    A very handsome Black '13 plate... Oh no... Hold on, that was me.

    An ALMOST as handsome black LJ13xxx plate (from Chiswick Honda) fireblade with ABS... Thought it was a mirror, except the bloke riding it had a brown jacket on... Only done 800 miles apparently and chicken-strips almost as wide as the tyre :)

    Westbound on the A4 by Earls court.

    He was so slow, he probably thought he was on an HRC.

    Funny enough got back to the car park last night and someone had pitched up and parked next to me on a 13 plate Blade with the oh so slow black paint scheme........anyone on here? :D

    Guys we really need to differentiate between the slower 'all black' model and the 'black and gold with silver frame' model which is the super fast version. I wouldn't want any surprised HRC and repsol riders being caught out..... :D

    Obviously I didn't park close enough and you could still get your bike out :)

    Obviously the All Black one is tough enough to take it without any problems. Probably have wrecked an HRC doing that.

    Hey, nice hugger... And tail tidy. Where'd you get a hugger for an ABS?

    Think most of the slower black blades must be getting run in then ? ;)
