    As title says but am looking at getting one hopefully not long. I had a blade in 2006 but we went our separate ways on a country road smothered in mud after 2 years. I had 3 years without a bike as the injuries i sustained were not up to it. Last year i bought my current bike a triumph street triple r to see if i could still ride ok and it seems to get better with time. However i feel the time is right for me to get a blade again. Soon i will be looking for a 09/10/or 11 plate repsol colours. and now the question what are the differences between the years. i seem to think the subframe went from black to alloy about that time but are there any more.
    Thanks Wurzel.

    hello wurzel and welcome along good hear your back on a bike again after your off, good on you! also had a bad one four years ago and still suffer now but its hard to give them up isnt it, think repsol subframes where silver 09-2010 and then to black 2011 might be wrong i usually am. :)

    Welcome Wurzel. Glad to hear you on the mend but you might want to get the doctors to have another peek at your head mate, everyone with a right mind knows the Repsol’s are the slowest of the Blades regardless of year.

    Freedom, he's just getting back in to riding a Blade so he doesn't want to jump straight on a Black one as it would blow his mind, he's better off starting nice and easy with a Repsol leggit.gif

    Welcome to the forum wurzel, pics are a must (even if it's not a blade) as we need our daily fix :) Don't forget to add yourself to the members map.

    Welcome Wurzel. I have recently joined the Forum after purchasing an 09 blade, although mine is for the track but does have a daytime MOT. You are not far from me so maybe we could meet up in the spring / summer with some other members (I will have to get home before it gets dark, lol)
