My little collection.

Post by abrmoto » Mon Aug 02, 2010 8:28 pm

Got the bikes out at weekend and finally got the RC back together after some major carbs servicing last winter. Had a bit of a clear out earlier this year as some of you know, but still got a few little gems left.

The others were still buried in the garage.

And a arty shot for you.

Was thinking of selling the RC30 but after playing with her at weekend having real reservations now.

Nice bikes, Aly! Will the carbon fairings on your RVF stay as is or any plans to get some paint scheme on them?

Yeah is the 750, good intial drive to about 5K, then feels a bit weak till about 9k then absolutly takes off, but you feel like a boy racer reving tits off it all the time if you want to "make progress". Handling is mega and looks amazing, not vey comfortable, infact is most unconfortable bike I have ever ridden but is well worth the effort and pain for the moments when is all going right.
853 is a better day to day bike, love it.

Staying plain carbon, just gold RVF decals to go on, needs a bit of trimming to fit correctly.
Will have to wait till end of race season to be finished now i think, winter project, was supossed to be winter project last year but got delayed waiting for parts. Will be ready for start of 2011 and hope will be as good as i imagined before I started the project, has cost me a small (read large) fortune.
