    seems to get more expensive every day?
    I guess there is a big demand for them?

    Bit of a piss take really!
    With its extras over stock blade you could prob justify the increase but at this rate your prob better upgrading your stock blade the way you would like it

    this will always happen and it's not the people selling who are stupid but the people who will buy them at the highter price

    little example: Xbox 1 on Ebay going for £600+ WHY? would anyone pay this when they are £430 for christ sake. little Johnny can wait until Jan or Feb for a cheaper one. I know my kids would

    I actually think Honda have dropped a bollock here and underestimated demand.
    I was thinking of getting one, but it seems they are all but sold (not really interested in the ABS model).
    All this behaviour and Grahams story has pretty much made my mind up for me.
    I'll either wait till one pops up second hand or just do the mods myself.

    Looks like Honda are even encouraging loyal owners to look to other manufacturers?

    Noticed my old Blade has had it's price lowered to £6889 plus 0% finance, at Two Wheels in Edinburgh.
    They gave me 7k for it.
