Well on the way home today I stopped in past a local dealership to have a quick look at an 04 blade in black with the grey/silver belly pan and ...... Yes a deposit was left as i managed to cut a deal. Part exed the duc like but I have managed to get my blade for the princely sum of £1300 !! Not collecting it till the end of Sept though Gonna be a long wait ! Its an 04 model , 2 owners , full honda dealer service history and completely standard apart from a single seat cowl and a black screen. Will put on an exhaust , tail tidy etc but other than that will just enjoy it . As soon as I saw it and once the guy started it up I knew I had to have it !! Happy days
Cheers mate , Always seems to happen when you`re not looking ! Meant to add aswell that hey are going to service it and put a new rear tyre on too
Their workshop is quite full t the moment with customer bikes etc , And I am really busy with work and I go away again monday so we just agreed for collection towards the end of sept.
I walked out as though I had won the lottery !! So happy and If I`m honest feel quite lucky to have found a nice clean example in quite a rare colour scheme (Well up thi neck o the woods anyway )
Heres a few pics of her . Not the best pics but as I didn`t have my camaera or smartphone with me these will have to do for now !
Well currently offshore at work just now and due home next thursday. Had an email today from the bikeshop to say that the bike was serviced and both tyres replaced today Roll on next friday! !!!!! Canna wait now Got a few bits bought for her already, tail tidy, indicators etc. Just need a yoshi rs5 to compete my mods for now
Aye have to be honest and say it was quite quick and easy really His dad has bought my ducati aswell apparently. So looking forward to collecting it (The blade that is !)
Well tonight feels like Christmas eve as picking up the blade tomorrow at last ! Just chillin with a few beers , Just hope this bloody rain and wind pass for tomorrow as according to the forecast its eant to be ok !
