    So I pick my 2011 repsol blade up a week on Saturday and it's completely stock. Any ideas on what the first thing is i should do to it? I was thinking maybe exhaust, HEL lines, rearsets, power commander? Any suggestions

    Tail tidy has gotta be the first mod . Then Get a slip on ordered and in the time it takes to arrive remove your pillion pegs and get her run in ( 600 miles ) ready to open her up with the new pipe and listen to the thunder !! Ha Ha

    I was told they wouldn't be doing 0% and I guess there will be a large number of 2011 that they will need to shift so might get some good deals in the new year
