Big Poppa Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Selling my 2001 RC51. Has 19,xxx miles and is in great shape. Very clean, never crashed, never been to the race track. I have both the solo seat cover and the rear seat. the Solo seat cover has a few scratches from where it came off once, but they aren't bad. No other major scratches or damage. Looks awesome, runs awesome. Huge amount of tq down low. Doesn't have the explosive top end of a modern liter bike, but in town and in the twisties the torque is right where you want it, and always on tap. Handling is "Rock of Gibralter" solid. Very fun bike to ride. Honda did their homework with the suspension geometry and handling.Bike is in very good condition. Only reason to sell is I am trying to raise capital to start a new business.

Jon Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I'll trade you a 4Runner for it, lol. But seriously, I'm going to see if I can sell it so I can buy this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tactician Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Bump for a beautiful super chicken. Been a while since I have seen a 51 without road rash. If I was not almost done putting my gsxr back together I would buy this in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unreal Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Twins are fun. Sooner or later I should get another bike. I sold my Aprilia about a year ago and sold my race bikes before that. Congrats to whoever got this bike. Very nice setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Poppa Posted June 26, 2013 Author Share Posted June 26, 2013 Money in my bank today. Sold. The transport company comes Sunday to pick it up. It was a very fun bike, but too slow. I would consider another twin of a modern era. I have some kind of love affair with the KTM RC8R. WANT one of those!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
