Hi Guys, just put my deposit on a new 2018 blade in Matt black. Picking it up next week and can’t wait although hoping the weather picks up. Its coming with a tail tidy and levers just got to decide on a screen and slip on..........any recommendations or piccies welcome. Cheers Darren
Hi Ch@rlie, and welcome. Congrats on the purchase! You will probably also be welcomed by a member who claims Matt Black to be the fastest model. I guess you'll soon find out how wrong some people can be. On the brighter side, you'll get heaps of recommendations for end cans. I have Yoshi, which is a tad expensive, but I'm warming to the look of Racefit. If you look at a few pages on this thread, you will see pics of just about every can: https://www.1000rr.co.uk/threads/post-your-2008-2011-blades-here.72/page-46
And why might I wish to do that? The New Oxford Shorter English Dictionary (The recognised authority for English grammar: "Pegging": 'Categorize; Form a fixed opinion of.' In context, I formed the 'opinion' that the weather conditions might prohibit Darren collecting his bike. What is your issue with that?
Bang on, Hitch. A man has to get his priorities right: unload the bike take pics upload to forum AND THEN go and check out new bike!!
I’m afraid your going to have to wait.............. like me. I got a call this morning to say they found some damage on one of the panels and are waiting for a replacement. Gutted doesn’t describe it.
Right there with that statement Nigel. Welcome Ch@rlie nice choice. Screen wise I've just stuck a Puig on mine, had one on the previous bike. Unsightly sticker now removed.
Welcome ch@rlie. Nice bike. You’ll find the matt paint slows you down though. There’s a reason they polish things y’know. As for pipes. Get a RACEFIT. Your ears will love it. Look at my pics it’s fabulous.
OOh, yeah!! Even got the tail tidy happening! Well done. A couple of sunny days and you won't know yourself!!
