OK I need more feedback from the RC51 riders. I have been interested in going to something different. I have a pretty good idea of the performance envelope but I am still wondering about other factors and "intangibles." Tell me what you think guys. Are the seats made from stone like the 954 or is it just the ride position thats a killer? I have been told the handling is excellent. I was a little concerned with the step down in power from a liter sized inline 4 but 2002 is supposed to have another 18 horse or so and that should put it in the game. Any opinions are appreciated. Don't bother preaching about the torque....most of the guys that are truly amazed by that came off 600 inlines.
- As a side note....I rode a Duc 996 and thought it was a slow and mechanical piece of crap! People say there is no comparison between that and the RC 51 though.?!
Wheelies don't necessarily make you a squid, but bitchin about em' sure makes you a sissy!
