actually i prefer Inline engines rather than V engines. less noise. Less vibrations.

 

One thing odd about proarm though. Just how does having the disc brakes, sprocket as well as the pipe to be on the same side make it better than typical swing arms?

Proarm was invented to allow easier wheel removal (pull it out to the side), especially if the bike is used for racing.

 

Moreover, I think it's more of a design constraint. These might be the reasons why the parts have to be placed one side of the bike.

One thing to add which is proarm enables the bike to have more agility and easier to control during bends and corners.

 

Like they all say you wun know how it feels unless u ride one and the V4 for a 400 makes the pickup and mid range full of power , i luv it lots whne i high rev that bike.

 

I did not felt disapointed when i downgrade frommy old 750 bumble bee to an RVF and Im one of the ppl who purposely buy it to ride to relive my dream before i stop riding for good as i felt i ought to own it at least once ^_^

Hi... i am a RVF rider... jus to answer ur qns... y RVF is so popular... it is depending on each desire... if u really go for speed, CBR will be a wiser choice as it can clock more than 240 km/hr...

 

but wat i like about rvf is the unique sound that it has... whenever u start ur bike, everyone know that its RVF... same as PGM4 when it clutch in... although RVF top speed is not so good as CBR, its pick up will confirm win... tested and proven...

 

if u all realise, RVF is higher and shorter compare to CBR... with its pro arm, cornering is more stable than CBR...

 

previously when i was thinking of which bike to get, CBR really tempted me due to its price... 1 1/2 CBR = 1 RVF... but now i got my RVF, i didnt regret cos it is really a good bike... i am able to control my bike very well when corneriong...

 

i believe that if all of u have this qns in mind, u should really try RVF... and you will know y so many pple are willing to pay that price jus to get a 10 year old bike...

 

[correct me if i made a mistake]

 

upzzz for all RVF rider....
