    Hi everyone...

    I live on the east coast of Australia...

    Decided to pull the pin on a brand new 2013 Repsol 'Blade. Should be with me by the end of the month.
    Needless to say it's excruciating pain waiting for it, and until then, I'll be doing more research on mods accessories, etc.

    Looking forward to being part of the 'blade family.

    Cheers...

    Ed

    Hi BladeWitch... I'm down near Sydney... nice to see you and some other aussies on here as well. I might be calling on you guys for advice on where to get parts!

    Right away I'm going to want to do the fender eliminator / tail tidy... so I'm all ears to suggestions.

    ah bugger - your still a fair hike from me - yeah, first thing i did was fit a tail tidy - best one for us i reckon is the R&G LP0063BK - ive got this on two 2011 blades - technically, im told this tidy is illegal but ive never seen anyone pulled over for it yet - they say the plate has to extend past the rear tire but hey, you can see the plate clear as day with this model.

    no hugger mate - dont like them - they pull down the lines of the bike in my opinion - standard $15G each plus mods & tyres say $35G the pair (AUD).
