tidy's up the rear eand so much. it looks so much better i dont know why they done do it as standard...
I loved the looks of the 1050 since it was first out in 2005. when they changed the lights I would still buy one but only if they put the old style lights on and told Triumph this at the NEC in Nov
i prefer it too - but do think the new one brings it in date a little!! change is ok - you just need to adjust. how many guys on here hated the 08 blade when it came out, now everyone says how pretty it is....
When the 08 blade came out and I seen it in the flesh in the red and black I knew I had to have one. Loved it since the day it was released. Also don't like the front end of the 2012 blade as much as the 08-11 blades
They need somebody with a sense of humour and a flash of inspiration for the paint scheme for the front end. Has anybody noticed how 'fanglike' it looks. Sharkmouth anybody?
