A special bike and a MotoGP machine fitted with mirrors are two different things. Does the Honda RC213V-S justify its staggering price tag? Rather than a replica, it is essentially a street-legal racing machine, and a British publication rode it to find out its true worth.
'Fast bike' doesn't do this justice, this is a racing machine, plain and simple. It's not something you can wring out fully on public roads, but the moment you swing a leg over, the tension of the pits should come right back. Before complaining about the price, go get to know that world with your own body first.

Would like to compare the price perception against homologation-special bikes like the YZF-R1M or Panigale V4R too.
The whole question of whether it's worth the price is kind of moot — this is a world out of reach for regular people to begin with.
An article where someone actually throws a leg over it and checks it out for real — sounds like a satisfying read to learn the true value of a dream bike.
Called not a replica but the actual racing machine itself — that really speaks to how serious the RC213V-S is.
Just being able to feel a taste of a MotoGP machine on the street already gives it one-of-a-kind value.
It says the price is astronomical, but I wish they'd also given the actual number.
I remember it being priced in the high ¥20 millions when new — curious if it's still considered worth it even at that.
'A MotoGP machine with mirrors' is a great way to put it — sums up exactly where the street-legal RC213V-S sits.
