[csmutty]

Bumpity.

[Half Squid]

Couple of mods added, that I forgot to list...
Act fast as this may not be around too much longer, possible Deal going on this weekend if she doesn't sell. I would rather sell this and buy the bike I want then go the route of this other deal.

TRADE: I have a 2002 CBR954rr, 8600 miles, DB windscreen, D&D or yoshi exhaust, PCIII, cobin seat, rear cowl, harris grips, michelin PP tires, flapper and Hetv mod. cutsom undertail, carbon fiber fame sliders and swingarm sliders, CF bar ends, scotts steering damper, rim stripes and I know it is more comfortable than a RC.
Bike is in florida though . lemme know. Always wanted a RC.

[Half Squid]

Can somebody explain that?

GLWS

I say no on the trade as the riding position is the same, and I don't like in line 4's..... When you switch to a V-Twin you can't switch back easily. I do like the 954's just don't want one.

So it is still for sale, but may be traded this weekend. I am not 100% on it I want this trade, but considering it. I would rather sell it and buy my Super Duke back. Last chance to get a sweet RC51 for $5000 Firm!!!! Everything I have will go with the bike including the stock parts that are now modified Aftermarket goodies. You even get the Aftermarket relocating rear peg brackets for the passenger pegs.

thanks for the quick reply and good luck. (although I have to disagree on the riding position the RC that I road was WAY uncomfortable. to me anyways) GL

2001 RC51 with 22K. Don't let the mileage scare you, this is a HONDA!! It runs absolutely sound!

I'm not a big fan of Hondas but the RC51s, and fireblades are nice looking rides.

Good Luck With Sale ---- GLWS

[Half Squid]

SOLD!


I am driving up to VT to deliver and exchange the RC51 and get an Arilla Falco as mentioed in the thread, We discussed and came to an agreement we are both happy with!

Place your bets if you want on how long it will be before I get another RC51, but I think this is the last one.

Maybe

You'll like the Falco, good bike.
I had one and was pleased with it.
biggest complaint I had was with the stock rear shock.

[Half Squid]

The entire suspension needs a rebuild... ($)
The tires were shot, the rear tire is a 200 and 160 cm of it is flat like the tire is a block design. Makes turning a nightmare. (I have a set of brand new CT2's that will be mounted next week.)
Chain and sprockets don't look likes they have been lubed with anything but mud.
Gearing is way off, so new sprockets are needed anyways. I think I already have a 530 o-ring chain brand new for it?
Throttle has slack for about 1/16 of a turn and then the bike snaps at you.
First gear is very short. Shifting feels like it is ready at 4K RPM.
Needs a steering Dampner.
Not sure about how the bike sounds, if it's supposed to sound this way or if it needs a valve adjustment? Every bike make makes different sounds, could just be that and I am not used to it. I even noticed a difference between the two RC51's I had sounded slightly different.
I want to paint it black.

Right now the only thing I like is it is more comfortable to ride.

I am not giving high fives as of yet......

[mycirus]

You dont sound like a satisfied customer.

[TheIglu]

Shoulda gone for the ZRX mike.....

You dont sound like a satisfied customer.

sell it, it might be easier to move than than a rc?

[ssg]

Did you have a Falco?

[Ryno]

sounds like it hasn't been taken care of
First gear is normal, you've just gotten use to the crazy tall gearing on the RC
Hopefully with a little maint you'll be happy

[sandman]

Did you have a Falco?

no, his old super duke
