RC-51 aka RVT1000, aka VTR100R or the R model of the superhawk (VTR1000F).
I bought that bike to take to the track, not for its mileage, but the range on that V-twin was far too short to enjoy the bike on the street or the track.
That was why I modified it the way I did.
Not to get insanely good mileage from it, but at least get it into the range of reasonable mileage.
I wanted to be able to ride most of the day at a trackday, working on suspension settings and my riding, not worrying about "Did I refill the tank during the last break?".
Rode a CBR250R today, not as great a mileage machine as some here think.
