But there are so many blades, the latest ones being sports bikes and two previous generations back becomes a sports tourer.
Supermoto something with a small 4 stroke engine...

I had a tuned VTR - loved it. Moriwaki cams and ti system, Maxton forks, Spondon rear end with a Fox shock, it was stupidly fast and agile. But Jesus, if you caned it you got less than 100 miles to a tank. Was huge fun tho.

I’m still not responsible enough for a supermoto. There is no other format of motorcycle that turns you into a gibbering twat as quickly. Insane fun when ridden insanely.
I reckon an older Blade is a nice sweet spot, they’re pretty comfy, superbly reliable, handle well and are immaculately finished. They also tend to be less thrashed than old 600 sports bikes.
VTR1000 worth a look for the twin experience but they’re not as premium and absolutely guzzle the juice.
