to take to the track, carbon nose fairing, carbon belly pan/catch tray, exhaust, ECU chip, lock wire bolts and other special parts. Only the 2003 bikes were supplied with these parts
  • Full carbon bodywork and special livery make this a very eye catching limited-edition motorcycle
  • Confirmed in running condition, the bike is beautifully presented in super original condition and complete with its full 'race kit'
  • Supplied with its current V5C, handbook and all paperwork from the factory along with some service history and MOT/tax information
