Dont know if anyone noticed, but the wheels are supposed to be a purple colour, the guy had them resprayed black for some reason.
They look better as they are :thumbup: I think you have a stunning bike there, and with low mileage. The carb versions where the best IMO, almost a classic like like the Storm.

Now go and sit in the corner with Boz and all the other Blade owners. :lol: :lol:

To be honest I would have loved to have kept the Storm, but this was too good to turn down.

Took the Fireblade out this morning, was a bit worried to be honest, first ride and after being on the back of my mates blade, who is an axe wielding maniac on a bike and actually made me feel sick to the point of nearly throwing up, I was taken by supprise, the blade actually ride really nicely and can be very mild and easy to ride, if anything the Storm felt more brutal in the midrange, however the top end rush is 8O .

You'll love it, FireBlades do what they say on the tin and you'll be very suprised how comfy they are, you can ride them all day long no problem, oh and just for the record the pre injection models have a capital B in the FireBlade :D
I was very lucky I managed to keep my Firestorm as well :thumbup:
