what did she say?wannabe reporter fail....

Agree with Mr. McMartin!!! I have the '97 before they tuned down the motor's output. She's a bit scary to ride and if you don't ask her nicely, she will bite you. Putting stiffer springs up front and an Ohlins damper makes all the difference. Still love her to bits. Can't sell her. In a stoplight war, she'll eat the others for breakfast. Just respect her and she'll reward you. Not for newbies.

Crap sound quality couldn't understand what he's on about half the time could have been better thought out
-
People moaning about video quality and sound lol this was made 7 years ago!
-
the Aprilia SL Falco (yes I know its a RSV here) has fuel injection, a bulletproof Rotex engine, more modern and high-tech equipment than the japanese for about the same price tag
as weird as it may sound, it's the most "reasonable" choice here -
Best bike here? VTR1000F. Why? That sound is unmatched by the competitors! TL1000s are cool bikes and all, but firestorm is my cup of tea!
-
fire your sound guy!
-
Like most TL1000 owners, I still love mine, so what if they try to kill you now and then.. that's half the appeal !!
-
Aprilla for me underrated bike and I would have a tlr the look like a sRAD 600 scary daddy lol Honda to tame 4 me like the cbr RR there just a bit pussy hole 4 me
-
Is your sound engineer Helen Keller or something?
-
I can tell you right now all stock its the april... no contest
-
"...too much wrong with the TL..." ?! ..................PUSSY!
-
you forgot the GPZ 500S
-
Now,go make a video where we can hear what you say...
-
You know if you hold the microphone up to your mouth you'll get a lot better sound. All I hear is traffic.
-
Ok I have a tl1000s 01 plate and iv upgreaded to Busa brake Busa suspension and exhaust k&n filter and more to it more power as well black box so I would say mine is better. .:)
-
Time to lose the pony-tail Chad, the 80's was a looong time ago now!!
-
Didn't own the TL-S, but I did have a TL-R which I loved.. Very underestimated. But my favourite twin I owned was a 916 Strada, no surprises there!
-
I've had both an RSV Mille and a '97 TL1000s, from new. I still have the TLS.
The RSV was a thing of beauty and handles a better than the TL1000S but you had to be in the correct gear all the time, the TLS doesn't give a fig what gear you are in, you just twist and it pullllls.
The TL just has so much character I could never part with it.
