Okay, I got to jump on your bandwagon too...
I say that same thing you said, but I will factor it by 10..In other words, the RC51 is 10 times better than what you say it is... How about that!!!!
My bike has a cool 39,000 miles. It has been my track weapon for the last 4 track days, my commuting machine, and it looks like a zillion. Last, but not least, the dam thing runs and feels better than brand new!! How about that, again!!!
Yeah, I know it is 5 year old technology, but it is has got a look(soul), a feel, and a sound like no other. It is so good, that I am tempting to by another one just like it.. And talk about trouble free running.. 39,000 miles, and they have been fast, hard, (no dogging) miles, and not a wimper from my 03 RC51..
Didn't mean to whore your thread, but this bike is the chit. Add Sato(which some people don't understand), and the dam thing is a dream bike!!
