Let's see here, you could buy a TLR and with a few mods have an incredibly cool fast enough bike. You could go the RC route and have essentially the same bike performance -wise same mods and probably have a little faster not as cool looking bike, both bikes bring you some historic value, the RC is the twin that did, the TL is the twin that shoulda,coulda been ridden by Mladin, Ducati and Aprilia too expensive for your budget and too expensive to maintain, at least the Duc is. You can find a new TL for and easy 85-9000 otd, use the extra for a pipe and a rear shock, you got yourself a new butt-kickin machine. Thing is , either way you choose you'll be happy, as for your ergonomics, I'm 6-3 over 300 and ride comfortably for hours on My TL, the Honda has a butt wrenching hard seat that you would need to change in a hurry for longer outings I guarantee this for sure. Good luck in your decision

You're too funny man. A few posts ago, you were slammin' TLs and you were on the "cookie cutter" GSXR bandwagon. What gives? Also, your complaining about the RC's seat with all that built in padding you have? (NT) -- WickdTL, 18:29:56 08/24/04 Tue
- BTW, I do have a TL in my garage, it's become our project bike, so any goodies you wanna sell me off your Crevier replica would be greatly appreciated. What's going on with that Morgue over there on the darker side of town. Prozac alright? (NT) -- Saurus, 15:28:21 08/25/04 Wed
  - I've never slammed a TL for crissake, now sell me some crap off of yours (NT) -- Saurus, 18:00:51 08/25/04 Wed
    - Prozac is doing fine. Can't say much for the board though. About the only thing going on over there is some lame ass that won't quit posting about himself. As far as my bike goes, why don't you liquidate your steeds and take it and all the extras off of my hands? (NT) -- WickdTL, 00:00:51 08/26/04 Thu
      - hmmmmm. We are doing pistons and eventually want 140hp from the TL for my son to race it at willow next year, you still asking around 15K,I did sell my Busa so one down and maybe one to go! give me a holla please (NT) -- Gregasaurus, 02:01:37 08/26/04 Thu
        I don't have your number. Click on my name and shoot me an e-mail. Let me know what you're thinking. (NT) -- WickdTL, 18:21:12 08/26/04 Thu
