In its very first year, the Honda RC51 proved its performance potential by winning the 2000 World Superbike title with Colin Edwards aboard. Meanwhile, in the AMA Superbike series, a young Nicky Hayden just missed out on the title to Suzuki’s Mat Mladin by a slim five points. Edwards grabbed another world title in ‘02, and Hayden picked up a win in the Daytona 200 on his way to the ‘02 AMA Superbike championship.

Meanwhile, the RC51 was an instant hit with sportbike fans. Its booming exhaust note was its own sound, distinctly different from the Ducati twins, and decidedly unlike any other Japanese production bike. The twin’s HRC heritage could be seen throughout its design and was proudly displayed on the engine cases. And not only did Honda put this works racing replica machine in showrooms, they offered it at an extremely affordable price.

Price includes fresh WOF, 3 months Rego and 3 months Dealer-backed Warranty
