I have owned the 50cc Futura, but you probably want to know more about the RST1000 Futura? 8)

my mate had one and loved it, Falco engine etc it was great till he got water in the dash. 9 weeks later still no spares!!!!! Funny undersea exhaust looks odd imho.

I personally have not had one but a good friend got one after having a mille, Only had it about a month and he had to change the engine as it developed a knock on the bottom end, it was quite low mileage as well about 7,000 miles :thumbdown:

Never owned or ridden one but I was looking at one before the VTR, heard very few bad things about them. Very funny looking though, in hindsight!

Didn't sell too well and can be picked up for around 2-2.5 grand, lot of bike for the money.
