    Hi chaps/ ladies

    New to the blade scene and after a couple of days of negotiation where I 'think' I've ended up with a good deal, I'm about to push the green light (tomorrow) on the purchase of a 2015 non abs in tricolour (hope it's a good choice. Had a few bikes in the past, the last being a naked, however I can't shake off my love for the sports bikes.

    Scary thing is, I have no background knowledge or experience of the blades, only that I have ridden a 13 model very briefly.

    All comments appreciated before I pass over my hard earned.

    Cheers :)

    I usually go with the ''It's an Investment, these are going up in value, we'll make money in the end''.
    Welcome, and Good Luck,
    Mike.

    Cheers folks!

    Threw a curve ball on it all today, I'm now having the Repsol instead! Saw it in a dealership and it just looked the b@ll@cks!

    And I'm half way there with the Mrs. So far she knows I'm only 'thinking about' it. Hopefully by Sunday she will know that I'm 'having one' :D:D:D

    Nice upgrade to the Repsol. It's widely regarded here that it's the fastest colour.... ;)
    Be good to see another Repsol around oatcakeland :)
