Here is the Blade that took my heart !!!!!


here is Mine and gary's Blades ;)

So the missus has allowed you to buy another bike?


looks good mate, i think i do kinda like the bulldog looks of the 08 blade.+

toying with the idea mate, not bought it yet.

The 08 'Blade is kinda ugly, but in a good way, if that makes sense? It's not offensive, just interesting.

It's definitely a bike i'd be considering if i had the money/experience

I personally love it.

Looks more like the earlier stumpy blades,a refreshing change from the latest crop of generic gsxr's and ninjas.

Well i had it for a hour today and it was awsome.
they gave me figures with mine in Part ex and it very tempting indeed.

decisons decisons

Looks alright. Although a blatant rip off of the r6's rear end.

Very nice indeed !

Just get a decent (real ) exhaust on there, inlike these new styles things that just seem to just out of the side !

Honda say that changing the exhaust will result in a loss of power because of the butterfly in the can. Also it's too small ( ok if your 5ft nothing and 10 stone ) and ugly as sin

loooks the dogs nackers mate just like that jet propelled bike beast

still sounded good when the butterfly opened

a mates got one and he loves it but the can does need replacing for a bsb spec akrapovic and a power commander to beat the valves

go on and do it mate,you wont regret it

I like the RR8 Iknow just after I got the RR7 They started publishing prototype pics in the bhe bike mags and it was getting slated from the start for looks. Although one of the things I liked aboout the early RR's was the under seat exhausts but they all seam to be going for the new GP style exhausts now and I think they look great.
