Had the bike stripped down for the last few weeks, built it back up yesterday.

Swingarm powdercoated satin black, spring coated purple, linkage brackets done aswell. Also re-painted the shockie and did a lot of polishing/cleaning.

Might be up for sale to fund a kit car build over the winter but im undecided

Yeh it was ipf. Its good but the swingarm has a few imperfections. Spring turned out brilliant. Was only £60 for it all so not bad.

£2500 for a quick sale but if I was advertising it I'd be wanting closer to 3k.

Genuine 12k miles on the clock aswell, almost positive its got to be the cleanest Blade this age in the country. Never seen anything that even comes close.

Hard!! I stripped mine myself but paid a local bike place a tenner to build it back up for me.

You get proper bike spring compressors but there £30 and I didn't think I'd get the use out of them.

The Mille swinger fits these and also looks awesome!
