    Gents,


    Probably been asked many times but...

    I am thinking of a new ish blade, I have an akroprovic slip on, Harris leavers and a HRC screen. Will any of this transfer directly from my 2010 onto a 2013?

    Good news, thanks.

    Still un decided but found a 2013 blade with 130 miles on it for £9.999! 5 grand to change I think that's a pretty good deal.

    So they must be offering £4999 for your 2010 Blade ?

    Have a look at this below, the far right is the average book value for your bike.

    It might give you a idea of your bikes value & maybe you could sell it privately for a little more ? Glass guide.jpg

    Thanks Andy, I have been offered 5.5k for it on a new one 5.900 to change but the new one was red and I'm just not too sure about the colour.

    i dont really see the point of paying an extra 5k for the newer shape, i dont think its worth an extra 5k, not too much difference, imagine the adventures you could go on your original blade with 5k!

    MY12 is the same as MY13 bar diff fairing colours, a Silver frame rather than Black and Gold Forks.

    Agree with Bloy. 5k is a lot to spend, on another bike that's virtually the same as what you have, ok its a later reg, it may go a bit quicker and handle a bit better but is it worth 5k ?(spend it on Road trips, leathers, helmet etc)

    If i was spending a few thousand more id get something completely reckless and get the new SP, other than that the 2010 bade vs 2013 blade, not much of an exciting change i think.

    Always a personal choice, but I am not feeling much love about that red colour scheme.
