Never say never breh. You telling me you wouldn’t touch an rsv4?



Rode a '16 RSV4 Factory Edition, insane power, as soon I hit a freeway onramp and twisted the throttle i was like :damn: . Felt like a missile, I was hanging on for dear life. Just raw torque and power in that v4 engine. I love twins tho, had my Superhawk 996 for years, put 40K on it before I sold it. Still want an RC51.

Must have been glorious. I’ve heard Aprilias aren’t that reliable though, never owned one myself. I’m looking for a TL1000R though.

RC51 always been sexy to me too

It really was, plus it had a LeoVince slip-on, bike sounded like a combo of a big block chevy and superbike at the track. Yea they definitely have their reliability issues. One of my friends had a TL-R, he loved it.

Rode an RC51 for a weekend, torque was off the chart, that thing could uproot a big ass tree. Seat was highly uncomfortable along with the riding position due to the clipons being low. Gear driven cams, add an exhaust and it was pure sex. Basically a racebike with lights and license plate holder, at the time Honda had to make a street version of the race bike, they was whoopin ass left and right on the track with it.
