Defo the best colours same as mine. Decided to track/race mine now but using the same colour scheme .
We'll rob I wasn't expecting you to go to the dark side, well done that colour scheme is the best in my opinion. Only 600 miles and then it's playtime, enjoy it. Then it's mods time !
I had a test ride on one toady, wow what a machine, lightening fast, nimble, compact. Build quality didn't feel as good as my old girl but the bike was awesome. Can see why so many people are swayed.
Only because this is a fireblade forum and I'm a big shit stirer! We've got (or have we) ABS issues..but i don't think I could live with this?.... get em checked boys
In loomies yesterday morning and it was a change to talk to someone who had the BMW for 3 yrs and just picked up a new blade. Good to see people coming this way not just one way traffic.
Rode mine to work this morning in the pouring rain and even with BT-016's in loads of standing water she didn't skip a beat and the heated grips dried my gloves out nicely too. Think really at the end of the day it all boils down to personal preference like for example my SP had really sh*t build quality with paint runs, a gearbox that did not want to go into 6th gear and the standard tail unit falling to pieces and decals starting to lift. Not had any of that on the BM and I noticed when cleaning her yesterday she so wonderfully put together it's disgustingly clinical and German but I do love it. That being said my old 09 HRC blade was built like a tank just solid in everyway shape and form too bad the dealers had to wreck her for me.
