I thought about the 954 Blade when I got my K8 750, same sort of reasons (well, cost mainly, but also power is about the same). Insurance looked around the same from the rough checks I did online.

I love the look of the 954, too. I went for the 750 in the end, partly cos I can (not a good reason, I know!), partly for the warranty, and partly for the extra spangly bits like radial brakes, (probably) sharper handling, etc. Obviously it will hold more value, too.

I haven't really helped you here have I? But one thing I can say is I'm over the moon with the bike I have now - certainly not disappointed in the slightest.
