The only reason I don't like these bikes is they are a bit too good, not quite got the rough edged character some other bikes have that I like. Awesome bit of kit. Brilliant tool to do a job.
dont buy a blade coz its "a bit to good",well thats a new one to me,they are as you say a awesome bit of kit and i would say more rideable/a better all roundbike then a r1,and is just as happy bimbleing along at 2000 rpm as it is at the redline,and if you dont have the suspension set up to firm its no worse on our bumpy roads then any other bike,and if you want good mpg the blade or atleast my 929 will if you ride at a steady 70, 80 or even 90 mph will return 50+mpg they also have a almost bullet proof engine and build quality second to none,yes i must say there a bit good,why if you looking for a ports bike would you want fairly good bike when you can have a very good bike!
