    Ok, before xmas i thought id decided to keep the 07, but i really, really want an 09 onwards to toy with, yes i agree with Arthurt that the 09 isnt that much better (if at all) then the 07, and mine is super super sorted, but i have a stockpile of parts here for the 09 AND prices are holding well for good spec 07's, question is, what the frak do i do?


    Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp.:D













    (ps, anyone wishing to purchase an absolutely batshit mental 2007 SMT Honda Fireblade can make themselves known here, ta):eek:

    If you've already got the parts for the 09 then to me it's a no brainer mate.

    Once you've got the bug for change, that's it (subject to funds of course).

    Mmm nasty place to be that... :S Rather you than me...lol I do think the 08 is a better package all round, in 08 they said give me yours and a grand and take a new one.....man sleepless night but looking back I am glad I kept the 07! :D

    But I would have an 08+...lol In the end I spent the money I saved on a nice V twin...that put an end to all that 08 mind job!

    I reckon you should keep the 07 , sell me some of the goodies you have for 08+ and buy the full Bazzaz with TC for the 07 with the new funds

    Sound like a deal Mate ?? Ha ha

    I have never used my head/brain when buying a bike or car, I always get that feeling in my stomach that says go for it, so Craig if you've got that feeling then crack on mate and change it...you know you want to?

    6k for everything, given the spec, and the fact its a minter, & legit, its worth every penny. Brogies old 07 stocker of lesser spec fetched 6400 in november so i know im not overpricing.

    l had an 07 hrc which i loved the bike but just wanted a repsol paint scheme. looked into having mine converted or selling then buying 07 repsol but in the end after a few weeks of dithering bought an 11 plate repsol. never looked back since. The 07 was a cracker but the new one just seems to do everything better and easier.
