Ugliest blade ever.

It's okay.

 

Oh I like it too, reminds me of looking at it all those years back and wishing it were mine!

 

That's fcuking mega, what a bike... Almost as good as



That was poster stuff for me. That and the rc/nc 30

 

My first Blade was this one!

 

They look better in the flesh, even a 95 NSR125 looks good

 

Thanks, here is my other one as well

 

Anyone else do this with it though?

 

Probably that’s one of the great sophisticated upgrades Honda did for the 2015 model.

 

What is? Do you mean the ugly paint scheme?

 

I must admit when I first seen it photo form I really liked it but then I saw one in the flesh and didn't think it was as nice

 

The race bike version looked better but then don't they allways! I like it, mix of old and new just my cup of tea

 

Haaaaaaaaaaaa, right, the ugly paint scheme because they have done nothing else, haven't they?

 

No one likes a smart arse.

 

Shell suits spring to mind.

 

That's why I went for black and gun metal!

 

I think it's partly an age thing but I doubt there are that many on here who would nt have seen the original and wanted one. I did -but ended up getting the less iconic purple turtle,( hope they don't make the new 2016 re vamp in that scheme ) which was still a booming ride, I recall many happy miles tucked in with those big cowl/ screen stabilisers in my peripheral vision. I saw the new one in the showroom a few months back. To be honest I was totally unimpressed, looked too... brown and random, the colours don't really fit with the new lines, well not in my world they don't.

I remember seeing the original Urban Tiger in my local bike showroom and thinking to myself "How on earth can they ever improve on something as great looking as this"......... I wonder what the Blade will look like in another 20 years
