Those are sweet, wicked bikes. Were you able to find one licensed for the street or will it be your track toy?

They stick out around 65 HP. But they are very different to a 250 Ninja. I wouldn't recommend them for a beginner as they have an on/off powerband and are quite loose at the front end. Budget around $4000 if you can run a 2 stroke in your state?

Nice. I straddled an RS50 at the Long Beach Cycle World show. It looked pretty fun

Schweeeeet! They have a decked out track set up (carbon fiber everything) here at a dealer near by. Too bad that they are "track only" here in Cali.

Great idea to grab one now, I believe Aprilia discountinued or will discontinue those.

He's in england, hence it's road legal.

It's just the states where they got around to banning 2-strokes so more people could drive SUVs and destroy the environment more.
