Hey all,
Im looking at booking up my DAS after being on the L’s awhile, as soon as the L’s go so does my lil popper bike. Ive been having a good look around for a first big bike, Ive been adimeant about getting the R6 but now the CB600FA Hornet ABS is the one im having a really good think about. Just wondered on opinions or if anyone has one?.. Ive always been a Yamaha or Honda guy, as my motocross bikes are both by those two aswell.
Cheers,
Sir Yamalot
Can’t say I have much experience with ABS, but I’m having a great time on my Hornet and find it spirited enough without being too much to handle.
Welcome to the fold (hopefully)! 
Limited to Yamaha/Honda you’re sorta there.
But what about - Suzuki GSX F650, Kawasaki Z750, Triumph Street Triple 
La’la’la… im not listening! :D:D:D
I’ve got one of the new Hornets with ABS, great bike, light, quick and does everything it’s told to do. Motorway runs can be a bit of a problem from wind blast, staying above 80 for 20 mins or more can be pretty tiring. You can get a Honda fly screen but there very small and i cant se how they would make a difference, but Ermax make screens for the new Hornet which are bigger and look like they would do a much better job. Only other slightly negative side is they can be a bit juicy depending how aggressive your are with the throttle ( but who cares if it cost a little more to run when it gives you soooo much fun ). I found the ABS a good chioce as i’ve nearly come unstuck a few times and the ABS has been fantastic well worth the extra money:)
I used to have a hornet and really liked it - prefer the CBR riding position though and its easier to go faster because I dont feel the wind as much
