    Very tempted to christen my new blade this weekend, weather forecast looks good for the south of England.

    I feel a visit to "Loomis" or Bury Hill might well be on the cards.

    2009 HRC Blade. There was a deep scratch on the fairing so they have had it re sprayed and are waiting for some new stickers from Honda.

    Good to hear it's been done properly.

    Probably worth waiting the extra few days for a good job.

    Its the first time I have bought a bike from a dealer and so far I cant fault them. The stickers cost £110 from Honda apparently.

    Honda fairings & Stickers aren't cheap.

    Buying from a dealer does have it's advantages at times, especially if they're a good one.

    Judging by the forecast for this weekend here it'll be a breeze (or should that be a gale) to break 200mph if the winds behind you. Just make sure you've got wets on tho and not slicks:D

    As you come over snake from glossop end and approach first bridge at the dams (the one in piccy) there a left turn, it takes you up past all three dams Inc one where the dambusters trained, the scenery is beautiful n there's a cafe with yummy ice cream half way up :) @Stevie_d
