I love this. I have an ‘01 SP1 and just acquired a frame and swing arm for an ‘03 SP2. Planning to make it a Nicky bike and am going to use some of your ideas. Thanks for sharing this.

The modes are beautifully done,nice a subtle but classy.

Thanks for posting, and Enjoy this excellent Bike fully
this was a dream bike of mine when I was a young man, watching Colin take on and win the Titan of SBK in Ducati - and Nicky making this bike dance and change direction during its launch in AMA

[@stevensullivan]

Great story about your RC resurrection and the CBR wheels look great. Did you replace the headlight assemblies and if so what do you use? Keep on cranking out the videos!!

[@marcjorgensen]

Thanks, I was able to clean up the headlights and reuse them, they were beat, but the tabs were intact still.

[@canadapainter658]

Yes

[@rbyourb]

Great videos, love what you've done to both RCs, I got a 04/sp2, haven't ridden it for a while, gas pump won't prime now, any suggestions or links to help me troubleshoot? thank in advance :)

Sexy bike I love it

[@jeffreygardner9911]

Were can we get the 6 piston calipers and adapters

[@Morten_Nielsen1979]

How does it drive compared to the Panigale?

[@marcjorgensen]

It's about 20 years behind technology wise, and probably 80 rwhp down, but I tell you, Honda makes a smooth running bike that handles great. The SP2 engine with a PC. Flapper disabled, soft rev limited removed and exhaust holds its own up till 8k or so, but the brutal power and sophistication of the Panigale. Its hard to compare them. But fun factor is through the roof on a SP. Something to be said for singular focused simplicity of the early 00s sbks

[@UniversalContentTv]

Where did you buy the fearing kit can you send me the link please thanks I will appreciate it,also are they exact fit?

[@jamesmorris2411]

Where did you find a Dan Moto map?

[@marcjorgensen]

Using a ladybird map I think? Can't remember, or maybe it was another slip on map.

[@SeriesOfTunnels]

Can't seem to find those m&m switches. Do you have a link?

[@marcjorgensen]

You probably won’t, they were done by another enthusiast who only had a few sets made. Don’t think he will ever do more. Will G on the rc51 board

[@donpenn-er9mg]

where can i find the will moto switches you have on this bike?

[@marcjorgensen]

The guy that made them only did a few pair, they were one offs, he had the mounte cnc'd and did all the wiring for plug and play

[@sportbikemike]
