Hello fellow bladers,I am pleased to be the proud owner of a 2012 abs blade in victory red,I don't know what I was doing riding Kawasakis for so long,this is the best bike I have ever had by a million miles,though little concerned about the abs failure threadsaying that no probs with mine.Will post some pictures soon,but mods so far are R&G tail tidy,Honda seat cover and Michelin Pilot 3 tyres,trying to decide which hugger to get,prefer the smaller ones,why doesn't a 12 grand bike come with one as standard?Special thanks to Remal for sorting out a little forum problem for me,cheers BJ
Welcome to the forum mate, re the ABS thread. don't get to worried. had my 2011 ABS Blade for over 2 years thats been used in anger on track, touring Europe and fast weekend blats without a single issue And glad to have helped mate, again welcome
hey - hows it going - great to see you here - look forward to your pics - yeah, i have a r&g tail tidy too - no seat cover - i run pirelli roso corsas and no hugger, cause theyre for wosses in my opinion but i wont hold it against you even if its a small one
Hi and welcome mate,Victory Red,great choice Got an R&G hugger after seeing one fitted on someone else's bike on the forum,quite small and doesn't interfere with the larger undertray on the abs model.
Welcome, those pilot 3 will look chunky on the blade, let us know what you think of then, they are supposed to be great in wet. But as I don't ride in wet, what are they like in dry.
Thanks for the welcomes,I feel part of the family already!,the R&G hugger is looking favourite,sorry BW,got to have one,I'm a little obsessive with keeping my bikes clean and spotless!The Pilot 3 tyres seem pretty good,went for a spirited ride on the roads of north Lincolnshire last Saturday and they seem a lot better than I'll ever be on a bike,had super corsas on my previous bike,ZX6R,they were great but got the Michelins in the hope of a bit more mileage out of them,don't ride in the rain as I'm a woss! BJ
