ACCESSORIES

Tasty picks from Honda’s ample official parts range. There are also three packs (sports, supersports, touring) with bulk-buy savings.

SEAT COWL KIT Part of the ‘decoration’ line. Gives racier look and discourages pillions. Simply clips in place of the rear seat. £195, though.

QUICKSHIFTER Make the Blade the same spec as rivals for £695. Not cheap, though they say that it ‘provides easy operation and comfort’. Nice.

12V POWER SOCKET Plug in heated kit or sat-nav, charge your phone, or maybe even fit a cigarette lighter. Generic bit, not Blade-specific. £95, please.
