    So I put my foot in it about my BM, I have been away for a while as I had a BMW HP4 tbh I had a load of problems with it and now it's back with BM for the last time, my money is back in transit and I have a deposit down on a SP, I rode my mates blade a few times and kind of regretted getting the BM, it's a fan bike but needs some work before it's rock solid oil the blade.

    Anyway I am back in the Honda club, it's been emotional lol

    God I am hanging out for my SP, my mate shoots for a well know bike mag and he is gonna do me some pics coming soon.

    :)

    You'll love it mate. Phenomenal piece of kit. I'd be lost without mine

    Glad to see you've seen sense and come back to the fold :D

    The SP is a top piece of kit and will look even better in Repsol colours when they get around to it ;)

    Saw my first SP in the flesh the other week, and they are lovely without a doubt.
    Id love to know how much better the engine is than the anni models, as I think they are feckin awesome so SP must be so smooth.
    Enjoy it mate.... :)

    Much the same mate, just hand picked pistons etc, no more power just vibe free and smoother, can't wait!

    I think so, latest forks and shock, got to be good! I missed the short shifting and the grunt low down, ok my BM was a rocket ship top end. It was great on track too but just lacked something, the little something that the Honda has.

    There is more buddy, the upgraded cylinder head and exhaust, plus revised PGM-DSFI settings boosting top-end power and mid-range torque on all the 2014 Blades with the SP having the balanced pistons.

    Have to agree it's no looker! Just don't know if I could live with those looks and it has a cheap cast looking frame which I don't like.. Just not sure about them.. Plus new s1000rr coming next year so wrong time to buy new imo
