Dutchy, do you have details on the rack mount for the Givi trunk? Custom made?

RC made it home. 11K mile bike with lots of extras. Receipt history for work done incl Racetech sprung/valved forks and shock. Tires on order, need to make some time to go through it and change out all fluids.

Lol, ok, picking up Saturday. Garage is getting tight, mbd in full swing. So glad Mrs vfrcapn fully supports the addiction.😂

I'm looking at picking up an '02 RC51, 11K miles, Dymag mag wheels, Jardine exhaust, Scotts steering damper, plus a bunch of other goods and extras including an extra set of Honda plastics for track use. It's been sitting for 4+ years, the owner is over 70 and says the riding position isn't for him anymore. He's had it since '04, and I believe was the 3rd owner. It's going to need tires, fluids changed, maybe fork seals, registration renewed. It's registered non-op but has a clean title. Other than that it looks very clean, runs & sounds good, maybe needs some Seafoam and/or old gas changed out. No indication it was every low-sided. Price is $5K and he will not budge on that. What's the wisdom of the MBD group? Add it to the stable?

Do you know the paint code for that red?

I had the same 2nd gear issue at 93K with my original '99 motor. $300 for a lightly used motor with about 25K on it and I've put another 25K on it since without issues. The money saved on shop labor you can throw at new hoses, seals, clutches or Sebspeed clear clutch covers.

118k miles (190k km) on a '99. Not my daily rider any more but still 2-3x per month, still fires right up. Had it since basically new. Wouldn't hesitate to jump on it right now for a week-long ride.

So DirecTV and Comcast dropped Bein sports in the US, taking MotoGP and MotoAmerica with it 2/3 through the season. Any word on another outlet in the US or are we just stuck with streaming online?

Nice! Thought about the same thing, a '99 though. Looks good.

The SP1 and SP2 bottom triples have different stems. Only the SP1 is going to fit the top VFR bearing (check that, my memory is failing me). Pic of both, SP2 on left, SP1 on right:

Did you stay in Bologna? The wife and I are planning a trip there, probably next year and she's put this on the must see list.

Bike looks great! Everyone have a good time, enjoy and be safe!

I'm also going to need to bow out, hate to miss it but life intercedes. I'll be cancelling my Rocket Motel reservation today, in the next few hours. Have a good time everyone, enjoy and be safe. This is still the best motorcycling forum on the web with the best group of users. Cheers all!

I just moved from the Chief to the Rocket's last queen room.
