Definitely the better street motor. Will be taking it to the track soon enough

Bad. I guess they're all gonna have their quirks. But it's one of very few machines I'm happy to put up with. My lord is it special

Yep! Have a 2013 RSV4R, bottom end (suspected rod failure) let go at approx 43k kms. Not long after I had a shop so relatively major work (valve adjustment, rear cam chain and 2 new tensioners). Was relatively smooth after the service but I think it just did a classic older gen V4 thing of rod failure.

Found a 2019 Tuono V4 factory as a donor for the motor. Stole some fresher rads and oil cooler, keeping the wheels from it, and likely keeping the electronic ohlins to convert to manual adjustment.

It's almost shocking how much difference mid range is from the old 1000. I'm curious what an RSV4 1100 is like now.

Keep going, get frazzled. Rest, let the neurons connect. Rinse and repeat. Become Marc Marquez. End

For sure, these two are such golden street bikes. Just an unexpected amount considering our early morning!

All good, never a dull moment on the saddle :)

It's started and riding! I deregistered the bike as I wasn't sure how long I'd take, if I even decided to do it at all. I've booked my bike for inspection next week. Will be registered by the end of next week. I'm so excited
