Craig, didn't come from motoden they wern't able to help me. Ended up getting it from Dobles in Coulston Surrey, visited on the off chance a couple of weeks ago. Came in as a trade in last week from original owner, 7k miles. Originally supplied and only serviced by Dobles too.

Snap!


Good choice, enjoy!

I can recommend front and rear fender extenders, and a Pyramid hugger to keep the muck off. I have fitted mirror extenders as well which made the rear view much better.
Lots of pocket money goodies available from Jaws who I have found to be excellent. http://www.hondablackbird.co.uk/bird3.htm
I have also fitted a MRA touring screen since this photo and have found that a great improvement as well.

Good choice mate! You certainly won't regret it.

Another vote for Jaws Motorcycles for everything Blackbird related.

Also, these forums (fora?) are a mine of information:-
