im considering getting either one of these for the road.. seen a few at handy money private. looking at the k8 onwards one for the 750 or the k5-k6 thou for road use.. any body got any experince etc they would share? views and opionions greatly received.. thanks in advance
Iv'e had a k7 750, bought it from new and had nothing but a great experience with it. Yes it's a little gutless compared with a litre sports bike, but the handling was great, very easy to ride quick The only negative i could say is if you carry a pillion from time to time I found it frustrating having to knock it down the box all the time to get some power Also watch out for the exup valves they are a bugger for sticking putting the f1 light on
You cant beat the grunt of the 1000's mate, a well sorted K7/8 1000 is as good as a K5/6 and are now very affordable ( Ive had them all from the K1)
Not far wrong mate but IMO I'd say an 08-11 blade are cheap as chips now days for the level of bike you get for the money....
Kinnel Daz! You might as well be a Dealer for the amount of buyin' n sellin' U do! Why not just keep the 08 Blade your selling instead for the road?
The 08 blade I was selling is sold . It went went Wednesday just before the sp .. Only got my blade trackbike now ..I've put a good chunk of brass in the bank to keep the wife happy ( so she thinks) it's really so I can wait and see what's new for 2015 .. Agree the blade is a lot of bike for the money bit fancy somet different ..looked at. Cat d rsv4 which I'm contemplating.
I would get a rsv for track not road unless for posing. Had a k6 750 for road an track great bike. Rode a k6 thou for a day thought if I bought one I'd loose my licence. Just felt so naughty I'd say it depends on what u want from it What can I say I just bought a Harley
Yeah saw that if this is what ya mean? 2012 APRILIA RSV 4 FACTORY A-PRC DAMAGED SPARES OR REPAIR **NO RESERVE** (5563) | eBay
Well ridden 750 on twisty roads will stick with a thou, thinking mans sports bike. Brand new Gixer thou is £9k new, just a thought but 5k down and put the balance over 3 years and its a £100 a month... just saying like
Out of all the bikes I have had ( mainly Thous) The 750 is really what did it for me .When I bought it I could have had the 1000 for about a grand more but more than happy with my choice .
Looks tempting if the auction doesn't run away with it's self! Looks like just plastic and light scratches from a 'Driveway Spill' to me. Make a good Track Bike that!
