“Best all round bike ever..you can ride for miles and miles effortlessly or if you wish to mix it with the sports bikes you can.I've never been passed by any of the top bikes. Even Hyabusas!”
“what a bike surely a legend from one of the best motorcycle manufacturers in the
world great build quality an engine like a turbine, I have used this bike for going to work
going to bike races and touring and it has always left me wondering how can they make
a better on to replace it,
just turned 55,000 miles and never had a breakdown cant wait to next spring to get it
out onto clean roads if any one can recommend a better bike I am waiting”
“Nothing to add that's not been said many times before...this bike broke the mould. OK it doesnt have ABS or traction control but it's ultra reliable, I've had 4 and cover over 120K miles on them. If you convert to higher bars the comfort is much improved (less wrist strain) and Michelin PR3 or 4's are perfect.

“My Blackbird is a great bike. It's never given me any problems and is solid.
If it was still in production it would benefit from some of the modern stuff around now but in its time it was amazing.
Having said that, I still enjoy riding it and get a buzz every time.”
