    Oooo whatcha got? Dangit! Bikes just drawing me in.
    I would do a 45 over a 30 personally. I was eyeballin one that was track ready, but had cal title and OE bodywork/stuff for the street. I would still have to sell the Duc, 250, and Big Red and find $10k most likely. :(

    But it would be an RC45 in my garage!!!

    Do it!! Get one back for the team!!

    I like the lines of the 30 …
    And would most likely sell the GPZ1100 & the FZ750

    Hold my beer and watch this! Get one 6, it will make you happy.

    Same as 6, no garage queens in my house.

    Since a real 45 is out of question, my fake one will have to do. Honestly what I really want, is an RC51. I had one, sold it. Kick started our bike flipping with that money, but still wish I had the bike. So my next goal is to find a decent RC51.

    RVT1000R

    Never liked calling them "RC51". I don't care what the decal says, it's not an RC. It can't be, the displacement is wrong and the VIN agrees.

    It's an SC45

    Some twat at American Honda started it when the rumors of a Ducati beater were circulating and he thought it sounded cool. It stuck and even Honda of Japan caved for the US models.

    FINE.... lol RVT1000R is what I would like to find. I really do like my twins. SV superbike, Superhawk, RVT, Ducati SP1k, Hawks, and NSR (hahaha).
    I just want an original one, not the stupid tidy tail. If I really think about it the Superhawk instead would be cool. I loved my previous bike SHawk. Put 24k on that gal.
