I mailed this guy a while ago as when I was reading through the PR crap about this bike it said that it's got 140BHP!!!

I asked what had been done to the engine to get this performance out of it and he said that 'I don't know, I just copied it off the PR letter, the engine is standard'.

I kind of chuckled out loud..... I would at least think that he knows what he is selling!

Nice looking bike though, not sure about the price......

Go to the web site and read the MCN road test of the bike, right at the bottom of the page. They really seem to like it, better than the RC51 ( SP-1 ). Here is the actual website | Mondial Motorcycle Information News Discussions |, I like it......alot, all 4 versions

someday i WILL own this bike....

apparently the engine is stock, they just have a special ecu and map, and the HP gains over the stock engine is minimal.

God I lust for this bike....

wouldnt it be refreshing to have an RC that you dont have the constant need to modify?

The new vincent black lightning with the RC engine in it will be right next to it in the stable in the future.....

Just thought I should add that.
