RC51

Really sucked for him...no battery, no fuel, a narrow hallway, 3 foot wide door and flat tires. That bitch really wanted it.

 

It's a trailer park Ducati. Just buy the real thing.

 

Skinny white kid just took his car and smashed the front sliding glass door outta our local bike shop.

Walks past 75k in new brand name E bikes and goes for the register.

Once he realizes no cash, he leaves

Fucking drugs man. Will literally steal the soul and any common sense

 

It's a one liter duc eater.....

 

You guys are smokin crack. Mine has no trouble cornering low and hitting 205


kph.

 

Same here, I actually had two. I did 20 track days on the first one before I started racing, not knowing any better I thought it was pretty damn good on the track. My first race bike was a well set up SV. The SV actually would turn corners and I was 4 seconds faster on the first lap. Like Venom I wish I had kept one of them, still my all time favorite bike.

 

I am with Kenny, met alot of life long friends on the RC forums especially Rogue. I raced back in 2002 one and hated it. Bought a street one a few years ago.

 

Good times were had..

 

The RC51 has found a new home. Headed to the Sunshine state.

 

There's one locally that i've been watching for about 3 yrs. Its sitting out in a guy's driveway with no cover on it. I dont think its been moved in 3 yrs. I want to stop and just knock on the guys door and see if he'd sell it. its killing me to see it sitting there wasting away.

 

Stop by, it might be the deal of the year.

 

Or it might have fuel injectors clogged solid and a tank full of rust

 

For $350, that's still a deal.

 

Mine was stolen out of my garage by a crackhead who's still doing time for it. He gets out May 31st 2025. I loved that bike. Made my legs hot, my wrists hurt, and my nuts numb. But loved every mile. Own two Duc's but nothing, in my opinion, beats an RC51 decelerating and burbling through a set of Sato Ti high-mount pipes.

 

I'm partial to an H2 hitting its pipes.....

 

A two stroke flat tracker coming on the pipe at an indoor short track makes me mechosexual.

 

And while standing next to it, idling, and whacking the throttle open....the air around it jumps!

 

Back in the day short trackers were special. If you ever watched/heard 25 AT1 Yamaha’s, all with un-silenced downpipes launch in to turn one…and then 25 compression releases in unison. Puts quite the stupid grin on your face.

 

Well it's no Super Blackbird but......
