06450F,
the point seems to be that nobody would disagree that the
RC is dated in the sense iit is almost 10 years old, but you are clearly coming across as passive-agressive, belittling several peoples favorite all time bike by saying that is is not as fast as 9 year newer machinery knowing well that this is not the general motorcycle topic section, but a dedicated section for one bike. Just because you can state an obvious fact does not mean it does not have the impression of sarcasm, like if you said "I love the RC51 and cannot believe how great it rides for such an old design with so much less HP than my Kawasaki neon turd green 1000cc 4 cylinder squid mobile that I get to Starbuck's in under 10 seconds on." Oh, wait, did a fact I wrote sound less than flattering to a current/former owner of a Kawasaki who might really love it for what it is. You do understand.
