First ride in on the Hornet

Off-topic
1

well first of all it took me 15mins more! :blink:

because i went past work as i didnt want to stop and went round embankment :w00t:

so much better than the CBF… more nibble and better brakes :wink:

i do miss my topbox tho :ermm:

bring on lunch time! :cool:

rofl, that sounds like something I’d do. I often have an extra lap or 2 of Regents Park when I ride in to work :smiley:

I’ll keep an eye out for you on The Outer Circle and see if I can sneak up on you and WOOP!!!:stuck_out_tongue:

Heh! Excellent - glad you’re enjoying it! Make the most of the weather today, dude…

I live on a lovely twisty road; I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve genuinely forgotten to turn into my drive because I’ve been having so much fun. :smiley:

5

OI OI!! She might get excited! :smiley:

6

You’ve been stung by the Hornet Pan! One of the funnest best bikes ever in my opinion. I have a soft spot for the Hornet! :smiley:

7

side-effects include:

excess drooling (on the bike)
aching of the cheeks (from grinning)
sore throat (from screaming ‘OHHHH YEAHHHH!!’)

:smiley: :hehe:

So where are the pics?! You can’t come in here singing your new bikes praises and not bring pics!

Congratulations on your new ride…sounds like you are enjoying it in FULL!

13

Wouldn’t be the first time you bugger! :stuck_out_tongue:

14

You are really making me want to test ride a Hornet! :cool:

Do you have the “big” hornet or the small one?

15

Glad you’re enjoying it dude. Love mine, I like it much better than my old SV650.:smiley:

16

the 600 (small :blink: for a CBRXXX rider :stuck_out_tongue: ) one

had a courtesy hornet once when my cbf got bashed up. i didn’t want to get off after my first ride. have fun with it.

I work on the embankment too, 80 Strand. I was looking for bike parking bays, know any good places to park the bike? I’ve been afraid to park it in public places so far incase I come back to find someone dropped it. Do you know any good places to park since you work on the Embankment too?

I love my Hornet, straight out of the crate it is a great bike. I would personally say a classic. Improve the suspension a bit, lightly tune it and it punches way above it’s weight. Out on the twisties I often find sports bikes holding me up.
