Having just bought a new Repsol myself yesterday I thought that I would let people know that John at Hunts Motorcycles had got a few bikes left that he will do a cracking deal on. Non Abs £10299 Abs £10799 I can thoroughly recommend Hunts, having bought bikes from them for years, free delivery as well.
Bargain that - it does make you wonder if a new model Blade is on the way with the deals on offer at the moment!
No new Blade until 2017 according to three dealers I have spoken to and no Repsol next year so these will be the last ones, unless they do decide to do them this year ! Apparently Matt black colour for the 2016 bikes. Seems the 'in' colour but a pig to keep clean, shows every mark
"Apparently Matt black colour for the 2016 bikes. Seems the 'in' colour but a pig to keep clean, shows every mark" I had a matte black Tuono for 6 years and found it to be the easiest bike I've ever had to keep clean. Instead of polishing it with waxes etc I used foaming helmet sanitiser and it worked a treat.
Matt does seem to be in vogue at the moment. Looking at a Street Triple R and they come in gloss white and Matt Black and Matt Silver. Personally I'm not fussy on mattes
New HRC (Non ABS) for £9995 here! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-CBR1000RR-FIREBLADE-1000-/231724223859
Maidstone Honda were selling bikes at cost the other day which is £10,300 non abs I think. They had an urban tiger and a few others . Stinks of a new model any time
Looks like all dealers that have a non abs are asking for the same price? £10300? Well I have nothing nice to say about the dealer I got my bike off..nothing bad either.. Just did not get anything other then the bike..even the alarm I asked for was quoted at full price..if it was not full..then it was bloody expensive! So does this mean, this with be the price they can be bought for..or will these deals expire?
Repsols appear to be scarce. Plenty of the HRC models though. I know Honda have no Repsols bikes left at all, the dealer I am getting mine from got their last.
Last on offer maybe? but they can get them for the full asking price - thats what mainstone honda said to me.. then not really a deal.. so are they still making them
I got told none next year as they are only out every two years. Hopefully that means these will be the last of this shape, collectors items !!
There will always be some about somewhere , I got my 2013 in 2014 when Honda were telling everyone they had sold out. Went to Craig's the other day who have a brand spanking 2013 abs repsol unregistered. I reckon a lot of dealers store them or know other dealers to track them down if they want one. I'm waiting for nec bike show if no new blade next year I may part ex mine for a 15 abs repsol over the bad weather
They don't have any non abs Repsols, someone I know rang them. It appears that most bikes now are the HRC and the odd abs Repsols. Not all dealers are prepared to sell their bikes at 'cost'
