I reckon after the blade I will likely go back to Yamaha...
They all say that until thoughts of something spicy, exotic and Italian creep into the mind. Look at those who've succumbed already...3D Pete, Allan, Ade.....
It's a slippery slope my friend
You want that skinny Machiatto decaf
You want to say Ciao to every shexy lady
You want that man bag, it looks hip.
Owning an Italian is a serious business. Your life will change, your friends may not understand, but you will.
You'll live life with Brio, Verve and To much handy/armee type gesticulating and you'll eat weird s
t and drink vino but you'll be changed, irrevocably. It may end up costing more than a serious Meth habit and leave you broken hearted in the middle of nowhere but nothing will come close. Welcome to the dark sideFORZA!!!

Must be some on E-bay Shirley??
or that CBR forum you puffs are now frequenting??
Not for sensible money... I've been offered a Powerbronze carbon one for not a lot of money so tempted with that. Would prefer the HRC one but most are going for silly money second hand. Not surprising really.or that CBR forum you puffs are now frequenting??
Some decent guys on there... already bought PCV, O2 Eliminator and tank grips off there.

Not familiar with the Power Bronze stuff so can't comment. But if the HRC items are pulling strong money, then it stands to reason you won't lose much if you punt it on? Some decent guys on there... already bought PCV, O2 Eliminator and tank grips off there.
I had the HRC on mine and it was no where near 300 quid but that was way back when. But it's a quality piece of kit and the bike desperately needs a hugger.
As for the Forum, I'm guessing it's Matts one? Good place but since I moved the Blade on, no point in hanging there. Daisy frightened them all so I made my excuses and left
Now you just need to sort the gearing out and you're set.

That's true but given recent expenditure and Xmas and Snowboarding Hols coming up I need to wind the expense in ... I had the HRC on mine and it was no where near 300 quid but that was way back when. But it's a quality piece of kit and the bike desperately needs a hugger.
