Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade

thanx, but a bit far just for a testride, but thats not a bad price, pity its yellow & black, not black & yellow.

i have my heart set on the 02 (see avatar) but as the 03 is the same bike, im just after a go on one first,

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade

I love that shape blade, the best looking of the lot IMO.

Let us know how you get on.

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

M4 Jc 26 (Before brynglas tunnels), through malpas. When you get to the roundabout for the bypass don't go towards abergavenny way but head for cwmbran down cwmbran drive. First roundabout turn right then your next left into an industrial estate and left. You'll see a big honda sign as you come towards the roundabout. It's by the parkway hotel if you know it.

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

what sorta test ride did they give you? were u out on your own or did one of their guys follow you?

How long they let you have it for?

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

I think the 04 ones are gorgeous :) was this version slightly bigger?

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

on my own......... he said 1 hour, but i dont think they are too strict

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

just needed both parts of your licence with you to test ride eh?

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

yup........... then off i went, up to venny. i got to have one noe though:smt077

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

How different was it to your current blade?

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

top speed wise it did not seem hugly differant i only got it up to 130 but its a lot quicker getting there, i also found that i was doing 60ish in a 40 zone with out relising, it had a remus can on it, but it was a bit quite for my liking.
the newer one was more comfortable, which surprised me, seemed a lot smaller & lighter. i was a lot more conifedent on roundabouts and bends.:pig:

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

Have you still got the smaller front wheel on your bike?
I always find it difficult riding high spec bikes for comparison, their setup can change everything. I have to admit they're mighty fine looking bikes :)

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

it just felt good? hard to explain realy, but it felt a lot easier to ride

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

sadly the first one is too expensive, and the 2nd link does not work.

i have been looking for a few weeks now, and not realy found "the one" maybe im being too fussy?

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

found this........ if only it was a year older

http://www.gumtree.com/london/52/16824652.html

not keen on the colours on the 03

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

I'd go for it if I was you dude, can't really tell for sure from the pics but it looks as in a good condition as any bike that age. Decent price too.

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

but its the wrong colour

(although i am tempted)

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

I reckon the black on yellow looks better than the yellow on black

DO IT, you know you want to ;)

Re: help finding a 2002/03 954cc blade
 

the more i look at it, im getting to like it, i would still prefere the 02 yellow on black, theres somthing about the black head fairing on the 03 black on yellow that does not look right?
