The RC is expensive because its worth it. Of all the bikes i've owned and ridden, the RC is by far my favourite. I kick myself in the ass every summer for selling it.

Then why the fuck would you sell it?

it took losing it to understand what i had...

when i had it I couldnt wait to go riding again, the bike was like an obsession i put on more miles faster on that bike then most people put on their dd cars, once I got the 1125 i all but stopped riding

, hell i put mon more miles on the RC in a day, a single 24 hour day then I did all of last year!

Exactly this... 10kyr in a 3 month summer, every summer. Sold the bike to get a cbr1000rr, put like 5000 km on it in two seasons. Got the harley new in 08, there still isnt 10k on it.

I thought I would love these other bikes, and I was wrong. I will have another RC51 next year if I can afford it.

Not the best bike to sit around in hot summer traffic though, is it?
