Lovely looking bike the 07 'Blade, but a bit too focused for me....

The new 600RR is not quite so, and also looks great.

Oh I wish they made a CBR750RR :confused:

I meant this 07 Fireblade colour

Well with the 800cc GP bikes you never know what bikes they could release next.

Prefer the all black one, looks good.

I'm Blade fan and these just don't do it for me I'm afraid.
Honda/Yamaha - Yamaha/Honda clones - all pointy noses and sharpedged little bums (at least the Gixxer has a bit of personality). And as for the seat - your perched on top of the beggar, like you are just along for the ride rather than a part of the ride.

Don't get me wrong, they look good if you like that style - and they are as solid as they come...

... but I'm kinda glad they've reduced the 'Fireblade' to little more of a footnote in their decals - for me it's just not a FireBlade it's a CBR RR.

If this is the one I think it is - did the blue look really dark, but sparkling where the light hit it?
If so , it's Honda's 'Pearl Siren Blue' - the colour they use as the base for the Repsol livery.

Can someone confirm who's seen this in the flesh?

Yep it did, great description of the colour there

Must be my camera, checked the pic I took of the Repsol 07 Fireblade at the NEC as well and the base colour looks really dark as well, almost black.

Is your Blade the same colour blue, cos it looks black in your pics.

Yay, some one else who can finally confirm that my Blade is BLUE!:cool:

Yeah, I wheeled one of our display Repsol Blades out into the sun to prove to the sales guys that it was actually blue over a year ago. They thought it was a mettalic black and wondered why I was whittering on about getting my Blade 'painted in the Repsol Blue'...

... daft beggars thought I mean the shoddy leccy blue that the Repsol CBR 125 is painted in.:smt087 Dumbasses.:rolleyes:

I'll grant that it looks black to the untrained eye;) even in the flesh. Though those artists and designers amongst us would be able to tell the difference when put up against a black bike - I know, its stablemate was my Black SVs.:) But once it's out in the sun, or in a spotlit arena its true colour shows through.

[Baph]

It might be just me, but given the date of the posts...

When's the tax due on the black bike?

[Quiff Wichard]

yea looks like a 5 from a distance

I think its an 08
