Beautiful bike. I was seriously considering a RS660 but at the time they were having big reliability issues. I think that is sorted now and watching you ride this beauty gets the itch going again. Cheers.

They are not sorted. My brand new just burnt 2 quarts or oil in its first 600 miles. I regret buying it.

That is a naughty boy bike I think it would definitely draw the attention of the Rozzers but it has got a nice bark to it and it was nice to see normal handlebars so that the elderly and infirmed like me could ride it without spending a week in bed afterwards 😁

Your mention of the outfit reminded me of the bloke I saw shopping in Tesco the other day, in old bike gear and dayglo jacket. Shopping with his wife.

@@TAYM Which takes me back - lad! I should hate sidecars, I suspect they are the reason my left eye is nearly redundant! We moved up to Birkenhead from Llanelli. Water Street near the famous ferry across the Mersey! Playing with other children, aged about 3, we used to go down to the factory, at the end of the street, and collected steel marbles in the road! The factory made them. I found a corker and turned round and was struck in my head above my left eye by a sidecar! 🙄 I was carried home by the rider and of course no talk of suing him instead I got a scolding! I could have damaged his sidecar! 🤣 Soon after I had a patch on my left eye and hospital visits putting the parrot in its cage! And four eyes at school! 🤣 BONUS being - if TAYM appears in his videos I look only with my left eye and, thank goodness, he’s out of focus! 🤣🤣🤣

Evening Mr TAYM. Now we’re talking. I really like these, not so much in the gory colours, but in subdued colours like this one. As you know, I like being naughty occasionally, and the Tuono 660 would definitely be one to think about, if it wasn’t for the price. Unfortunately, they are out of my reach, even a 2 year old one is just too much for me. Then there are the servicing costs, which I am guessing isn’t cheap, then insurance……..tyres…..😢 Enjoyed looking at something I like, but couldn’t own, thanks for that 😂

Nice review/rideout Taym. Good looking bike, reminds me of the Honda cbr 650r, can`t fault its looks, sounds earthy like it. Pricey though, 10k, the Honda can be had for 8.5 grand and its a 4 cyl. Horses for courses .

It's funny, just as you got off the bike, I knew it didn't have a center stand, my Café still doesn't. But I was just smoking a pipe and it didn't have a centerstand. I guess I like things to stand on their own too. And not lean!

Oooh, a proper naughty boy's bike, one with a bit of a reputation. I generally like black bikes but somehow this one doesn't quite " shine" or stand out like black red and white " factory" colours I'd have expected 🤔😳 Also I always thought the "factory" model was their top of the range, so I would have expected better than an 80's hand held games console in the dash. It did sound nice and angry and looks to have plenty of poke though I'd have expected the torque to horse power ratio to be a bit closer. A marvellous review all the same and it seemed to have fun factor, which is ultimately what naughty boy bikes are all about 👍😀

If Yamaha had let an Italian design team take charge in 2015 , this is what the MT07 would have looked like ... I know which I prefer !! I had the original Tuono 1000 in 2004 , an absolute beast and stunningly brutal looking for the time. It was faultlessly reliable as well but too tall for me which eventually led to me selling it .... wish I still had it!

I can assure you your mice did justice to the sound of the bike when you whipped past the white car 😂 sounded superb and I think you would struggle to improve its sound to be honest.

Would be interesting to see what you thought of the cheaper version of this bike, I bet it would also be very impressive. 😊

Well TAYMmy first thought is , it's a greyhound/Lurcher in liquorice with it's arched back I think on side view the fairing looks somehow disjointed from the bike a bit like the Fazor 1,000 kind of to far forward . Typical Italian flair to be sure a very neat exhaust to me it looks like a sports bike with higher bars kind of a highbred ,so Street triple or Tuono similar in price I think I no which one I would choose 😉👌👍

Better not let Betsy or Anni hear that. Must be time for a bex and a good lie down. These modern bikes missing their centre stand really irritates me. Luigi has gone to the shop to have one fitted today. I spent far too long cleaning & oiling Anni’s chain this afternoon. She has a booking for her centre stand fitment, December 18th.🙃.
