it's only an hour from me.
Somewhere I have a motorcycle magazine (Cycle or Cycle World) where they test the "new" 1990 CBR 1000. I remember in that issue, they also tested the Kawasaki, Honda and Suzuki 750's, and the RC30. With the close-ratio trans on the RC30, the other 750's creamed it on the drag strip and street. But it sure is a looker.

Check out this 1990 Motorcyclist magazine on ebay where they test the superbikes and the RC30: Motor Cyclist Magazine April 1990 Comparison Sporting Superbikes RC30 Test | eBay

I'm not sure which Kenny G video I should post. Forever in love? The moment?

I'm watching this right now

BENELLI TORNADO 900tre | eBay

Maybe not as exotic as the rest, but even at the asking price it's sooo much bike it's like loose change!!

Can someone near me please buy it so I can have a go?

Is there something wrong with these bikes, why are they so cheap second hand? It's barely used and they're 10 - 11 grand new.

Very rare in the states, Hawk, and I don't know anything about their build quality.

Well if they are built anything like Benelli Shotguns - they'd be good

True. They at least look a bit better than hyosung's.
eta: although the newer hyosung 650's don't look too bad.

If I had the cash to spare I'd buy it, just as a piece of sculpture.

If it leaks oil or water, just drain the fluids and keep it in the lounge, next to the TV

And yeah Mark, it might make a good hair drier, but what guy doesn't like to get blown??
