I service a stock RC45 on Saturday. They are still a very good bike and the engine is so smooth on one compared to the HRC version. The time seems to of passed to find cheap ones but less than mint ones do still come up for more realistic prices.

Id take one as rough(cheap) as you like, remove everything not needed and use it. HRC mods would have to wait until my numbers come up tho :(

I was looking at it against my 35 earlier and even with the RC45 replica seat unit on it they've got the proportions all wrong on the NC, its visably longer than the fat stumpy 45 rear end. i think ive got too much time on my hands :geek: :oops:

I know your thought, Tony! Few years ago I was tempted to buy an partial wrecked RC45...did not went for it and got an mint NC35 instead. Then had another chance on another RC45 minus the genuine bodywork that was replaced by some race bodykit in kevlar. Now the money is spend in the brickes and paint of my home...one day, some day... :pray:

Thanks for the article & updated pics, now I miss it even more! :cry:
Favourite quotes on the article: "If the RC had mirrors, I'd be able to see the following RSV4 disappering from view behind me." & "Simplistic joy. Best dash ever?" 8-)

DM, let me know when you get tired of it. :peace:
