    hello and welcome, now is certainly the time to buy as there are some very good bargains around, as for your questions about the taylor made exhaust on the repsol, well for sure its the best looking exhaust on the market for the 08+ blade and it does make quite a nice sound, some people love them BUT performance wise they are not the best and will struggle to give any extra power and i dont think they are of the greatest quality either, and they are bloody expensive.

    just so we are not totally biased and lull you into a false sense of security, the 08+ models are not without their faults and you can end up with a right pig if you get unlucky, some of the issues include the abs issues, oil burning, a clutch recall for the early models, a crank recall and maybe a few other things here and there, all of the above issues do not effect all bikes and only occur in a small % but just do your home work before you get 1.

    i realise i have made the bike sound a bit crap there, but its not, its one of the greatest bikes around

    As above, shipmate. Some people like the look of the Taylormade zorst. But I've heard they're pretty rubbish. Have you checked out Racefit exhausts? They're gleaming and made in Britain.

    Hi dude mine has ABS with no issues however if I changed up now I would give it a miss,mainly because there could be problems to come and it cost more and when I got mine half the stuff like rear sets won't fit use the extra dosh on goodies .
