    I'm not a fan of the L0-L2 looks, but totally agree with K5-6 lovin', best real world sports bike engine ever.

    Every time I throw a leg over my K6 it gives me a buzz. Yes a great engine. Well over fifty bikes for me, but it's a stand out and affects me just like the Mach lV of 72.

    So your RSV makes as much as an 1198R? Methinks not.

    Don't get snippy, was how I read what you wrote. Sounded like you were talking about your bike to me. Can see my mistake now, my bad.

    You're still a tool though!
