For release next month. You get a limited edition Akrapovic end can and a standard blade in this scheme for your £13,299.

Doesn't quite look as good as the old scheme

I don't like the fake speed holes on the lower fairing.

Whats with the fake holes on the lower fairing? The original didn't have them...

I like the idea of it, but it doesn't suit the lines of the bike. I love the scheme on the old one as it suited it perfectly and the colours suited the times

Just shows how naive and not street smart I am.
I read "Urban Tiger" and think it's related to a Triumph Tiger motorcycle.

£436 more @ £13,735 gets you this with some goodies including a silencer thrown in:

Know what I would choose, and it don't look like a tiger!

Yuck. Just a marketing exercise looking for victims.

The original urban tiger scheme was so popular because the blade of that era was the fastest thing on the road. Sure, it was a little flighty but otherwise was awesome compared to anything else out there.

This is just a paintjob - a marketing exercise for the naïve. Yuck.

Always preferred this colour scheme myself:

Especially because my beloved dead CBR was in the same colours:

On a pre-2000 bike yeah, on a pointy 2014, naa.

[Joncrete Cungle]

Just wait for Honda to start doing the CB *ahem* R five hundred *ahem* R in the same paint scheme for an extra £400.

I guess that if they never sell one it'll prove it's the wrong thing to do but I bet they will, by the bucketful.

The one on my 600 isn't a perfect replica either but as long as the lines are there I think it looks cool more so on a Blade (especially yours with the red wheels and green hugger top box or not).

If you ever come to part with it, dibs
