The RC51 is a well known Honda V-twin that is the last in the evolution of the RC line made famous by the introduction of the RC30. Granted the RC30 and RC45 have quite a bit more appeal to many buyers than the RC51, it doesn’t mean it should be dismissed. Honda doesn’t build anything like it now, so if you want something other than a Ducati in the twin department, you don’t have many options. Throw in Nicky Hayden (last American to win a MotoGP championship) and limited production, it gets even better.
Here’s the seller’s words-
I have a Mint Condition 2004 Nicky Hayden RC51. It does not have a scratch on it and has been garage kept, completly covered and on jack stands except for the few miles it has been ridden. It is all original including tires and will be a Nicky fans dream bike. The bike is in showroom condition. It is located in Thomasville, GA 31792 for shipping info. Feel free to call with any questions.
And photos-
This bike is super low mileage and looks like an all original machine. Sure, it’s a 2004 bike so it’s not all that old but the production is limited. And while these bikes are certainly out there, one with this kind of mileage and condition will only get more difficult to find.
If you have wanted the Nicky RC51 and are particularly interested in something that can go into a collection, this is a bike worth considering. The seller is asking a chunk of cash for this bike, so you’ll have to figure where you’re comfortable and maybe you can work a deal. To make a play on this bike, go place a bid!
