Just picked up a 2002 RSV R with only 2500 miles! I'm feeling pretty lucky as it's spotless besides 2 small scuffs from being parked in someones garage. :devious

Feels good to be back on a V-Twin (Used to have a Suzuki TL) more fun than my current 600rr.
However I need an exhaust now, the neighbors kids aren't crying in fear when I rip down the road like they used to on my TL...
If anyone has a New or Used Acro Dual Exhaust for the 02 RSV R for less than an arm and a leg let me know. :exclamation (I'm in the US)

Anyways, love the bike, it handles very precise and I love that. I think I'll have this one for a long time. :inlove

Greetings,

Kai

Well I'm finally getting some seat time on the new bike, it was a bit intimidating at first because it's so nice and clean, but I'm quickly getting used to it and I gotta say, this thing loves to corner, I can already tell I will never reach this bikes full potential, it's absolutely Awesome.

Another thing I just noticed that I find interesting is that the VIN ends with 00002, so it looks like this is the 2nd bike off the assembly line, just thought that was kind of cool.

Here are pictures of the new ride, cut me a break on the chicken strips, only have about 2 hours of seat time, they'll be rubbed in soon. :biggrin

Let the modding begin,
