Again though...thanks heaps to the GP Honda boys, top marks.

Love that colour scheme, very distinctive... which can have it's downside of course

I was looking for something as exhilarating in the twisties as the 675 but which could munch up the miles between them in a more composed manner. Seemed like the Blade was the perfect candidate.

More pics!
