    I'm currently looking for A blade trackbike.. With or without v5, I'd like as many goodies as possible with spare wheels etc.. I'd really appreciate it if anybody could get in touch with something either they are selling or no of anyone selling one. I'll be selling my supersport 600rr when in sorted with a blade.. Cheers in advance for any help i really appreciate it .. I'm in the Lancashire area but I'm prepared to travel for the right bike :cool:

    Good choice for a track bike imo, the way they perform on track is just out of this world....

    The zx is also perfect although I've never ridden one but the feedback seems to be very good and of course they look mint....

    Considering selling my 2010 ZX10R Daz!

    Thinking of chopping in the Road Blade for a new ZX10R which I would then use on Track with very occasional Road use, just don't use the Blade at all now.

    Will PM U the details and goody list which Mat's had already! ;)

    Piccy from Silverstone!

    Both are good, but I prefer the top end superiority of the ZX10, which lets face it is what we use most on Track.

    The Blade is more linear like an electric turbine and just not as fun TBH.

    They aint slow though, the No Limits Instructor (forget his name now) waz circulating at 1.44 on his Blade on Wednesday! :eek:
