    I've been offered them at around 1450 each.

    The GSX R750 is the SRAD and has new tyres, new MOT and 24K miles. It's a
    1997 bike.

    The blade is 1996, 918cc engine, new chain and sprockets, 28K miles, long
    MOT and taxed.

    It's to replace my GSX600F as a training/fun bike.

    Any ideas?????

    The blade will be a very good bike for that kind of money, great engine
    & goes like stink. Mines a 97 & it's the most fun bike i have ever
    owned & I have had a few!

    Rode mine for the first time today

    The brakes put the shits up me far more than the throttle [1]

    [1] - St Albans Road in Watford doesn't give that much opportunity to
    open up on a first outing [2]

    [2] - when I eventually got the bugger started [3]

    [3] - someone hadn't tightened up the positive battery connection

    The only problem with the blade is I owned one before and I think the GSXR's
    handling might be better and therefore much quicker. However, the downside
    might the comfort, especially if I'm instructing all day on the track.

    You won't be out on track all day. I help my mate Danny out when he's
    doing trackday instruction and there's now way you'll do more than seven
    20 minute sessions all day.
