It's happened quite often,people hear RSV1000 and get confused with SV1000, which of course does have a TL motor ( of sorts) Simple mistake to make. :dunno
to be honest i think some rsv's had other engines in ,take kens(aka hondacbrrr06) for instance , i pretty sure that has a c90 unit judging by the way it holds back on ride outs :nana:nana:nana

Best fun off roader ever, bar none. Anyone see the doc where they dropped one out of a tower block a few floors up and it still started. Proper bike, not like the Italian rubbish

yeah thats right. charlie boorman i believe did that. if i remember rightly, he emptied it of oil then went to the chippy and got some smelly old chip fat and filled the old honda up. kicked the starter and it ran ok. think he said it seemed to run better:biggrin
