However, it is one of the only 1000s I've ridden where you could full throttle in all gears up to 160mph without the front end coming up. Made for better racing IMO.
 Triple I love how you add the tax and shipping in.

Like I said, with the 2 model years, both bikes full of fluids, the SV only weighs 4lbs less and makes over 10 less hp. I don't see how the RC would get run down by one.. the bike was Honda's superbike platform.
