Had an accident last June in which the upper fork section got scratched. Honda could only supply whole fork at 2 grand which would of written the bike off. I phoned Ohlin's UK and they said they could replace just the fork tube at 300 notes, result I thought. NO, took 4 1/2 months to get tube as it's made in Japan under licence from Ohlin's and has slight larger diameter than the standard Ohlin's fork for the Blade, however we got there in the end
Forgot to update this thread mangar from honda customer care call to say that they had investigated my vin number and my bike should not require the recall I asked for it in writing but still not recieved it!
