Here's my new bike - Hornet F6 model. It's brand new (pre-registered, last of the old shape) so only had 1 mile on it. I traded in my Z1000 for it and picked it up on saturday :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen: I absolutely love it :D

Very nice indeed! I do like the round headlight style naked bikes of old - everything these days is all angles...

Is there an exhaust in your plans?!

It won't stay that clean for long!

There could well be ;)

First off is a hugger to keep the muck off the back shock and some crash bobbins. Oh and a set of CRG levers to make the clutch lever closer to the bars for my dodgy hand, not because they're posh :cool:

This is true. That's after polishing it when I'd ridden it from the shop - it was reet grubby even after only a few miles, the poor thing :p I'll do my best though. I've promised myself I'll look after it cos I've owned anything new before :D

"Old style"?

More like best ever style Hornet. Sweet.

Had a lend of an early 16" wheeled one. Smooth as a babies bottom, but sounded like a mad thing when revved and cos its naked it feels FFFFAAAAASSSST!!!!.

Does the petrol cap still come away from the tank? Drove me nuts that.

Fireblade engine.

Then turbo.


In fact, you could use the MASSIVE space freed up by the stock howitzer as space for water-alcohol injection setup. Muchos boostos.
