Hi there I've got a garage night planned for tomorrow to get the new bits n pieces fitted to the bike. I'll take as much pics as I can as I do it. Things to do: LED rear light cluster Pillion peg removal Powercommander V Gipro gear indicator Pipercross air filter R&G rad guard Flapper Mod Gilles Chain Adjusters (Thanks Claire)
I'm happy to just walk into my garage a couple of times a day to perv on my bikes then walk out all content lol, if I had spare cash I'd be working on em adding but as I just been on holiday and moved house all in two weeks I'll av to wait a wee while lol
And take plenty of pics I know that goes without saying with you Colin, I'm Looking forward to the updates fella
No probs the pics are a guarantee. Get the missus to buy u the bits. I'm sure she owes u since u took her on hols
Nice I had a k8 600 before I bought the blade. I was spending too much on the bike n just thought why don't I just buy a bike that I don't need to do anything to. Look at me now. Doing the same thing. Ooopppsss
The GSXR was £11000 then I have spent at least £3000 0n it on top. I bought the Blade at the right price as a commuter, yeah balls did that happen its mint and I love it I spent tiny bits on it but already want want want lol but im keeping them both so the mods aint a rush and TBH I cant justify it the GSXR I got in May 2010 and its done 1600 miles the blad I got about I dunno 5-6 weeks ago as the the second owner it had 800 miles on the clock its now got about 1200 on it but I'll use it loads next year to commute and Track I cant wait!!!!
Top tip IMO Rid the gixer. Buy an SP1 'never goin to depreciate now' n spend the rest on the blade. I'm getting rid of my car and plan on getting a SP1 to cherish n a run around car to commute.
I been looking at sp 1's for ages now but one of the pissin bike mags published them as a top buy and investment so everyone will do it now, I love them
Totally ageless. There's 1 just round the corner from me with cans on it. N it sounds amazing. It would b worth getting 1 just to tinker with n then admiring, even if it was just in the garage.
More aggressive and feels like it pulls from way lower down but it's been tuned a bit, only Yoshi box but I noticed the difference it just wants to wheelie. The blade is much more refined power seems to come much higher up the revs and it kills me to say it but I think I prefer riding the blade lol
