Re: Green or White
I don't like cf swing arm covers.
I fitted venture shield to the blade swingarm to stop marks from my boot rubbing but once the damage is there its obviously too late.
The paint does look easy to mark. I would if I could touch it up.
Thanks for the feedback guys

Yes the Blade has gone.duke63 wrote:Sweet!
Did you p/ex the Blade, Blade?
I still don't actually feel like its happened yet, especially after the last deal fell through at the eleventh hour so fingers crossed everything goes smoothly from here onwards.

Re: Green or White
I guess they are delivering and picking up your bike in the process.
This is the best time of year to buy a new bike. Shortest window in which to do it but between now and about 3rd week of January is when dealers look at their bank accounts and realise they need to sell something quick to pay the January wages.
Is it the one with the Akra can?

Re: Green or White
I know you would anyway but do a bit of research on which quickshifter you get. I'm sure I remember a fer horror stories about the zx10 gearbox not liking certain ones.

Re: Green or White
Just vaguely remember reading on TDR or motoforum that a few people really didn't get on with certain makes but can't remember details. Just having a look now...
