Hey guys, need some help,

according to wikipedia, (second last para)


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_RC51


its mentioned that there are 6 limited edition RC51's in 2003, with yellow and chrome enkei rims.

Is it true? Or did they release normal models with these specific rims straight outta the factory?

If anyone has any info, on anythin related to this, plz post!


Thanks in advance

- '00 RC51 SP1

It was the first and only time I've heard mention of it.
I do not know if it is true or an urban legend.

Its urban legend. From everything I've read Honda denies these 6 limited editions. Bad thing about wiki is anybody can add anything they want....

So true...there's no real validation of the data.

yeah I read this too and was wondering. Does anybody know if gold wheels were an option in 2003? I just bought an '03 with gold wheels, red paint scheme, added watsens signals, untertail, full jardine exhaust, gold accents all around and more. It came with the gold wheels and they look factory but Ive seen so few RC's with the gold wheels I dont know if they are factory can anyone help me out with this?

 

[Lothario]

haha, join the club, iv got yellow on chrome enkei rims on mine...
Never seen another bike with them, trust me, iv searched!

confused as hell!

 

[atmeisner]

yeah, as soon as mines out for the shop for the summer I'll post some pics. I wonder if there's a way to contact Honda and find out this information...

One should not drink and drive on the internet.....

 

[RC-DEVIL]

damn ya caught me. one too many jack n cokes haha
i just thought its kind of a ridiculous look for a "limited edition" chome and gold?

 

[madbuyer]

Ha, I was joining you for a drink without joining you for a drink.

Yes, those wheels do nothing for me....

 

[RC-DEVIL]

well cheers!

i always wanted honda to come out with a special RC with factory Ohlins and Marchesinis. but that would have been too much to ask.

gay chrome and yellow, is probably the worst "factory" add on option i have heard of haha

What do you mean? The rims match the two sisters label and it all comes together.
