Well, I sold my F4i last weekend for $5800, and monday night i picked up this RC51 for $5800. It's an 01 with 13k on the clock, but a ton of goodies.
I've been waiting for the rain to stop for any period of time so i could take pictures and post. I was only able to get these two, as it was way more important for me to go ride it around than it was to get pictures of it. Can't wait for the sun to come back out, i love this bike!

yea, i'm not the biggest fan of the yellow either. But the yellow overlay stickers look like a major bitch to peel off. Especially without damaging the originals underneath.

Whatever, it's an RC. They're supposed to be ugly. N00b

Nice pickup. Good to see you broke even on the deal.

 

Damn nice bike. . . except for. . . well you've already heard it.

 

Congratulations!!

Horrible s/n tho.

Should be slvrblckrdYELLOWrcc51

 

I'm REALLY glad to see that you got exactly what you wanted. ****, almost makes ME happy. Haha.

 

welcome to the darkside watch out for 1st, it's a doozy take it easy with the torque, takes a bit getting used to but once you are you won't want anything less. Kind've a double edged sword cause there's no way a 600 will make me happy and I'll be stuck on 1000's from now on

 

thanks Nihonjin to you too

Yea, 1st is definitely a little jump, and the bike starts to lurch alot below 20mph (indicated). But i can tell that the -1/+1 gearing helped alot. My friend had an 01 and absolutely hated riding it below 40mph.
I freakin love the torque. It's exactly what i want. I just wish the rain would go away.

I think most RC's look pretty good...without yellow

 

I don't know if it was miserable. Gotta realize the bike isn't exactly the best bike for around town. was designed for racing, so 1st gear is well.... tall

 

Hot bike.

 

sweet bike, but i agree with the yellow.

just a question, are you riding on Drunkwood Rd? lol.
