    Yes there are only about 6 employees that hand build the RC - 213 Honda's and by hand build it is literally that welding up the frames & swing arms etc etc hand crafting the panels to blue printing the engine a very dedicated crew hence the enormous price tag.
    I am a go fast around corners rider within reason and I never knock a persons ride or whatever they own personally I have owned 6 Honda's 3 dirt and 3 road and if you cast you mind back to the 80's early to mid when Honda introduced the 1100R series up the the 1100RD model then the VF1000R what exquisite machines they were stunning to look at and go like heck.
    I drag raced my mates 1100RD against my VF1000R who ever got the start won as whatever lead you got neither could draw away nor close the gap I think top end the VF1000R may have had it but you cannot beat cubic capacity.

    Honda's have always had a good finished product whilst my Z900's and my ZIR MkI had brilliant engines that rubber frame that bucked and weaved when cornering made ones constitution a bit wary so its horses for courses, I will stop and help almost any stranded riders except the 1%'ers as they want to be in that category so I guess I will pass them by.

    I am glad I got my Ducatis as the F4 MV I almost brought well apparently are a nightmare to work on.........
