Hi guy's Just really wanna see what you guys think , at the moment I own an 2021 speed triple 1200rs bought it brand new 18 months ago now it got 6500 on the clock let's say I've had my fair share of problems with it .......... My dilemma is I've seen an 2012 HRC FIREBLADE for sale 3500 miles on the clock yoshi can on it.....if you was me would you trade in the speed triple 1200rs for the 11 year old blade?? Would love to hear your thoughts
Got to be personal preference Jay, are you unhappy with the triple? assume that the problems that you have had on the bike have been repaired under warranty, are you going to take a big hit financially on selling the triple? How much is the 2012 blade? I often wonder about bikes that have done so little mileage over a long period why is that, (I have done that on one Euro trip in a few days) having been laid up for so long is that going to effect the future reliability once normal usage starts? Personally I wouldn't buy the HRC unless it was a real bargain, if you are unhappy with the triple sell it and buy a later blade. Probably not a lot of help but that's my opinion.
Hi Bradt The blade is up for £7995 Like always mate your always gonna take a hit,also I was doing it for financial reasons saving myself a good £150 a month
I've just looked at it, it's ABS.....steer clear Lots of info on here and the Web about the shit system
There’s already a giant thread on it here somewhere. I’ve got a ‘14 w/ABS and not had a problem with it (there’s <6000 miles on it though) but I’m fully prepared to strip it out and save 11kgs if it gives me any gip.
Both the two motorcycles are stunning, if you wanna replace one then choice is all yours. To me your own motorcycle is way more better than new one.
