I’m considering selling my Gen 3 Duke 390 (9,500 km) and moving to a Tuono 457.
My issue is that I’m getting a bit bored of the single-cylinder experience and want to try a twin.

For those who’ve ridden both:
Is the Tuono 457 an upgrade or more of a sidegrade?
Does the twin feel noticeably better in real-world riding?
How do the handling and overall fun factor compare?
How has your Aprilia service/reliability experience been?
If you owned a well-maintained Duke 390, would you make the switch?
Looking for opinions from people who have spent time on both bikes.

I would love to hear your inputs.

I had a minor incident this weekend. A truck switched lanes while I was passing him. He clipped my exhaust protector. Ended up snapping the support the exhaust bolts on to. Can anyone help me with the part number?

So I got rear ended last weekend by a drunk driver. The damage was minimal. The tyre popped and the rim is bent out of shape. The service centre has inspected the bike and have told me there is no damage to the frame (phew). The availability of spare parts is abysmal in my country. The service centre is saying a minimum of 3-4 months for a new wheel. My question is that I have found the same RIM in the US and they ship to my home country (India). But will it fit my bike. It’s a 2026 Z900 base
