OMG what a matchup.  It's Duke-North Carolina.  It's Ohio State-Michigan.  It's USC-UCLA.

It's lightweight overpowered Italian head-banging lunacy versus slightly more restrained, slightly more sensible German head banging lunacy.

Despite my Germanic roots, that tall dark Italian woman has me firmly by the hormones.  I'm voting for the T.

I got to finally try on a Tuono at the Chicago IMS and was disappointed at how cramped it felt. I'm all about light weight, but it's got to be comfortable too. I went with the R12S on this one, although I prefer a Monster to either one.

Toddrod must be stopped!  He's got more bumps than the parking lot at University Village!
 Lol



Nice to see some Tuono fans out there.  More people who like fun.  It gives me hope.
