You need to go find this Mag and buy it! I bought one and had to drive ALL over to find a second for Stunna! It is worth it, ten page spread of card core RC51 PORN!

I bought it two days ago in Borders in DC. Great article, I wonder how the guy still has one of Colin's SP-2 bikes. I would thought HRC would not allow that. Look at the airbox though, its not using the tank at all.

I got the last Ride magazine at lunch with the RC on the cover. Its 9.75. First person to send me a PM with an address gets it for that plus shipping. I'll know that total cost once I get an address. Sorry they only had one left.

Go to Barnes & Noble, they should have it there. I was in there on my day off last week and saw the cover & was wondering why there would be an RC on the cover of a bike magazine in 2007 & was pleasantly surprised by the 10 page spread. Nice comparison between road & race bikes, some development & race history as well.

over weight and underpowered, for sure. a beautiful piece of Honda history, craftsmanship and dedications. you bet. since they stopped making them, I give it 10 years, plus or minus and it will be the collector bike to have
