I own both. The RC is super stable and also requires more input to turn. The 750 is so nimble you can easily over do it. It is very very fast and its weight is part of why its so fast and nimble. Acceleration is nice when kept above 6k. It gets on the pipe near 8500 til redline.

Now I am not sure if you knew the foot pegs and shifter are adjustable. It has a 2 trip Odo's and a reserve odo. Tacometer is easy to read at speed. This thing has a shift light for petes sake. The signals are integrated and the plate/fender is a few bolts and poof gone. Even the stock exhaust isn't bad. All cool

Those foot pegs need to go. Everytime I set up the peg rolled up. Satos are on now. The suspension will work for the street but the shock is at its limits at 195#. So yes you need to replace the spring at least. The front feels vague and I really think the lack of feed back is the valving. So plan on a cartridge kit. I think the springs may be close but they are a tad soft ( might be progressive ). The tires suck at any pressure below 35 rear and 36 front. This could be part or due to the vague front feedback. This suks because the bike carves. It would be better if I could feel more. It also gets hot. Easily 220 but cools fast.
