I've been riding for about 3yrs now I'm looking to buy a RC51. I currently own a 94 zx7r and I'm wondering if I would be ready for a 1000 . Any advise or suggestions I will consider.
WITHOUT A DOUBT! HAVEN'T TRIED ONE YET, Thank God! I'd want one!I think the Ducati 1198S or 1098R will be quite the arm straightening experience for a V-twin.
A twin with 170 to 180 HP and 97 Ft/Lbs of torque with a dry weight less than 400 Lbs would be a LOT of crazy fun.
same here, i had an 05 600rr and went to the rc and love it, im faster on the rc then i was on the cbrThe RC will give you linear power as opposed to the in-lines which will be rpm driven. The torque is exceptional. It's stability is also stellar. It's not the lightest or most nimble, BUT it's still very forgiving. I went to the RC from a CBR 600 and I haven't looked back...
I can relate to the "different drummer." Just ask my wife! Those who have ridden behind me say my bike makes a low freq. "pulsing sound," more like the sound of an on-coming train rather than the vacuum cleaner sound an I-4 makes. BTW: Something tells me you're far from the slowest out there! LOLI've always marched to a different drummer and I love the fact that my bike doesn't sound like all the others.
It could even be the slowest bike in the bunch and I'd still dig the sound (which is great!).
If everybody had an I-4, life would be boring.
Just as if everybody owned the same car with the same color.
I manage to do ok for an old fart.I can relate to the "different drummer." Just ask my wife! Those who have ridden behind me say my bike makes a low freq.
