MOTM - Jun '18, Oct '16
Rode an RC for about 30 minutes today.

My impression of it -

Power is adequate, but not impressive. Handling and overall feel is light. Mirrors are worthless. Brakes seemed adequate. Doesn't rev very high. Sound is uninspiring.

After about 20 minutes I got some tingling in the fingers of my right hand.

Didn't feel any faster than our Pregen Ninja 250, but it must be.

Feels and sounds like a single-cylinder dirt bike with fairings and street wheels - only not as tall...
