View Full Version : new firblade ed_the_duck 19 January 2006, 21:56 any oppinions? MY93WRX 19 January 2006, 22:13 Honda Firblade:wonder: Is that a new model to the line up?:rolleyes: :lol1: MattOz 20 January 2006, 14:16 Ed, I've got one and it's fantastic. :thumb: Not as quick as the GSXR or ZX10, but great to ride and will not rust into a heap like the others if shown a whiff of salty road. ;) Ferris Bueller mode on > "If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up!" :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v13/MattOz/MyToys022.jpg Matt Bravo2zero_sps 20 January 2006, 14:39 You have a carpeted garage? :o I like it :D MattOz 20 January 2006, 14:48 Bravo, LOL :D It does occasionally feel odd to be hoovering the garage! Still, it's much better to kneel or lie on than concrete. Matt Bravo2zero_sps 20 January 2006, 14:59 I bet! My garage is so full of crap that I do all work on my bike (what work I do that is!) out on the street. There is only just enough room to park the bike in it. Time to clean it out and get some carpet it :D Would seriously like to do that but riding in all weather the carpet would rot as badly as Suzukis wiring putting the bike away dripping wet every night. Perhaps get some heaters as well :D :idea: pnbond007 20 January 2006, 15:11 I really want a Repsol blade, they are awesome. Though I prefer mine to have black wheels. I would be prepaired to let my Scoob go for one of those, but absolutley nothing else. For me, best bike available Bravo2zero_sps 20 January 2006, 15:29 I wanted one until I saw the price tag of 9k+ :eek: pnbond007 20 January 2006, 15:32 Did you see the one on e-bay a few weeks back for 6k, it looked nice, only 1200 miles!!!!! it Just had a claim against it. Cat D I think. Bravo2zero_sps 20 January 2006, 15:35 Bike thiefs dream bike as well, after having a spanking brand new (5 day old) R1 nicked I vowed never to have another new bike but that Fireblade in Repsol colours is the only bike to make me want to break that vow. MattOz 20 January 2006, 16:04 Repsol Blades are lovely. However, a mate of mine has a Repsol 600RR-5, and that's even better. The paintwork was done by a company called Rage, IIRC, and it shows the standard Honda Repsol paintjob up! :) I have a mate with the Repsol Blade and he's very very happy with it. He upgraded from the standard black/silver 04 coloured bike. I like 'em, but would rather have mine done in Minolta rep colours! :D Matt ed_the_duck 21 January 2006, 00:02 MattOz > < > < > < > < > < > < > < :D >Its already been ordered:D 2weeks ago BTW nice carpet:D Moray 21 January 2006, 02:36 homo, ride it more often, its to clean LOL Bravo, LOL :D It does occasionally feel odd to be hoovering the garage!

Matt Moray 21 January 2006, 02:37 Yeh, the colour looks real good when looking at yourself in shop windows :) I really want a Repsol blade, they are awesome. Though I prefer mine to have black wheels. I would be prepaired to let my Scoob go for one of those, but absolutley nothing else.

Matt Well having seen your garage like that it made me want to clean mine out today, got rid of loads of crap up the tip and now got lots of space to fit the bike in and room to work round it, tools all in one place, paddock stands easily accessable still no carpet though lol :D jameswrx 23 January 2006, 10:12 Not as quick as the GSXR or ZX10, but great to ride and will not rust into a heap like the others if shown a whiff of salty road You're right there, dread to think what the ZX10r's are going to look like in a few years :eek: Mine was allready showing signs of wear with 1800 miles on it. MattOz 23 January 2006, 10:56 Spent all Saturday afternoon out on the blade and it was awesome. :D I'd not ridden it since early Jan, and you forget how urgent they are! Full tank of Optimax in one sitting. Nice! :) Moray, you'd be proud, as I've not cleaned it since! LOL Matt Moray 09 February 2006, 19:34 Yeh I ride mine loads its real dirty ;) ... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y77/morayr6/Motorbike/DSCN0339.jpg Moray, you'd be proud, as I've not cleaned it since!
