Cheeky git :roll:

I should point out that my recent 3pts/£60 were earned in the cage in broad daylight.

It least I go out in the dark, unlike certain BMW riders (who shall remain nameless) :lol:

05 model. looks the same judging by the description. But I really struggle to read them, maybe I need a new visor?

Dunno how good the clocks are as two of the bulbs arent working and as I've crushed the speedo cable that doesnt work all the time either.

I know you will all start saying why dint you get SV, but I just like the Hornet- you do need help -. As a matter of interest are the SV's clocks any good in the dark?

Eat more carrots or get an SV surely no one could love a hairnet that much? You could? Could ya, really? Nah, don't believe it!:lol:

All you need to see is a needle whizzing round that circular dially thingy 8)

The thing you constantly go off of :lol:

Perhaps the reason you can not see the clocks is the same reason for buying a
bike that looks like a Hornet in the first place. ie. Your eyesight is very very bad. :wink:

If you're finding it really bad, maybe an aftermarket option like a Veypor might be your solution- not cheap, but very clear.

Yeh, i cant read my speedo/tacho at night either.

It would help if i changed the bulbs which have all gone.

Just buy a small torch. It's cheaper :D
