If anyone is after a fully tricked up blade there is a mint one on tdr forum with a huge list of extras including ohlins This bike was in Jerez in November when I was there and it is mint and belongs to a lad called Martin who won the NL newcomers 1000cc on it . Bargain price of £6500 if I hadn't just upgraded my suspension I would have it . Look at the below list of extras Honda fireblade 2009 all numbers present and correct,no v5. ohlins 30mm cartridges and ohlins ttx rear, brembo master cylinder, braided lines, gpr steering damper, hm plus quickshifter, hrc style sub frame with crc seat unit. seaton interceptor fuel module better than pcv recently set up at frank wrathels, gb engine covers, samco hoses, full akro system with removable baffle,akro carbon mudguard and rear hugger, lightweight race battery, renthal riser clip ons, hrc quick action throttle, hrc overflow bottles and holder, carbon frame and swingarm covers not covering any nasties, trw rearsets, gilles gearbox outlet strengthner, superbike tank cover with stomp grips fitted, light tec flip up clutch leaver, 2 keys, lees cycles 5mm shorter dog bone (this makes the bike turn quicker), shark fin, tsubaki chain and renthal sprockets, suspension just serviced and engine just had fresh Castrol oil and filter. bike is fitted with 1 day old n tech slicks new painjob end of last year bike is in immaculate condition £6500. phone martin for pics and more details.07928 627722. It looks exactly the same as this one but don't think it has brembo on this is his mates bike but they have the same colour scheme .
yep had a few battles with Mart,very nicely turned out bike. he's bought a 675 of all things now though.strange people these bury blokes!!!
I take it he is racing again this year with the change to the 675 think I would struggle with the drop in power as I do enjoy the Blade and BMW power. I do like the colour scheme could be tempted myself as it's the same lad that painted those that did my fairings. What colour scheme is it from or is it just a custom one?
