    I haven't ridden a bike for like 15 yrs...I jumped on a Harley that is 900lbs dry weight...Yeah sure I dropped the bike. But I pick that shit up quickly and hope no one saw.....But that was not because of my lack of skillz..It was because I installed some bling bling shit on it and move the handle bar to the point where I wasn't use to it.
    No such thing as buyer's remorse on a starter bike. They are *always* in demand. I sold mine for $100 over what I paid for it after riding it for 8 months. I also changed my mind about what I wanted in a bike after riding my starter bike and a bunch of other bikes belonging to friends.

    Also, if you haven't ridden in 15 years, then you have no freakin clue about how fast 600cc sportbikes are today, much less a liter V-twin like the RC-51.

    Swing your leg over one, put it throught its paces and I guarantee that you'll be singing a different tune. Your 15 yr old harley probably went about as fast as my '89 500cc GS-500

    I can't see why anyone would finance $15K for a bike, especially their 1st one. Good luck man, be safe.

    Only two reasons: Either he is super wealthy.... or he doesn't know anything about bikes (including their prices).
