    Have a 2010 black & white blade currently has track fairing on (done 1 track day) but don't know whether or not to stick all the stock road fairing back on or leave with track fairing on and sell??

    So would have a full set or spare fairing either way...

    Also need help with pricing...

    Bike has fitted and will be sold with:

    TTX36 ohlins rear shock
    Ohlins 30mm cartridge kit
    Gilles VCR rear sets
    Akrapovic titanium Evolution full system
    Renthal clip ons
    Power Commander V
    SES front fairing bracket (either on or off the bike depending on what fairing is on bike)
    Aftermarket air filter
    R&G tail tidy (on road fairing)
    Honda tall screen
    Honda carbon fibre rear fender
    Pirelli Rosso Corsa 2's loads of tread left
    Honda indoor cover
    2 renthal sprockets front and rear 520 15t and 43

    Bike has done 3300 I think without looking and has full dealer history, also where do I sell have thought about putting it on here and flea bay possibly autotrader but depends on how I sell it track bike or modded road bike..


    Any help greatly appreciated!

    from recent ebay sales not many blades are selling for good money at the moment, i guess you dont have the standard parts anymore as you will get much more by selling all the bits and then selling the bike in standard form.

    give motoforum a try it might sell on there

    With low mileage and dealer service record I would put the bike back to standard and sell the parts separate? It is also noteworthy that I would not purchase a bike that came with a track fairing demonstrating the track history and possibly serious use from someone that has a race fairing?

    If you know what I mean, no offence intended!

    I can see £1500-£2000 worth of parts alone which always sell fast, no brainer out it back to standard.

    Put it on motoforum as a track/race bike first, then if no luck try breaking it... Make v v good money doing that with a bike of your spec.

    Fez, your not wrong, no bigger is buying at the mo!

    Ditto with the above..... steer away from the track side of things, put it back to standard and sell the rather tasty parts, doing this is how you will maximise your return. Good luck.
