Yeah, I have set a reserve knowing that if the bike is a couple of hundred off then I can offer it to the winning bidder without the can, hugger, bellypan, braided hoses etc. They can then either up their offer, take the bike without the extras or drop out and I'll try something else.

To buy a rough example for say £1000 and put it into this condition would probably cost more than £500, but no one pays for mods, good tyres, chainset etc when they are buying used.

I am chuffed with the Blade. I thought it would be really hardcore, but it is just like a well suspended SV, with a lower centre of gravity and a load more umph!
