well it looks like I'll probably be getting an 2000 RC soon...well most of one. I found a guy parting one out that is goin to sell me a clean frame, motor with 4k miles, swingarm with rearshock, subframe, ecu, reworked race forks and triple tree for 1500 bucks. sounds like a great start to me :D not alot of money and I can score alot of the stock parts for next to nothing most likely so I have found my next project :D
I've always wanted one to build and the parts are getting cheaper and cheaper so I'm goin to do it I'M so excited. I think I'm goin to do a similar paint scheme to the RR but i don't know we'll see. anyways I'll be sure to post pics when I get it. should be before christmas

well here's what it looks like now, mind you I'm not getting any of the body work or the exhaust, rearsets etc.

and this is what I think I'm goin to go for, I like the 05 colors, and the sato high mounts are awesome looking, but I think with some gold wheels, rearsets and levers

lol, medik your bike is the one that inspired me, but don't worry I won't copy too bad :D I just really liked the color scheme. I think the RR might go that direction some time too not black and gold but all black. I don't know we'll see

the two bros carbon cans sound fuckin tits on the RC. like i almost bought an RC51 instead of the 1000RR just because of that sound. it LITERALLY gave me a hard-on.

$1500 bucks? can't go wrong as long as everything is straight and true!
