perhaps they could use less confusing model names? what's the difference between the R and the CR? which one is the full fairing one?

CR = Cafe Racer, no fairing.

yeah, what he said.
It's funny, really. The differences between the two come down to some very slight dimensional changes and the plastic.
Yet somehow I felt kind of cramped on the CR but the R I rode next felt much more natural.
(coming from the last two+ years on a cruiser, take that as you will)

what bars were on the CR, stock the CR has a lower set of clip ones, so the reach would be longer

Not much street fighter in it either. The true definition of a street fighter is a highly modified bike. Geared of low end speed and built for a more upright seating position.

It's really just a naked sport.

too bad both of them are saddled with those horrid-looking radiator scoops.

I like the scoops.

Then again, I think the Tuono looks like complete shit:

Who the fuck designed that thing, Stevie Wonder?
