If anyone wants a different picture here, PM me.

Winter proper here in NZ so have to use a few pics from a month or so ago.
Suits well with the red white and blue theme and I'm ok with that as our flag is also red white and blue but we have about 46 less stars on it :)
93 F2 sporting her original colours and stickers which have survived the test of time and a few added here and there. All pretty much factory and I was lucky enough to get all the receipts for on the dot service history from previous 2 owners. I'm the 3rd and have kept all my receipts to ad to her C.V per say.
I've added the RK chain and sprockets, alls balls and some triple tree bearings and factory honda wheel bearings which has improved the overal feel of the bike.
Purchased with full intention to chop her up a bit and spray her in dark blue and silver wings, chrome wheels etc but at her first track day had to many comments on her original tidiness to warrant sanding her down and spraying her.
Mite still do it one day but for now I'm happy :)
That's enough from me.. Here's the bike

Please vote for my '98 blade
 

Seems odd to be running for ROTM after voting for others for so long. Anyway, here is my 1998 CBR919 Blade which I bought about 4 weeks ago. I have added about 1000 miles to it since then so it now has 25,000 miles in total. Extras that have been fitted are full Yoshimura system, wavy discs, braided lines, double bubble screen. Apart from that it is completely stock.

I would really appreciate your vote.

Here's how to post full size photos:
Gat a Photobucket account (free) and upload you pic there. (Click upload and drag and drop it into the box.)
Next, open the pic in Photobucket. There will be a box on the right side of the page with a list of links.
Then, click on the link labled IMG code.(usually the bottom one of the 4). It will be copied.
Finally go to your post and paste it there.
Done.

Now, your bike is not a 929. They didn't come out until 2000, and it was fuel injected. In 98 they were still on the 900 platform, but called it a 919.

Thanks 74demon, I had the photobucket account but couldn't figure out the link. I had updated the bike to a 918 as soon as I realised it was wrong (oops) but you obviously got to see the unedited version. Hoping the photo improves my chances

Another photo of the Blade
 

Lost the muffler and passenger set up today. Looks a lot cleaner in the black now :)

The Blade has been at a Bike Show
 

Attachment 28769

My Blade has been on show at Billing Bike Bash this weekend. It was playing nice with all the lesser bikes. Had a bit of a hooligan moment and tried the 'Loudest bike' challenge. It managed 115db whereas the winner (on open pipes) had 124db

Took a quick vid at lunch time. Gives the general idea

Will give it a treat

Looks like I might win ROTM so going to give it a treat this weekend as I have been working away from home all week. Not sure what yet but a bit of pampering will be in order.
