A lap around Isle of Man aboard an RC45

I found myself wanting to push on the bars just a little more cause of how close he gets to stuff.

I will say this once more. The RVF750 TTF1 was NOT an RC45. Same basic layout but the bits and pieces, the wet weight (less than 320 lbs for the RVF) and power (~180 and change for the TTF1) show they were different animals indeed.

I guess Hislop didn't know the difference cause he calls it an RC45 in the intro in the first part.

Political correctness for Honda of Britain. They couldn't make any money selling an unobtainable bike but the RC45 sold very well in England. I will try and locate the article where Mick Doohan and Wayne Gardner won the 1991 Suzuka 8 Hour on the HRC RVF750 TTF1. The author points out the $200K+ difference in price between the RVF750 and the RC45.

cool I'd love to read it. everytime I try to find info on that bike I never find anything except maybe a pic or 2.

As someone who has little fear of high speeds, I'll state the obvous. Those guys are nuts
