Why are RC-51's so expensive?

The TLR was purchased by Whites & Blacks mostly...... who owned Z28's or Mustang GT convertibles......who listen to eminem or kid rock

Doesn't mean one bike was actually better than the other.......it's just the image Suzuki tends to have in general, compared to Honda. Witness all the people who diss GSXR's like as if they know anything about them

I just gotta ask....do you really sit and think about this shit?

I wish he wouldn't. Now not only am I feeling like I need to unload my Buell soon, I'm wondering if I was viewed in a negative light for being in the RC51 demographic but choosing the TL1000R instead!

You (presumably) are a man. Integral to that is you already know everything about manhood and shouldn't need askmen.com for shit.
