Love the EVO!
I was delighted to see the article on the Honda Evo Blade in the March issue of CMM. The Evo Blade is such a rare bike that I have found that the majority of people do not even know it exists, I have even spoken to Honda dealers who did not know it had been produced. I was lucky enough to purchase one of these rare machines in 2011. The bike had only 450 miles on it when I purchased it, it has now only covered 923 miles. It seems that Ian Edmondson has been more fortunate than me in obtaining information regarding his Evo Blade. When I contacted both Honda UK and RS Performance in 2011, in an effort to obtain any information regarding the Evo Blade, Honda UK could not provide any information and RS Performance were unsure if they still held the details for the bikes they had built. Although, the guy I spoke to did mention he had a bag of numbered plaques for the top yokes, which you state have now been passed onto Ian. He did manage to put me in touch with another Evo owner. My intention has always been to try and set up a register of the Evo Blades still in existence; I have managed to account for nine of the bikes produced including my own. In an effort to trace any other bikes still out there, could you ask Ian if he is willing to correspond with me regarding any information he has from RS Performance, and if any of your readers own or know of any Evo Blades that could be added to the list..
