or if your tight just get the own lable ones (im a tight git when it comes to drugs), normal sold as decongestants but the chemical you need to look for is Phenylephrine Hydrochloride awesome at stopping your nose from running.

I am a ruined man. How on earth can I go back to the SV after riding the CBR? The suspension, handling, power, brakes are superb and I am just blown away at how good it is.

There are only a couple of downsides for me, it isnt that easy to put luggage on it (not impossible though); the position is quite cramped when doing lots of filtering; and the speedo isnt that easy to read (which is annoying cause I often find that I am going quite fast when arriving at speed camaras), but as a bike for riding...WOW.

I think that the SV still has its place for the commute to work but this is just head and shoulders above the SV. What I am hoping is that getting more experience on the naked Hornet and the CBR will make my riding cornering etc better.

Was glad to see the back of my 36k bandit loaner - pulled away from the the shop like a complete novice due to different bike nerves and a virtually seized clutch cable & talking of seized the brakes made the SV's look good....

and you had to ride along with your arms stuck up in the air....

and I kept stubbing my toe on the ground every time I stopped cos the seat was so much lower.

Still - first loan bike I've ever had.
