    Well today my Repsol Blade was traded in for a 2020 (unregistered) Tuono V4 Factory.
    Had a 2021 base model ordered, but delivery was taking too long & I'm off to Spain in 2 weeks time & wanted a new bike for the trip.
    I have to say, the 14 Blade has been the best bike I have ever owned to this point. Reliable, powerful,comfortable & economical. Covered 25000klms in 2 years.
    Hope I don't regret the decision.

    First impressions of Tuono.............sound great with standard can. Looks good............loads of electronic gizmos. Only did the 250km trip home in mostly torrential rain & limited to 7k rps for break in. Apologies for crappy pics.

    Great choice….. I definitely concur about the 2014 blade model:D just did everything so well! 15k in two seasons and really enjoyed its versatility as a fast road bike, even big miles didn’t faze it. Good luck with the new Tuono
