no... it's a liter bike and one that you may have seen at Laguna Seca Raceway. That's my hint.. it's a sport bike.

ahh.. sorry chain, you're close. It's an RC51. This is the Lazareth VTR1000 RC51. Only the french could do this to a sport bike... the swing arm is off a MV Agusta and the damn thing is supercharged. All for about $80,000.

O.K. Don, I said RC51 -- you said I was close but it was an RC51???? Is it an RC51 or a VTR (isn't that a superhawk?)?

Sarcasm... doesn't work on here. I was pissed that you got it that quickly... it's a VTR1000 RC51.
