RC51, just for the simple fact tat you wouldnt be just some tool on a busa. The RC51 is a much more special bike, one that you will enjoy more in the long term.

i am really surprised no one has seen the pics of the new 1200 vfr with shaft drive some badass looks, shits real and headed to the states... but my vote is rc, i must say i will always have my pig, its a beast that hard to beat, if you got any questions let me know, i got 24k on mine that i put on with a total of 30k on it with the previous owner and have not had the first hiccup and i use and abuse my bike

I saw the pics... Its fucking horrid. Uglier than the zx14 even. And on top of that, its shaft drive. Another FAIL by honda.

Why couldnt they just have made an updated blackbird

Oh, and all that said, I love the 51, but im considering trading the Hog for a Busa. I miss having more power than ill ever need on tap whenever I want it. And I want something ill be fairly comfortable on. And trust me, the RC51 is NOT comfortable.

For me it would be the busa, and I'll likely have one in the garage in the next year or two in addition to what's already in it. I swear the busa is the Rodney Dangerfield of motorcycles.

How's the aftermarket support for the 51? Parts easy to come by?
