If it's anything like my double R it will be a bitch to work on. Mass centralisation..? Bollóx more like.

Haha! no change of leathers yet !

As for the yellow one, was tempted, but at the end of the day, the HRC is a special edition and will keep its value better than a yellow blade. The yellow isnt as special as we are made to think.. I beleive its a standard colour in the US.. but with a black tank...

Very good bike but I still think it looks as though something has punched it very hard on the nose. Ugliest 'Blade yet IMO.

Yeah mate but think of the typical person who would buy this bike..

SAS (Saturdays and Sundays only)...
3k a year...
Never dirty (I suppose you are included in this one ; ) )
New leathers with each bike

I'll give you £3,000 for it next summer when it's got about 20k on the clock

im not keen on the nose either of most of them, but VBs look good, probably as there is 3 colours?

considering I only did just over 2000 miles last year you may be waiting a while until I hit 20 K ! hehehe

and yes, they are safety warnings

Agreed about the being punched on the nose thing... but I think the HRC colours make it look less obvious for some reason.... lol plus its got bling wheels... lol
