its craziness, the first thing anyone who bought it would do is fire it up and ride it......... Defeats the object surely

I beg to differ - despite being more modern, the RC45 never enjoyed the success nor gained the iconic status that the RC30 did. When it came out, the RC30 was simply the best production-based race bike in the world and dominated World Superbike and World Endurance and every other branch of proddie-based racing for years. The RC45, despite being a wonder of Honda Precision Engineering, wasn't as good, relatively speaking, as the 30 was and didn't succeed on anything like the scale that the 30 did. Of the two, I'd take the RC30 every time (were I to have a spare £35k sitting around with nothing better to spend it on)

Although the 45 is the better bike IMO it's less collectable than the 30 due to the 30's racing history. So i sort of agree with you

As Mitch says, he didn't claim it was the more desirable of iconic bike but surely the more advanced technology that went into it makes it a better bike in terms of pure performance?!
Still... Id have the 30 xD
