    Hi

    Been looking at HRC blades for sale on ebay/pistonheads and noticed that some have a red tail unit and front mud guard and some have them in blue.

    Does this signify anything or is it just a different year/model ?

    The ones I have seen are registered in 2008/9/10 so I guess they could be RR8 or RR9 model.

    Thanks

    Thanks for the replies, colours make sense to me now :)

    I am torn between Repsol and HRC to be honest, I am beginning to think the HRC colours may stand the test of time better than the Repsol (I tend to keep stuff I like for a long time).

    I think HRC looks better on the newer model
    And repsol on RR5-7
    So I would go HRC
    Dont ask why lol I think it's just the shapes suit those colours better in my opinion
