    5,800 for my current RR8. Bought it when it was 1,800 months old with 4k miles on the clock.

    Very happy with it. Won't be changing it for quite a while

    Approx £10500 for my current brand new Blade.
    When ive done more than the current 50 miles i have on it I will comment on happiness.
    It makes me very happy looking at it though!

    That's what I say about mine Benn, I won't be buying another, so it was worth every £££ but I am looking forwards to modding it once I've a few miles under my belt. :)

    Paid £4700 for my RR6 in August 09. 7500 miles on it and I'm the 3rd and final owner. Nearly spent £16k on a new Aprilia, but our only Aprilia dealer in N.I. doesn't do test rides so their loss.
