    so they will look like all the other repsols, be slightly slower than the black ones and much slower than the Hrc's?

    i'll pass thank you :)

    TBH when I ordered mine I really wanted the TT Legends paint job and my local dealer was advertising it as a £300 extra, which sounds good in isolation but in reality it worked out at £1700

    Base price of an ABS Blade was £11,995 + The TT Paint makes £12,295

    Got a quote from a dealer 100 miles away for £10,590 for a new 2012 ABS in HRC colours which is £1705 cheaper!


    Much as I love the TT Paint I aint avin me pants down for pushin' £2K! :eek:
    Local dealer couldn't match the HRC Bike, or even come close so that was that!

    Brucie Bonus was the Dealer 100 miles away will deliver to my door FOC! :D


    Roll on March the 1st! :)

    I've just found the first released pictures of the new paint scheme on a fireblade.

    Brilliant price that - that is almost ABS for free and on prob. what will be the easiest colour to resell as its the only metallic finish as far as I know.

    Please dont forget venture shield for it as it makes such a huge difference to live of the paint finish - ask dealer to fit it and bundle with price (along with rad guard being the other essential - tail tidy, seat cowl and hugger all nice to have items, in my opinion anyway!)
