RC51 Likes..... 1. Duh....The sound. Sato's sound amazing 2. The looks. 3. Very stable in the turns. Tip her in and she stays on line no matter. 4. Very usable power. She will accelerate from 3,000rpm very cleanly and the midrange above 6,000 is intoxicating. 5. Fit and finish is ....well Honda which is top notch Dislikes. 1. Comfort. A torture rack even compared to other sportbikes. Saddle is a bit to soft and the bars are a bit lower than I am used to. 2. The engine is a little snatchy at lower RPMs. 3. Heat. She gets quite warm between the legs. 4. Gauges...Hate the LCD tach 5. I do miss that top end 2 stroke like rush of my ZX9 and my old GSXR but that midrange is so satisfying..... Guess this both a like and a dislike. All in all the bike is an older Superbike platform with very little thought given to day in and day out use. The bikes design is now 10 years old and does feel a bit rough around the edges when compared to the newer sterile bikes. It reminds me of an old hotrod where as the newer bikes are more like corvettes.
