That looks cool.

How much work and what parts were required to loose the side panels?

Lots of work, spread over five years, requiring numerous Tuono parts, a fibreglass kit and some home-made brackets. As with everything, when you've done it once, it's much easier.

In the middle of a bit of a fiddle myself at the moment. Dont know how much of my plans I will pull off but I'm going to have a good go.

It started with me hitting a pheasant last year and having ridden around with it broken for the rest of the year trying to plan what to do. So fancy the proper half faired look and then stupidly bought a new shape mille swing arm and then researched the amount of work that will be involved with fitting it.

So decided to go the whole hog and transplant the mille rear end and falcuono the front end.

Lets see how long this one will take.

This is also my daily driver.

Starting from scratch, with all the parts you need at hand from the off, you can easily do the whole job in four days including making all the brackets.

If it's your daily ride, it might take a bit longer!

Just tring to amass the all the parts I might need now.

Still looking for the tuono infil panels for the front and the rear plastics from a mille.

Got the swingarm fitted and all the subframe stripped ready for the mille subframe.

Does anyone know the model changes for the mille as there seems to be quite a few variations on the rear plastics/

Ask around on the RSVR.net forum, there's a load of Mille owners on there, not many on here.
