Want a 2014 or newer blade

Desperately seeking fireblade..... Hi all, I brought a 2015 abs model which arrived on Saturday but am returning it as it has too many faults. Rusty as hell, flappy faring, splits in seat, black overspray from someone trying to cover up the rust including on the faring, chain in the red on adjuster, front brake pulls to handlebar even on furthest reach. Dealer being ok about it but gutted as spent 2 days cleaning it lol!

So now Im without a bike and have the loan in my bank.

I'm looking for a 2014 or newer model with less than 12k on the clock and in very good condition. Mods are welcome but no insurance cat. Please message me

 

The front brake pulling to the bar is probably the faulty abs. There's loads of info on here on the dire system that's on the 11 to 16 blades. If I were you I'd look for a non abs

 

You may have dodged a bullet there, as above probably best looking for non abs.

 

What's your budget?

 

Under £7250 really but will pay what the bikes worth.

 

Got this but it's a 2013...

Thousands spent on mods, Factory Ti Akra full system, brembo M4/corsa corta setup, Ktech pro rear shock, translogic qs etc

TT legends edition with Mcguiness signed cowl plus SP cowl as seen below.




63 plate with 11.5k miles, would have to check but dont think it's at 12k yet.

 

Lovely bike mate but too advanced for me would be wasted.

 

No worries. Good luck with the search! Always a few blades about so shouldn't be too hard to find a decent one.

 

Couple of urban tigers on although 8k. Not sure how much bartering can be done these days?

Alot of the ones listed on ebay have abs which I would avoid if you can.

 

Cheers buddy but i dont like the urban tiger colours. The purple tank is awfull. Would be like riding an aubergine. Original is the best imo. They seem expensive but thanks for looking its appreciated

 

Literally spat my brew

 

Still on the look out...

 

I sold my 2014RRE HRC colours, to a dealer in June, just noticed they still have it for sale, It’s done 14K, but I owned it from new and know everything about it, and it ain’t a shitty ABS model either, if your interested and want any info then PM me.

 

Any good pal just popped up on fb, looks a good price with very low miles!

 

Ha ha i have talking with him for the last 2 weeks. He contacted me in response to this thread. Hopefully we will be able to sort something out. Thanks for the thought buddy, keep your fingers crossed
