Just came home with 2002 RC51 SP2 with 17K miles. Been on my bucket list for years.

I have been riding for 20 yrs. This is hands down my most exciting and powerful bike I ever rode. Torque monster. Amazing sound!

Pros.
-The engine!
-The engine and the engine.
-Fuel injected.
-The LCD Speedo
-Overbuilt!
-Soul

Cons.
-The ride. Super stiff!
-The weight from being overbuilt.

What should I do to improve the bike? Where can I get an PDF file for the manual? Thanks in advance for any advice on preserving and improving this great bike.

Oh boy, I'm right in the same boat, almost. I just put down a non refundable deposit on a 2005 that's immaculate. It may be awhile until I can ride it because of an accident but it was also on my bikes to own bucket list.
