How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- It exists as a road-legal homologation special replicating Honda's RC213V grand prix machine, prioritizing chassis purity, exotic componentry, and track pedigree over raw power output.
- Built for
- The RC213V-S rewards precise inputs with razor-sharp handling from its lightweight aluminium diamond frame, top-shelf Ohlins suspension, and Marchesini magnesium wheels, feeling every bit the street-legal grand prix bike it was designed to be.
- Not ideal for
- It is not suited to commuting, touring, passengers, or riders wanting effortless comfort, as everything about its design sacrifices practicality for track-focused purity.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
