    I was going to buy one last year.. went to local dealer with my 1000rr that i was gonna trade in. I was sitting on the rc8r and a rude salesman came over with an attitude and said hey kid can you read the signs? Do not sit on bike... i said ya i seen the sign but im thinking of buyin one and nobody was helping me.. and as far as seeing the sign i seen it and now im going to go buy a rsv4. Thanks.

    Effin dbags. Couldnt be happier with the ape... i will be racing/tracking it this year. Ive got 3k on so far with no mech issues. Only issue i had was i got hit by a car on the street. Had no intent of trackin it but here we are. ...

    Wish ktm dealer wasnt a complete tool cause i really liked the bike but not gonna deal with their bullshit.

    Where is your closest dealer? That's pretty harsh, man on their part. Especially for a possible RC8R sale...

    Bentleys in murrysville pa. Best part about it was i was gonna trade my 08 1000rr in and pay cash for the rest... i went home looked up closest apriilia dealer (xtreme powersports) in deep creek maryland called them and trailerd bike down next day. Even hooked me up with all kinds of goodies to seperate them from the experience at ktm dealer... if anyone is in market for a ape call them. Awesome guys great srvs and good prices.

    Extreme PS is awesome. I drove all the way from Cincinnati to buy my Tuono there. Great folks that know their shit.

    That's a bummer as they had that unit for a looooong time. If anyone is interested, ask for Ralph or JJ and work directly with them. They want rid of that thing and are willing to make a great deal!!

    Ralph and JJ need to work on their sales peeps then...

    Where did you find one? I can do a search for you if need be. I haven't been to Bentleys for over 6 months so, I wasn't sure...

    I enjoyed racing the Race Spec I had. Raced it bone stock except for revalving and springing the suspension. I couldn't run with Toye and Sarros in F1, but that may have been more of the component between the seat and clip ons than anything.

    I've been racing mine just as it comes of the showroom floor except for heavier springs front and rear. Period. Fast and easy to ride.
