I love these.  It would be nice to have some extra cash right now.

I just creamed my pants. Holy crap. Gorgeous. Hmm.. tuition.. or new bike to replace the one I just wrecked.... It's seriously a tough call...

That's kinda cool...   I don't think I'd be able to ride it though.  Even the SVS killed my back.

It's odd or maybe I'm strange, I ridden the 750 for 200 miles with only stops for gas, while getting gas also got drinks.  With a 45 min stop halfway and my back was fine.  I always thought the supersports would be very uncomfortable but actually it's not.

BTW sweet bike

Eh...

Ehh...my obsession for the last 4 months...

The Tuono is nice...and, for some reason, everyone who has a chance to own one either completely hates them or will NEVER get rid of it.  Don't know why.  Personally I only like the Tuono R...the bike is bland and it needs all the special factory trickery to wiggle my berries...same thing with the Brutale.  I didn't like the Brutale at all, though, except for standing back and looking at it.  It's more of a pain in the ass to ride than the Senna...hurts my back more and it's not as fast.  I'm willing to sacrafice comfort or speed, not both.

The triumphs are pretty but they fall in the same catagory (to me) as the Brutale.

Out of all of them I'd prefer to Tuono...it's at least got the right engine.  Of bikes in general, the best naked bikes are the ones you make.  My TL is a total pimp...

Eh, I prefer the previous generation one to the new one. While the trick bitslike the USD forks and 1050cc engine are nice, the old one just looks better, IMO. They do need the gauges and headlamps relocated closer in, though. I've got a toss up between the Speed Triple and the Z1000 depending on what is available when I am looking to upgrade.

I ride with one of those. Guy has an aftermarket exhaust, too freaking loud.

I can't beleive that bike is so cheap, the tuono, around here about 7G's canadian will get you a semi used cbr

Ohhhh the Ecosse Heretic...  What an insane machine.

I was actually never a fan of the Speed Triple until the new one came out.  I LOVE the styling of the new one.  The street fighter "hooligan" look makes me want to make babies with it.  And seriously...seen one in white?  UNREAL.

All three of those bikes are the hotness.  The Brutale is sweet but they are so little, like all Italian bikes.
The Tuono would be my choice.  I hear, despite what I may have assumed, that the Aprillia's are bomb proof.  But I bet there is some arguement on that point.
The Speed Triple sounds really, really nice.  I love the black wheel on the SSSA, but the gauges are somewhat whacky looking to me.
The half fairing on the Tuono make it the choice for me. 
I can't believe that price.  That is a steal!

I'd still take Honda reliability over the bunch of 'em. 

Gee... and all these time I thought the ultimate naked bike is the GS500E....

I actually have a model of the brutale but that is only because I havent run across one of the tuono yet.
