Might swap the Blade for an 06 RSVR. What thinketh the hive mind?

MilleR rocks ... Blade rocks ... horses for courses. Road riding, probably choose the blade -- track riding the Mille :-)

Funny you have it that way round. Know precisely why you've said it, but one of the reasons I'm thinking of doing it is because the Blade is far far better on the road in terms of straight line and corner speeds than the Mille ever was (had an 02 RSVR nicked this year), and sooner or later, someone is going to catch me.

The only reason I havent bitten hands off is because at the back of my mind, I'd like to find out precisely how good the blade is, and thats probably a track job.
