Where is my Tuono review?
Another great review Dan! Keep up the work my good man!
I had a 20' tuono factory V4. It was way too much for the road. The 660 makes alot more sense and should keep you out of jail.
yeah come to Switzerland and even a 125 can bring you to jail
Beautiful bike and great review as usual mate 👍🏻
Was waiting for your review.
The stock exhaust is so nicely integrated into the design, I feel like this is one case where I’d be hesitant to replace it purely for aesthetic reasons. Sure you could get some nice sounds out of a can swap but the cases I’ve seen just look so awkward IMO. Fantastic looking middleweight with high end electronics, love this new category of bike and it seems as more manufacturers are following suit!
I own this bike and thought about getting an aftermarket exhaust because you know, it's the thing we do on our motorcycles right away. BUT this stock setup looks so damn good and integrates with the bike nicely that I have no desire to switch until a nice undermount exhaust is made.
@@johnny_cash7588 I saw an under tail one available already, looks amazing. I think it was on AF1racing but I don’t recall for sure. But I’ve decided to stick with stock for now. It looks and sounds great to me.
@@xJae14x same here. I think I just saw it. It's by a company called Mivv. It looks nice but not sure if you'll need a custom map. I'm just gonna stick to stock. It has a unique sound.
@@johnny_cash7588 and hey, to Aprilia’s credit, the stock exhaust doesn’t sound too shabby at all 😉 I guess that’s just money saved for you to buy cool new gear you don’t need. I feel like that’s the story of any motorcyclist’s life, it’s all just an endless money pit of shiny new things 😅
@@xJae14x for sure, I feel Aprilia did a good job in making the bike Euro5 compliant without neutering the exhaust character so much like many other bikes these days. It’s a good stock setup for sure 👍
Nice video Dan! Look forward to the Tuono film.
The only thing i could think when watching this was - "This is a 'peoples' bike review"
Great points made, no crazy silly riding and told us just what we needed to hear!
Looking to purchase one of these and feel like i'd be comfortable doing it just from watching!
Great review! Amazing middle weight motorcycle!
Heck, I want one. Sold my RSV4 1000 a couple of years ago, didn't need the power, ride a lot less than I used to, but this thing looks amazing. I've owned three Aprilias, they were all great, especially the 250 two stroke.
I think this is one of the most cohesive reviews of this bike. Really love the inclusion of B-Roll shots when you are talking about the item to really highlight it.
Thanks Mark! Takes a bit of planning but sometimes I get it right! 😁
Thanks for the honest review.
Great review as always Dan. Looks great but not for me. You're the first reviewer who's mentioned twin exit exhaust, never knew that!
Great video showed you had a lot of fun on the bike which is very important to us out here considering the purchase of this bike. Mine is ordered I should receive it by March latest April from what I’m told a brand new 2022. The colors were not stated in the video are the one that you’re using Apex black, also lava red and acid gold. Looking forward to this bike can’t wait very excited every day until it comes. Going to actually filmed the und boxing of the Aprilia when it arrives at the dealership. Thanks again for the video awesome job
Enjoy the new bike! 👍
Great review mate, thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!
great review Dan! could I ask for one nitpicky question? could you make your watermark transparent? both my oled screen and I say thank you!
Nice bike and good review Dan. Carnt believe you get a quick shifter and blipper as standard! Bit pricy but it’s a bike with lots of fancy extras so it’s worth it. 👍🏻
Thanks Dan!
A very nice looking machine and good commentary Dan. The only problem i've got is the dealers are very sparse on
the ground in OZ and that's a pity because it's a desirable bike.
Same here. Closest dealer to me here in south Louisiana (US) is Houston.. a five hour drive.
Great review - thank you! Pillion seat fun fact - if you remove it, it reveals a luggage rack which is a pretty handy feature.
(Dunno whats going on with those that gave the 4 "thumbs down"... maybe they don't understand English or something!)
nice review for that pretty bike! i hope you can get to review the Kawasaki Z900! ride safe always! cheers! 😄
Lovely machine. Comfiest sportsbike out there.
You could make video on bike dashboard as well regarding features and etc
Looks awesome 👍
I’d really like an orange back wheel, the rest is perfect!
this bike design is beautiful 👍
Nice video, # Very useful, sensible and helpful review. , drive daily to work in the city and also the highway( Commuting) and sometimes during a weekend round of recreational so, do you think this is a good option? is beter than Street triple S/R? or Yamaha mt 09 can be a good alternative? please let me know
Any way great video,
Be safe
That exhaust tone is amazing! Great content. On a side note are you doing audio through a tapscan or something like that? Thanks in advance. keep up the good work. Ride safe!
No Tascan on this one. It's all recorded via the Gopro and media mod. Thanks!
Thanks Dan. Great review. Love the Aprillia’s design and black/orange works for me, and the bike is stunning.
Reckon this would be worth an alpine review against a similar bike and a gixxer
Blooming expensive over here - AUD$19k - AUD$21k plus license points.
Cheers
Ben
600 gixxer. To be specific
Styling cues from my 1995 RS250. Wouldnt change that for the world.
Such a sexy bike it just needs a few more horses. The insta footage is bloody amazeballs cut in.
With 130 hp, this would be awesome. I guess that will be the Yamaha R9.
Beautiful bike
Nice one bro 👌
Cracking review as always Dan ! Not happy mind , i was so close to pulling the trigger on a 2021 MT09 sp last week but I’ve always liked the look of these but was worried they simply wouldn’t be enough of a jump up from my 2015 CBR 650F ! But you looked like you were having ample fun there ? Now im back to square one 🙈
Haha, yeah it surprised me to be fair. Definitely more than enough power for any kind of fun. Good luck with your choice! 😜👍
Mate I know your suffering - whenever I've been on the market for a bike it has been a struggle to decide between the 50 I'd buy xD
The RS660 isn't a step up at all from the CBR650, it's got no virtually no more power and is a grumpy parallel twin instead of a lovely smooth 4. I'd take the Honda any day.
The MT09 on the other hand is a really fun bike. There's no comparison with the RS660 really. The 09 has a fantastic, bigger, 3 cylinder engine with a good chunk more power. It sounds and goes better. I would get the Yamaha and not think twice about missing out on a small, not very powerful, parallel twin.
@@MyMednas yes 👍
I’ve got a 2021 MT09 and the bike is absolutely fantastic it’s the most fun I’ve ever had on a road bike. The torque is instant and addictive and compared to the 650f it’ll blow your mind. Plus the electronics, shifter and blipper are really good 👍🏻
Hey Dan!
Nice review man, as always :D
Wish you had said the bike is horrible though... because I really want one but is not a sensible purchase for me: I want something a bit more apt for travelling xD
Have you ridden the Supersport from Ducati? If so, how does it compare?
I understand the SS is RELATIVELY ok/compy for long distances, but the RS660 is a bit more hardcore on the sitting triangle?
Cheers!
Enjoyed the review was wondering if you experience a flat spot in the mid range of the power band which is often talked about on review's on US test rides.
I certainly didn't feel it. It had a nice boost at 7k rpm. Thanks for watching! 👍
Thanks for replying to my question,you've got another subscriber!
Nice review,Dan!
Must say the looks are a key thing and they’re great but I’m reluctant to buy one because 2 of my mates have this bike and both already had their engine replaced because it blew up! Guessing there is some problem with that, sadly... 😕
The engines are shite ,they all blow up.
You should also testdrive a V4 factory Tuono for the fun of it… ☺️👍 would be a nice comparison because I don’t see any around on YT…
Hopefully soon or maybe in the New Year. Thanks! 👌
Hi Dan, will you review the Tuono 660 in the future? Thanks for the vids.
I sure will. Actually rode it months ago!
Great video thank you!! I'm 5'8... do you think I will have issue touching the ground when I stop? I'm thinking of buying it but I think I will end up on the balls of my feet (tiptoe)... do you think it's going to be an issue? Thanks!
Hi
I just bought a 2022 rs660. I noticed the front brake lever takes around 1-1.5cm before it activates the brake, which is completely different to my previous honda cbr650 which started to brake as soon as you pulled the lever in, did your rs660 do this for you also?
Really enjoyed your test ride Dan. How does it compare to the Yamaha MT-07 seeing as it too has a 270 crank?
I've not ridden the new one but I'd imagine it's better in a lot of ways. The new R7 is probably a closer rival.
Rear Brake, how many miles are on it? Bought a 390 Duke brand new and the rear brakes were useless, after 3k miles. They do their job.
Hope I can find one of these brand new ASAP.
Lovely bike but marred by the price, I'd be happy with the R7
@EnglishBikerDan You sir rode both RS660 and CBR650R, can u tell me which one offers more room for a tall person? which one "feels" more spacious? Thanks for cool reviews!
Unfortunately I'm not tall, so I can't really comment. I found the RS more comfortable though. Thanks for watching!
How can you compare RS660 to Z650 in terms of power?
Great review I'm hoping they still make this bike come 2023 currently saving up for on but won't have the amount until then 😭
Yeah, and they'll have a fancy Factory version next year!
@@Englishbikerdan so looks like it'll be continued into 2023, hopefully.
@@Englishbikerdan I also hear rumours about ktm bringing out a rc8 obviously not as powerful to compete with the rs660 so will be interesting to see
I would love to do a back to back on this vs R7
Yammienoob done it - R7 less comfortable due R6 ergos, 74hp v 100hp... also seen a comparison review between this and the Ducati Supersport which is worth watching (can't remember the channel sorry)
Good video. Got her since 6 months in the same colour...just changed the red seat by the black comfy one...not that the red is not comfy but like a black seat better. You missed to present which I think is a real good and important thing, the integrated GPS. In fact I ordered the bike with some extras like USB charging port but most important the blue tooth module. With that you just download the Aprilia app onto your phone and which has kind of a google map navigation feature which you can actually transfer onto your dashboard. Pretty cool function once you figured out how their menue works. As a tip, your phone needs to grant constant tracking info...which i do not like but just turn it on when needed plus once phone n bike connected and you set your destination on the phone you need to push down the right menue switch on the left handle bar for about 5 sec to make it appear on the dash board. As per the rear brake I noticed the same as useless....till I actually started to perform a proper bleeding. There was so much air coming out of it that I think Aprilia do miss this task prior bike delivery. Since then it works great ! To sum up...best bike I ever had for that price...needs some time to get and understand their dash board logic but once near to it, and am sure I still did not figure out all possibilities, a great fun bike to have. Do for sure not want to miss it.
great info thanks...was thinking of getting one cause once i saw it live i wanted it bad but i saw some bad reviews regarding engine problems and am unsure now
@@SorMaflaria hey buddy. They are all fixed meanwhile and no issues anymore. Honestly, am 46 and had a shit load of different bikes but can say that this one is the most fun. Not a single point to moan and best value I got for the money…go for it and am sure you won’t regret
@@MrLockwire thanks i ll be 50 next october and i really wish to give it to myself as a birthday present
@@SorMaflaria go for it mate and as said before you won’t regret and no am not paid by Aprilia 😂
Pity about the seat... the red seat is part of the charm of the bike. It connects with the red on the tank and on the front wheel.
Hey EBD what gloves are you wearing in this video? Awesome content, so jealous you got to ride this motorcycle!
Rukka Rytmi I believe, all items are in the description though. 👍
@@Englishbikerdan right on I checked the description, they have an Oxford glove listed. Appreciate the response and content!
If that's what's listed then it'll be correct. Oxford Brisbane gloves. 👍
Really wanted to get this, but it was too expensive for me, so I got the Honda CB650R instead. Would still like one someday, but it seems too similar to the CB650R in terms of power and ride quality. The ABS and IMU would certainly be nice, though.
I felt ride wise they are quite different. Nothing wrong with the CB650R though.
the cbr feels much more tame to me. Its a good city and all around bike tho
Can I have a rear wheel that matches the front?
How is the power compared to your CB650R?
Thanks for the cracking review, I wish I'd found your channel sooner!
How would you say it stacks up against the Ducati Panigale V2? Here in Australia they are pretty close in price (AU$20.5k vs AU$23k). V2 obviously has way more torque and power (at least in third gear up, since Ducati likes to nanny you these days), but it seems like a much less practical bike (worse fuel range, no fuel gauge, no cruise control, no cornering lights, plus the heat issue). On paper the V2 has better suspension, but it is a lot firmer so it seems more track orientated. I'm expecting resale to be much better on the V2 as well.
I think the RS660 is a better looking bike personally, but most people would likely disagree - most people seem to really love the Panigale looks, but they seem a bit plain to me.
They aren't in the same league.
100 hp vs 150 hp. I'd have a V2 in a heartbeat.
The V2 is about £5,000 more here in the UK. Panigale is a much more powerful machine too. Thanks for watching! 👍
@@MyMednas The V2 is more powerful but that doesn't matter that much to me. I have a GSX750F and I've rarely used all of its 90ish hp so I doubt I would make use of the extra that the V2 brings very often.
Plus given that you can only get the full 150Hp at 9k in third gear means you don't get to use all of it until you are doing 130 mph plus.
I'm just not convinced that the power I would use once a month is worth the scorching and other annoyances that I'll get almost daily. Or maybe I just don't know what I'm missing out on?
@Agouti I'm pretty much in same boat. Live in Sydney, and have been tossing up between both bikes. Love the v2 look but also love the rs660.
I personally woukd be doing a lot of riding in the week as well as weekends, and I want to start doing track days (never done one yet) maybe once every 2-3months. So for me comfortability is a big thing. And yes even though v2 has more hp like you said not usable when doing lower rpm stuff, and also gets very hot.
With the price even though they are close you also have to take in to consideration the service costs (much higher on ducati) and costs for parts if you ever want to mod it also much higher.
Because of this I'm going for the rs660 which they have brought down in price for 21 year run out from $20,530 aus to $18,690 so just under $2k savings
Gotta see how you compare the Tuono riding position & comfort with the RS. Still quite canted forward. Aprilia are doing deals on the Tuono atm (£500 off), which pays for a quickshifter & part way towards the IMU it doesn't get as standard. Usual top notch review, Dan.
Cheers Hugh. Yes some great deals around!
Ha nice, Just see your in Camberley area , not far from me!
Cheers, yeah I used to be but I've moved away from the ratrace a bit!
What do you prefer, RS660 or 1000SX?
The front body work near visor was bent why was that?
Great review Dan, you didn’t happen to run a red light at 13:45 did you?
No sir, that light is for the traffic on the road I turned onto.
@@Englishbikerdan Ah, of course! I love watching your reviews, I’m always amazed at how much detail about the bike you can recall on the ride.
muy increíble
never understood the reason for clip ons?
I enjoyed to test ride this machine. For a Sport bike style, I found it reliable. There was enough poke from the Aprillia engine in order to handle the bike in a more aggressive riding.
Takeovers on cars and general traffic it behaves efficiently. No need for more power on the road to go well in a fast and safe manner. The bike is beautiful and full of electronic aids for the rider, very appealing for the bike thief’s, If we buy one of these, you better be paying attention where to park it. The rear breaks are not at the general level of the bike . Didn’t like the feeling and the sound it makes, doesn’t feels like quality material. Hated the mirrors vibration . That’s something quite annoying on a road bike. I’m definitely waiting to test the Yamaha R7.
Currently I have a Yamaha XSR900 Abarth.
The torque of that Cp3 engine is something that fills my cup! But I’m getting a bit tired of the extreme sporty position of that retro sports kit it wears and instead I found the sport position on this Aprillia 660 RS very comfortable for a sports bike.
Thanks for the video! (Didn’t know if you already have ridden the R7. I’m looking to know more about it, if you do, please be so kind to share your impressions here in the channel with us) 🙏🏼
Thanks, I'm going to try to get a demo on an R7 soon. Ride safe. 👍
I have rs 660 apex black ang i just changed the rear brakepads and braided hose on the front and rear brake. Then bar end mirrors, and now i just ordered a full mivv exhaust underbelly. Lets see how it goes. 😊
@@kevin.Rsv4 Yes! Well done! Send us a pic if you can👍🏻
If you can't get enough of that engine wait until you try the 1100 Tuono if you can get your hands on one
I can't wait! Probably next year now tbh.
Beautiful bike except for the big A on the cowling. That could have been a better design or none at all.
where can i get that aprilia key chain?
You need to review the Tuono 1100. 🙂
It's coming. 😊
This is fit.
It has less power than I expected, which is interesting. This actually looks like a more "friendly" sportsbike and possibly more reasonable for road use.
With only 659cc twin cylinder to play with, 100bhp is a pretty fat number actually.
@@rafiqrosli3967 Yes, I suppose you're right. I was trying to compare it to the KTM 790 in my head and that only makes around 110hp so it's actually quite a respectable number in that regard.
I just found it a little surprising for a modern sportsbike, considering manufacturers are trying to push higher and higher numbers each year.
Dan, any plans for a review on the new Yamaha R7? 😊
It's doubtful as Yamaha don't want to lend bikes to most RUclipsrs.
@@Englishbikerdan What a shame!
another amazing review, im 6'1" and have a inseam areound 33", how do you think the ergos will fit me ? i have sat on the bike breifly and it felt okay, im unable to test ride as im on a a2 license. keep up the good work
I’m 6’ 180lbs, 32” inseam and the bike fits me great. It’s so comfortable IMO
@@xJae14x perfect, how u liking the bike ?
@@SuperGamingcarrot loving it, I’m not a track guy so I can’t comment on that. But ergos are sporty without being wrist or back breaking. Power is perfect for the street. Has a great surge over 8k rpm or so that makes it very fun. And it really is just a beautiful bike, anytime I park it somewhere I get at least one question or comment on it.
How about a cbr650 as an alternative
Apart from the cringey "thats what she said comments", enjoyed the review. I love this bike. I think if you take off the back seat top it has a luggage rack you can stick a box on as well. Something like that anyway.
As Michael Scott would say, how dare you!
Hmm is Aprilia has the option to remove the orange seats and decal designation?
You can purchase a black seat from Aprilia. Decals are standard unless you purchase the acid good colour
This or a cbr650r ? First bike for gf. Thanks 🤟
1000th like ,)
Great review - this or the cbr650r for a mature beginner rider?
I am a mature rider who has finally just passed my test and climbed onto a CBR650R after having a Honda NSR 125 as a 20 year old. I couldn’t afford the Aprillia , but I was struck by the Honda’s looks, specifically the way it looks a lot like a Fireblade. The engine is very smooth and docile, and you really need to wind the revs up to get some urgency, but then it feels like it could just keep going, and the smoothness of the in-line 4 engine is to me, almost a safety feature, as you aren’t going to suddenly unleash a snap of acceleration. It’s a really comfortable bike that manages to look sportier than it actually is. Brakes are not fancy Brembo, but Nissin, but they are totally dependable. Rear tyre is pleasingly chunky and the CBR is just the right size. It is a heavy bike for sure, but again that gives a feeling of solidity.I would recommend the CBR as a first bike. When I’m ready to trade up I don’t think I will have difficulty finding a buyer. I bought a 2019 for £5700 but for £1200 more you can get an almost brand new bike. Having previously had a Honda they appear bullit proof.
@@TheNiceytube this is super helpful Nick. I'm in my 30s and having just passed my CBT a few weeks ago, I'm getting some seat time in a 125 from a local hire shop. Did you find moving to a middleweight that the bike was easier to ride than a 125?
Don't go fast on your Honda, brakes are not effective at above 100kph.
@@DC-vo1pj Cheers David. I did a 5 day course that put us on 125’s for 3 days and onto Kawasaki z650’s for the last two leading into the test on the same bike. I think the naked z650’s were restricted as they seemed a bit gutless, but they were comfortable and a doddle to ride. After 3 days pottering on a 125 it was a relief to get on the bigger bike, which felt more planted. When you’re ready for that Mod 1 just practice that u turn manoeuvre over and over on repeat, and have your right foot just 4% on that rear brake.
I bought the CB650R in my 40's, although I'm not that mature! 😂 They Honda is less complex and will just be a solid bike no matter what. The Aprilia is more fun to ride but I've heard there might be some issues with electronics reliability.
Brembos, but not latest and greatest? They are overkill for a bike that is this light and puts out only 100hp. these m4.3s are million times better than the crappy nissin you get on cbr650.
Good point
The stock Brembos feel GREAT on the Rs660
Wait so 659cc engines are little now??
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
What a machine. I want.
Me too! Well, I want the Tuono 660!
How tall are you
They feel big for 660"s...the gear box is not what i call slick.. i felt the heat from the engine quick and thats on a 20dg day.....might make a nice track day for its class for the larger rider
I rode in 95 degree weather recently and the heat was noticeable at stop lights but wasn’t an issue at all.
Stuck between choosing this and the new Honda CBR650R.. Recommendations would be appreciated.
Ive ridden the honda on track, it was much better than i assumed it would be.
The aprilia is lighter and sexier, but has poor dealer network and atrocious parts availability etc.
Rs 660 Parallel twin.
Cbr650 inline 4.
Period.!
Honda for reliability. You'll wake up and know it'll work. Not so much for the Aprillia. What did you end up choosing?
@@silent_fluo6917 Lol well as it goes actually ended up getting the 2022 Z650. I test rode the Aprilia and didn't enjoy the riding position apart from that bike was good, so then ended up test riding the Kawasaki and it surprised me. Had plenty of torque low down (more than the Aprilia), its light and it was considerably cheaper than the Aprilia . I think for me it was the right choice in the end.
Like that you mention the CBR650R. That seems to be the closest bike to what this bike competes Against but let’s be honest, the sportier, more aggressive RS 660 toes the line to a Supersport much closer. This is what excites me the most. I personally believe the RS 660 is the beginning of a new category of middleweight sportbikes. I think there’s an argument to be made that it really is the first of a new one to be followed by brands like Yamaha with their supposedly incoming R9 for example.
Ktm is working on a RC990, This bike will go bye bye 👋🏾 once it comes out… I’d still get a Yamaha R9 whenever they come out 👌🏾
@@NudaMan hmm. Interesting. Hadn’t even heard about the 990 but this bike is probably. Not comparable to the other 2. The RS 660 seems like a sensible version of a super sport for touring and sporty riding while the 990 Seems like they’re going after Ducati and the V2 type level of performance and racey type setup for the street. So ultimately not super comparable.
I keep reading on the internet that Aprilia bikes don't score high in terms of reliability and ease of maintenance. Can someone say something about that?
I am torn between getting this or the Yamaha R7, i really want to buy RS660 but i find all of the colour options hideous why can' they make it in blue or at the very least not have red paintings all over that beautiful black colour, RS660 is also 6k expensive here in Australia, wish Yamaha could have made R7 around 100hp
@Billy Boy i am worried about how long will the wrapping last and the quality of it, plus rs660 is $20000 here in Aus $3000 more and I can get a panigale V2 makes no sense bro R7 however is 14k
The R7 should have made 100 HP, there was no excuse other than cost cutting.
Which did you prefer the RS or the Tuono?
Tuono for me. A little more comfort at my age is nice! :D
A bit pedantic, but I don’t like that orange seat, or the big lettering. It seems lighter, quicker and packs way more features in than my CBR650R, but it’s quite expensive new..
Its also quite alot better then the cbr650r
@@BlackS1000rr not reliability wise for sure
@@Croth4r wel no I did have some issues with mine, but it rides fantastic
20hp more and it would be a very tempting bike.
This is why I constantly tell people to stop obsessing over spec sheet numbers. Ride one and see how it feels.
Gimme that engine in a Pegaso Strada-like bike pls. Kkthnx.
They have a bike coming out called the Tuareg. Might be your cup of tea as it has this engine. 👍
@@Englishbikerdan Oh yeah that's true, I've heard that name thrown around. Good call. The Triumph version of that is looking fine tho too, right?
Tiger 660 does indeed look fine but it's a pure road based machine.
@@Englishbikerdan So is (was) the Pegaso Strada I mentined. That's what I want!
@@dbauernf Ah cool! Should be an interesting bike!
Top pro
Tuono 660 a hooligan and look better🔥🔥🤙
Is it good for touring?
Sadly I didn't do any touring in my week with the bike. I'd say it's ok but for me I'd prefer the Tuono.
👍👍👍👍👍
I prefer the icons like a ZX7R only blipper I'd like to have
That would feel like a heavy sports tourer in comparison but we like what we like! 👍
@@Englishbikerdan you have driven both in comparison?
@@michiroom1526 Yes, I've owned a couple of ZX7R's. A 1996 P1 and a 1998 P3. By todays standards they are heavy and slow. BUT, I still love them for what they are.
Amazing bike that I’d love to own, however I feel I’m in the minority when I say I’m just not a fan of Aprilia’s styling/livery choices. For me, the r7 and new ninja 650 have a much more exiting and mean look to them.
How tall are you??
5 foot 7 ish.
why your speed is non-metric? why do you use an Imperial speed?
Because we use non-metric distances.
@@Englishbikerdan ok sorry I didnt know. Btw great video mate!
@@Apopheros No worries at all, and thank you! :)
may I ask how tall are you Dan ?
sorry Dan, have just seen the 5 7.
Tall isn't the word I'd use. 😁
My gawd, thats a huge billboard for a license plate. Come to USA...
On a windy day though it gives us free air brakes! :D
thats one big ass plate number
