    Guys

    This is a pic of the Blade I am a gnats cock away from buying.

    I asked for a couple of more pictures.

    i got this as one of the new pics.

    Now I dont know if its me, but do these pipes look rusty ??

    The rest of the bike looks mint.

    Any ideas about WTF ??

    Or advice ??

    I am afraid its down to Honda cost cutting, plain and simple ;) Ask to see a pic of the exhaust can if its original, they rust like fook after a couple of months of winter use

    How many miles does the bike have, shipmate?

    Cos after a couple that's what they look like.

    If it's being sold as a 0 miles bike then I'd be asking where the bike had been stored.

    Lambeth, by the look of that front hoop, probably in a field with half a million Mondeos

    Hi guys, she has 2300 miles on her. Im looking at putting a yoshi carbon, SS full system on her, but its my first supersports bike so kinda want her looking fine fine.

    I was just a little concerned but hey you guys know better than me.

    Still think these bikes are awesome ??

    Mine looks like a pile of poo after a days commuting down rural lanes, sure it will be fine, just make sure its a refundable deposit if you can't view it first.

    Buying it from Motorcycle Center Orrell in Lancs. Sound like good guys. Not a Honda dealership but they sell Kwaks, MV's etc. They took it in part ex on a ZZR 1400
