    Nice bike, great twin but Italian reliability, or lack thereof. But nice bike. As for the SP2 - MMmmmmmm. Gorgeous bike, great handler and Honda build and reliability.

    SP2 are also savagely expensive.....for a decent 02 you could have a 04 zx10r :(

    What goes wrong on the RSV??

    Yeah, but they hold their value for a reason. As for the 04 ZX10, ain't nothing wrong with them either, feckin' widow makers! LOL

    The RSV can give trouble with electrics. It's an Italian trait. Look at Alfa's/Fiat's/early Ducati's etc. My brother had one and it broke his heart so he got rid of it, got a TL1000R instead.

    What about an sp1? The sp1 and 2 are both great bikes, but apparently one of the most uncomfortable bikes ever made!
    Guy on my commute used to have an SP2, the noise out of the thing was amazing

    Lad over on IBF had one, taught the world of it. But it started drinking oil like a mother fcuker all of a sudden....left it in to get a look at was looking at big bucks to get it fixed whatever happened to it. In the end he traded it for a ZXR and cash off some chap....

    Yeah, last 2 places I got my bike fixed there was one in the garage. I asked about them and got curses from the mechanics.
    As much as I like the SP's, I'd have a ducati ahead of one.
