    Good price with all the trimmings shame about the 1990's pant scheme and I couldn't open the garage to that face! Wouldn't buy it as don't like how it looks, but a good bike.

    That will be hard to match by the others! Reckon yamaha with have to drop prices a bit on the new R1 to match sales

    It may well be the fastest, best-est, rocket ship on the planet but MAN, that is one UGLY bike hahahaha...

    2012, best looking model so far imo.

    Going to be a real split thou bike market, with the Gixer and Blade the lower price / low tech route, while BMW, Kwak, Aprillia etc. go for the premium price.

    A HUGE number of those S1000rr Sports are rented on PCP deals due to high cost, which Honda have offered low rate finance deals over 3 years to get similar monthly cost, but with one you hand the bike back and have almost nothing to show, with the Honda you have a paid off bike which is your own.

    What's the base r1 16? I think at 14 it more realistic propersition, no riding reviews of the r1 yet though.. I liked the BMW at the NEC very comfy to sit on. Fully leccy ssuspension on the sport is quite tempting to. Defo in no hury to buy anything new though lets see what honda and Suzuki can do next year... They have to do a new bike 2016 they just have to!

    Totally agree ...Honda has to do a new blade for 2016 ,tasty the sp is its just not up to date enough with the latest crop of updates and still our blades are fast enough but were down on power now with the 2015 crop
