    So chap, I am being tempted to move to the dark side and swap my blade for a tuono 1100RR or Factory?
    I went out this morning on my blade and love it.... but after about an hour I have pains in my hips, wrists and numb / pin and needles in my feet so the time has come to stop suffering and enjoy riding. I used to have a tuono and they are great and the new one is fantastic.
    But to those who own either the 1100 or factory, which and why? There is £2k between them, basically for ohlins all round, superpole paint job and rsv4 rear end..... is it worth it?
    And if 1100 to go for grey or blue?

    Could always get raised clipons and lowered legs for the blade!

    If you change and have the money I'd go for the factory model

    So.... I decieded it had to be factory.... but then thought I am going to stick with my blade a bit longer as its awesome and see if I can sort out this numb feet / sore hip thing.... if anyone has any thoughts.... my start a new thread. But the good news is I am keeping my blade which makes me happy!

    I like the look of the Tuono but I keep hearing about a few reliability issues and in particular a hot starting problem. Puts me off a bit to be honest. My 2013 Blade hasn't missed a beat other than a knackered battery.
