A RC with no pipes sounds pretty sick... I cannot wait to get the Scorpions on... Just imagine the sound of a V-Twin Rocket rumbling with those.... I cannot wait to get them.

Mine was 10,3 OTD with 200 in fees. Then I spent the extra on the new ramp (in the pics), new jacket (500) and new helmet (300). But the accessories I got at a 15% discount and I now have a 10% lifetime discount on top of store discounts for life at the place I got mine. IMO I got a good deal.

My favorite bike I have is an 03 Rc. I love it to death. I have a quite a few things done to it, one being the high mount Microns. Behind the plastics, I wrapped the exahuast in heat wrap. I love the bike. Im sure you wont be disappointed at all.

PS...I love the black/dark gray with the red. Mines getting painted soon, I still need to come up with a better scheme. Currently, its the black, red and silver stock paint job. I had the wheels painted red, and the coolers anodized red with mesh. I wish I could post a picture, I know you guys have seen it. Any ideas on colors I should use next? I was thinking pearl white, with gold wheels and having the calipers powedercoated red, but im not sure.

Anyways, I love the 05 paint schemes.
