RFM Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 They're at the shop.. getting their Italian heaps wrenched.They still pull the ladies, so it's all good... What's that? 36,000 miles and the valves haven't needed adjusted yet? Well fancy that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wantahertzdonut Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I actually rode mine to work yesterday so I could take the long way home through the metroparks, and had a wonderful ride. It was the first time I've had it out in over a month. My girlfriend likes to ride with me and my Tuono just isn't too passenger friendly, so my SV gets most of the miles.

RFM Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Looks like you need a Tig or Blue Flame on that beauty though. Make a Duc with Termis sound neutered.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make a Duc with Termis sound neutered....how long have you had your falco? does it backfire at all? mine does, but I've just gotten used to it, don't know what to do about it.

RFM Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 No backfiring at all. Do you have an aftermarket pipe on it? Did you put on a new EPROM to accomondate the change in fueling? PC III? A tune up might be in order too. Valvetrain is easy to check after a bit of disassembly, but has never been an issue for me. Always in tolerance. It's not part of the charm of the bike- it can be worked through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE53ALI Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I get a backfire when the tach falls through 4,000. all my lights flicker when I'm on the brake or the signal on... lil bugs here or there.... might let ducRx take a look for me on the backfiring and the flickering.

Mine had a lot of corrosion in a harness assembly that sapped a lot of power. Took the harness out and hard wired the wires. No more voltage issues.

Coyote Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 ...Sold that and picked this up 2 weeks agoNice . I was looking to pick up one of these^^ a couple years ago. When it first came out, I wasn't too impressed with the color scheme, but then it really grew on me. Ended up getting a really good deal on a Tuono Factory instead (whose colors still don't particularly excite me--but it's way comfy).

He won't budge on the price and is kind of an asshole when you bring him logical points of why nobody is gonna pay $7500 even for a limited edition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFM Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I'll be the first to say it: the resale of pre 2010 Aprilias are low. I picked mine up under $4,000. But with the reorganization, and Piaggio as the parent company now- they're solid. I'm on my second, and there will be a V4 third bike coming up...
