    So I already have a 2002 RSV but have always fancied the 2003 R. This one had a revised gearbox ratio, was the first production bike in the world to get radial calipers and the value for money on these right now is stunning. It has Ohlins front & rear, lots of OEM carbon, OZ Magnesium wheels, Brembo brakes and a great motor.

    I got this one for £2800 and it has just over 7000 miles on it and is in mint condition. I'm just gutted it snowed so I cannot take it out for a blast! I took a bit of a punt by buying blind from a chap in Hull but so far it seems great.

    It was delivered at 9pm on Friday!

    Thanks for the comments guys.

    It sure does sound good. It's bloody loud, the can is an Arrow race can, no baffle so the neighbours are going to have a nice alarm. It just had an MOT and passed with the can as an advisory :cool:

    I'm going to sell the other RSV Remal as soon as the new season starts and used prices rise a little.
