    Why did you remove the stickers? That's like throwing away free HP!!!



    Nice new ride

    I've always loved the RC51. Too bad Honda abandoned it.

    Re: OK Here is the New Ride!

    Congrats and enjoy it. I had one and loved it. It's not the fastest thing on two wheels, but it's a blast to ride, super reliable and just a good all-around motorcycle. It really is too bad Honda let the RC51 go. Their decision to do that is what lead me to the Ducati. Enjoy it and take care of it. Love the sound of the gear driven cams on it...

    I disagree, TL1000 with two brothers! Even better than the Duc with the 2 bros.

    Sweet bike! RC-51 is definitely a keeper. Love the Jap Twins!!!
