..maybe..!!? i do miss the rumble though....the Blade sounds like a washing machine...until a put a decent can on!!

only 2 weeks of onwership so it's early days....but so far it's been a scream - and i can happily ride it in the wet now.....

I would of thought a triple would be easier in the wet than a 165 BHP Blade....

My RS is a peace of piss in the wet ..........

- you're right Frank about the triple in the wet - on the RS i could p*ss all over my mate on his grunty RSV mille - he'd just be spinning it up everywhere (and the RS was good on the track too in the wet - only need 2nd, 3rd and 4th to get round quick)...but the blade is quite a pussy below 6K rpm - and it's linear power...after 6 though - it's a rocket (it's only about 135 bhp at the rear wheel... only he says!!) - but the blade is SO light and small - i don't get too twitchy if is starts to squirm around abit as you can muscle it back in to shape....not sure if it'll let me do that in the dry with 11K rpm on the clock...probablt not! ;-0
