Its a bloody good point, You could paint it blue and write Yamaha on the tank Id still love to ride the RCV just to scare the living shit out of myself!
Honda had some problems with the 1000s as they changed the weight rules when upping the CC however it still clocks in at 148Kg and pumps out somewhere around 230bhp....lol Not bad I guess and with 7 stone of Pedro on it pulls around 0-60 in a sec or so...
