I might exchange my 2009 blade for the 2016 SP one. Does the SP, ABS version have the same problems as the other ABS blades from the same year(s)? I love the gold wheels and tiny Akrapovic. I need this bike. Also, will my gold engine casings fit onto this bike. I don't like the black ones. Mine is a 2009 blade.
Have a look at Jax Motorcycles Only down the road from you in York. They have a 2015 with a akro.It is absolutely mint as new condition
I'm going down the same road as you @Great Guy & aiming for either a 2016 non abs or the sp. Just be advised that if you get an abs version regardless of whether it's had issues, the bleeding is still a big service cost. I gather it's still a lengthy bleed on the new abs blades too.
