    IMG_6561.jpeg IMG_6559.jpeg IMG_6558.jpeg IMG_6560.jpeg So i went to Iconic Motorbikes today to take a close look at the RC30 closing on Saturday. I can say it's extreamly clean. You can eat off that bike. We will see...

    While I was there I saw a European VF1000R that is going up on auction soon. It is complete and looked solid.
    It needs a real good cleaning and we will see what the inspection reveals. No, I am not going to buy it.

    God, I fucking love the shape of that tank.

    The mesh side panels are incorrect for the bike.

    Yes Sir … it’s very very clean but may be out of my price range. We will see.

    I had one before and owning one is complicated but I miss my 30 a lot. I do have plenty of time now to maintain it and super clean it every time I ride it … and I plan on riding it plenty!

    Let’s see how it goes … this was my RC30 when I sold it …[​IMG]

    If this one goes crazy, play it cool. Wait for a nice, properly modded rider (AGAIN!!!) and... well... rtfo of it.

    My plan exactly… I mean it’s nice, but may be too clean. Mine will be a rider.
