Had a gen 2 tuono for 11 years .. if you cant live with the low bars @Sam Vincent the Tuono is a great shout

[@yamark02]

Had my Gen 2 Factory 18 years. Had loads of bikes. But this I keep. Says it all.

[@SamVBikes]

It's definitely a special experience riding it! Bet you're glad you kept it especially with the prices of them slowly going back up

[@yamark02]

Mine won't with 90,000 miles on it. 😂. But it's worth more to me.

[@SamVBikes]

Ohh wow! Solid effort!! Haha I appreciate that! That's all that matters!

[@stoicthedog]

They really are that good! I bought an 03 Mille R on mint condition, 10 years ago for £2750. Last of the gen1 bikes with the radial brakes, 57mm tb's etc. Absolute bargain and my favourite bike I've ever owned. Other bikes come and go but the Mille has a home for life.

[@Patriiiiick]

There's so many of these secondhand for crazy cheap money. I sold my RSV4 a few years ago and regretted it ever since but i'm definitely considering a Mille as my next purchase.

[@SamVBikes]

Such an overlooked bike - becomes worth buying because one day they are going to go up!

[@MotoGoYo]

As we've got used to buying different new bikes, it sometimes feels new to ride an older bike. Also, in some ways, a lot of (not all) the changes to bikes in the last 15 years have been cosmetic or user-interface technology. Numb Knob on the tank is even worse in leathers...!

[@SamVBikes]

It was really refreshing riding a bike where it was so manual! Haha yeah that wasn't fun

[@Beemer_Steve]

Thanks for making me regret selling my Millie last year 😂

[@SamVBikes]

😂😂 get on Ebay quick before many more people see this vid

[@HW-kf7hi]

Sold an 04 Factory for £4k back in 2009 and they never really seemed to change price much in the 15yrs since!

[@SamVBikes]

I'd honestly expect it to be worth double that nowadays!

[@michaelmclarney1994]

Hi Sam, great upload and a lovely bike. You gave the price away as I was typing, I was going for £3995, working on him getting a bargain from a dealer. £3k is an absolute bargain! What a lot of bike for the money!

[@SamVBikes]

Thanks bud! You're the closest guess yet. Absolutely incredible piece of kit for very little money! (Well.. for a bike)

[@michaelmclarney1994]

@@SamVBikes amazing what you can get these days, an old bike that has been well looked after can be a great bargain! I went looking at Tuono's straight after! 😂

[@SamVBikes]

😂😂 you'll see what I went looking for in a few weeks time haha

[@michaelmclarney1994]

@@SamVBikes another bike purchase? If so you will be catching me up 😂

[@SamVBikes]

I may have got a little carried away 😂 can't take it with you!

[@rlw85]

I wonder if bikes have actually gotten any faster in the last 15 or so years. The bhp figures have gone up but the amount of electronics to control the power has increased

[@SamVBikes]

I'd love to put a new bike and an older one around a track with a good rider to see how close they are! Use every BHP of 140bhp odd.. or struggle with electronics to put 217bhp down

[@staudio]

I had a 2001, in red. Great bike.

[@SamVBikes]

Such a great thing

[@simonbeal2148]

almost bought a new one in 2004 great test ride but something about the dealer put me off so i ended up with another gixxer a 1000k4

[@SamVBikes]

Dealer networks for Aprilia are the main thing that put me off. Still not a huge amount better now!

[@philwoods2534]

but what did Dave think of the 1290?....

[@SamVBikes]

He spent quite a lot of time trying to convince himself he didn't need one after 😂

[@philwoods2534]

@@SamVBikes 🤣😂

[@variable8514]

I just got a 2007 Aprilia rsv1000r factory with 3000km. Bought it for 7.5k cad, is that allot?

[@SamVBikes]

No thats a great price!

[@Pauldh601]

Ap workshops have a really helpful aprillia Facebook page

[@SamVBikes]

Seem like a nice bunch too!

[@coboisarapatanas]

8k Completely wrong 😂 Lovely bike

[@SamVBikes]

Haha! That would have been my guess too

[@sc9443]

£1900, it's not a mille, 2004 on bikes are RSV1000R.

[@madanto2394]

Its the noise

[@SamVBikes]

Addictive isnt it

@@SamVBikes just laugh tears

[@taz473]

Nice but not as nice as a superadventure ❤

[@SamVBikes]

Haha! Nothing beats those but they can try 😂

[@marksmith8663]

3800k

[@SamVBikes]

Not a bad guess!

[@zedddddful]

Mr pedantic here It's not a mille he got a good deal there i paid 4.2k on my 06 tuono.

[@SamVBikes]

Not sure the difference. I know it's not the R model but it comes up as a RSV 1000 Mille when you put the reg in on reg checkers/insurance

[@zedddddful]

@@SamVBikes the gen 2 only came in a R or factory the factory had a bit more poke and ohlins suspension 👍

[@paulred158]

@@SamVBikes usually entered into the system by someone that didn't know. Technically that's not a "Mille".

[@HW-kf7hi]

​@@paulred158thinking the same thing. Technically only gen 1 called Mille. Gen 2 are just called R and Factory. Had a Factory back in the day and great fun.
