My new 05 RC51
I picked up a 05 RC51 a couple of weeks ago. Man I love this thing, more comfortable than my old CBR900rr. The sound with the Satos is amazing.
Here are a few pics. Has all the goodies just need to change the gearing.
Satos
Corbin Seat
Helibars
KN air/oil filters
Trex Frame sliders
flush mount signals
undertail

I didnt even know helibars would fit with that cockpit, do you hit your hands on the fairing when you hit the steering stop? Anyway looks great. Definitely a bike i would not mind owning, wish honda still made it!

No the Helibars don't hit at the cockpit at all, they will hit the tank on full lock.

I don't have any pics right now of mine.
I have a Dussault's undertail(Black), looks great. Here are some links to other solutions and pics.
RC51.org Undertail Options for the RC51

enjoy..

thanks
thanks for all the comments guys. I put around 200 miles on the beast last weekend. Man this bike is fun. we kept a good pace nothing stupid. We rode
trails on Sat (stayed at a buddies cabin)then rode the street bikes up thru blueridge - morganton down 60 thru Suches then back to Dawsonville. I love the sound of this thing coming out of corners. We found a new way to load the bikes in the truck too.
