Honda RC51 description
2005 RC51 SP-2 (aka RVT1000R / VTR1000R)
ONLY 8,740k miles. $5800.
Very clean bike with low miles. Rare to find an SP-2 with less than 10k miles. Clean title, in-hand.
Why selling? Since
owning it I have bought a track bike and started a family, so now I rarely ride
on the road and I need to make space in the garage.
The bike: There’s nothing on it that is not useful for handling/speed (except for the tint in the windshield). Bike never crashed, never seen rain. Oil regularly replaced. Suspension set up for a 180lb rider by Washington Cycle Works, NJ.
Mods:
· Power Commander III with custom map (not downloaded, actually dynoed to the engine). Makes I can give you a copy of the mapping.
· Braided brake lines
· Larger Spal fans on the radiators (direction can be reversed, but I have settled on sucking air in rather than blowing it out across the radiators)
· Crash protection – frame sliders and swing-arm sliders
· CRG levers
· Renthal front & rear sprockets (rear has +2 teeth)
· Renthal chain (530)
· Heat-wrapped headers
· Tinted windshield
· Switch to turn on fans when rider wants
Consumables:
· Pirelli Dragon Supercorsa tires (55 profile rear for better turning) – almost new with 90% life in them
· Engine ice
· Repsol fully synthetic oil changed in May and K&N filter
· HH brake pads
Extras:
· A set of Dan Kyle Pair block-off plates
· A Dan Kyle flapper valve block off cover
· A 10.7 Kg/mm Eibach rear spring (stock is 9.8 Kg/mm)
· Original windshield
· Repsol fork oil

One note: The RC51 is not a city bike – it doesn’t like the
heat. You can Google this. Most owners try to reduce the heat made by
the engine (as have I – see above). As
long as you’re not planning on sitting in traffic, you’ll be fine.
This is a clean bike with low miles.
Please
come and look at the bike & talk to me about it. No trades.
