Some of my custom design work on my new Beauty/Beast, the 2012 Tuono V4 ...

  • Custom designed and laser cut carbon-fibre textured adhesive graphics using the Aprilia Lion theme across the tank, and the Italian tri-colour added to the belly-pan. Turns plain silver into artwork :)
  • Bar-end Rizoma mirrors (Black Spy-R) and R&G frame sliders/protectors.
  • Continuing to add little pieces here and there, including R&G axle pieces (just finished them barely an hour ago), aftermarket pickup spindles, and detailing with decals including Aprilia WSBK 2010 Gold Wreaths to both side panels. Also just fitted a custom made pair of carbon-aluminium twill heel guards. The photos will show where I'm up to ...
  • We are working on a unique, glistening silver carbon/aluminium twill rear seat cowling and possibly other carbon fibre pieces as well (an extended rear mud-guard, with integrated extended chain guard, in particular).
