^ Don't waste your time canuck . I wish this thread would die but it's cold here so what the hell . No long standing member of this forum makes direct comparisons between the '51 and the current crop of SS's EXCEPT the OP , yet somehow we're all deluded and defensive .
I bought my RC new in 05 even though the faster GSXR1000 , R1 , and Ninja 10 were MUCH cheaper b/c I want and appreciate what is IMO a legendary race bike with amazing racing success . Yeah , the RC's a 10.3 second bike but SLOW b/c the Inlines are 9.8 second bikes
