    Picked up my RC390 2 weeks ago, here in Australia it’s a learner-approved bike. Such a beautiful bike with genuine character. Eventually I hope to keep it as my commuter and once I have my unrestricted license, step up into an MV Agusta Brutale Dragster or KTM Duke 790. For now though, the 390 is perfect.

    The red light which comes on is just your standard shift light, 8k rpm is about the sweet spot for economical yet sporty riding but the shift light function can be adjusted to an RPM you like.

    Its funny how You mentioned the progression of motorcycle ownership. I got into dirtbikes at a young age and when I purchased my first motorcycle I got a gsxr 750. Fantastic bike, I still love that machine. I rode that bike for 3 years. Then I jumped on a 1000, WOW what a world of difference. I kept that bike for several years , but never felt that comfortable with exploiting its power, let's face it they are animals wrapped in metal cages. After I sold that bile I went back to a gsxr 750, tracked that bike for 3 seasons, my next bike was a Ducati 959, simular power amazing handling. I tracked that bike for two more seasons. Its only now that I have moved up to a big bore again. This time I'm onboard a PanigaleR which to be honest with you will take this entire season 20 or so track days to feel like I can exploit like I was on the 959 and the 750. Who knows I may go back to a smaller displacement again . cheers my 2 cents

    Small bikes are just fun plain and simple. I could ride anything I want but I love my modded FZ-07. With proper adjustable suspension and sticky tires I can flog the shit out of that bike and have no problem keeping up with most sportbikes on track. It feels good to pass and gap riders that are on bikes with well over twice the power that I have. I watch less experienced riders all the time who ride s1000's, R1's, RSV4's etc and they never ever progress because they spend all their energy just trying to manage the throttle instead of being able to just pin it and focus on their lines like they should be doing. Sure they can pass me down the straight but that fun is short lived as turn one approaches very quickly and I say "see ya".

    I bought this bike a year ago today. I wanted more power from the start and still need to make a bit of adjustments to the suspension and breaks, but it is fun in the turns. As to having to flip the peg to lower the kickstand, with the stock pegs this wasn’t an issue, so not sure why that would be.

    I can't understand people NOT loving the RC390. I have a selection of other sport bikes (748S, 959 Panigale, FZR400R, R6) and most of the time; I prefer the 390. I love riding it. It's so fucking nimble, and you can knock it all the way over and drag your shit on the ground. A bike that runs out of performance before I run out of talent, and for a dipshit Street Rossi like myself: it's a pretty safe option. 10/10 on this bike is basically 6/10 on my Panigale, and if I'm feeling spicy; I can go dunk on bigger bikes.

    Hey Yammie! I bought this bike because of your video on it awhile back. The shift light isn't flashing because it's new btw, it's actually settable - you can adjust when it tells you to shift.
