I would go w/the 954 if you use you bike around town alot. The RC can be a pain in the ass when riding around town, but it's fun in the twisties and on the track.

It completely depends on what kind of riding you do.

You start out motorcycling with a full bag of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.


Some people are like slinkies; they're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

I've only spend a few days on the I4's about 8 years ago to base my comparison, but I now have a large twin, and have zero interest in a 4 banger.

Do the RC51 or even better get an RSV
