This bike was laid down a few years back, but I have since brought it back to look great again. However, this is not a bike for the weak willed. There are a handful of flaws, none of which take away from the amazing performer this bike really is.
For starters the bike has a set of aftermarket fiberglass race fairings. They have been prepped and professionally painted a beautiful red pearl color I blended myself. The paint itself has its own personality given the time of day, source of light, etc.
I molded a set of foglights simply to keep the man in blue happy. I have ridden this bike at night, but it's probably not the greatest idea. Light output isn't the same of a traditional headlight setup. The good news his the "blazer" brand fog lights I used are able to be retrofitted with modern HID's which will almost double the light output.
The frame has 0 dents or dings. Just some paint abrasion from the factory plastics rubbing.
This bike (frame,swingarm, wheels, forks, bars, etc) is 100% straight and has been well over 170mph(indicated) with no problems.
The original owner is a close friend of mine and I'm positive the bike has always been garage kept, oil changed with factory, ProHonda oil, and filters on time. The coolant was just flushed last year and new HP Honda coolant was added. The fork seals were also replaced last year.
Its also got a Jardine 2-1 system, fitted with a Yoshimura pipe intended for the left side of a Hayabusa. I had a custom stainless flange laser cut to adapt this to the right side of the RC51. It sounds GREAT. K&N filters, Power commander, Ohlins dampener, Stainless brake/clutch lines, Vortex sprockets +4 -1 and a D.I.D O ring 420 chain. Flapper valve delete, I made aluminum block off plates for the PAIR system and deleted everything that goes along with it. Tinted windscreen, small mirrors, custom undertail with integrated turn signals. The bike shows 24,500 miles but is significantly less being that its been geared nearly its entire life. I would guess 13-15k. I have a CLEAR TITLE in hand($$$$)
Things you may not like:
The wheels, and swingarm have scratches throughout. SCRATCHES, not gouges or anything silly.
The front air snorkel is a 2 piece design, The piece that trims the fairings has not yet been replaced since the crash, which means the map sensor is ziptied to the 1 piece that is existing.
The tank has two blemishes ,it seems pinholes under the paint are allowing fumes to create a "pimple" sort of affect on top. I figured this would be remedied by your choice of decals. No the tank doesn't leak.
The mirror bracket has a tab broken off where it mounts to the dampener mount. It's been like this for years and has not caused a problem.
Will need a new rear tire.
The previously mentioned stainless steel clutch line is NOT installed.
Two quarter turn fasteners for the farings are missing. One is a Honda specific part, about a buck298 to replace.
The gas caps hinge is broken
Basically it's a great street bike, with a healthy dose of trackbike, the season is over and I feel the price reflects it.

Some pics were taken RIGHT after paint, so it's not totally together
