Default Rc8

Ran into a manager at one of the local dealerships today who was riding an Rc8 rode with him a bit then he pulled over and i crawled all over it. The Rc8 is pretty freaking sweet. (no camera thus no pics)

The dealership here sold the one they had to the Barber museum

I hope to do a NESBA day or other track day at Barber this summer/fall to check out the museum

Me either! I don't like the look nor do I like V-Twins in general. Of course, that's because I'm so used to I4s now.

i like the design in general. ( i like angles as you all well know from my near violent defense of the zx10) but that full nose length headlight is a killer for me. looks better in R colors though.
