10p's worth -

I rode one a TNT for a week whilst my bike was in the shop.

I like the looks, but:

The motor is torquey but strangely uninspiring
The (unadjustable) forks are very soft
The location of the silencer means the fumes make you smell like a burnt out clutch

Spin

Since I posted this thread the looks of the bike have grown on me a little bit.
I still think its ugly compared to the Aprilla Tuono, but some of you like the looks which is a far comment.

Cancel that found much worse...

I like the exhaust pipe fram tubes. Do they hook up to an APU somewhere or are they just pillion feet heaters?
