I've seen videos of many 600s walk RCs on the straights and corners of a lot of tracks. so I figured if the Mille is faster than the rc and the 1125 is faster than the Mille then It should also be faster than the rc. I also see that a few people feel otherwise. I wonder how much if it is really substantial and how much of it is just loyalty to the almighty rc. hmmm

and another thing. I have seen hp figures for the Mille ofer the years and people are quoting sub 120hp for the Mille. I thought both bikes made similar power. over the years I keep seeing the numbers for the Mille go down and numbers for the rc go up. lol. I think people are quoting around 127 for the rc but isn't that at the crank?
I thought the RC had elevnty million and the mille 3?
