    Swap Dave:eek: I'd sell my body first just to raise to funds to have it next to the blade, but that's a lot of 50p's

    Awsome bike!

    Always loved the look of the SP, especially the Castrol or Edwards rep.

    I like the Joey rep very nice indeed.

    To answer the question would I swap a blade for a SP1 in a nut shell probably not. I have owned a few blades and currently own a 08 blade and an SP2 which I have spent over 6k modding so not badly placed to comment. The blade is quicker and much easier to ride fast even after all the mods to the SP. However saying that the blade as good as it is, is ordinary next to the SP imo. A ride on the SP is much more exciting, involving and special but as I said earlier slower and harder work. Just my opinion the answer is always going to be a personal thing though.
