So I managed to sell my Hyo today. Leaving me with a half built vfr400 project in the garage and nothing to ride. What a day for riding it was too!
I've been going round in circles trying to decide what to get next and after all the deliberating, I've landed (at least for now) back between the Hornet 919 or a Bandit 1200. Whatever one comes up first at the right price, year, mileage, etc.
Having not ridden either before, I am wondering if anyone out there can advise me on any common faults, weaknesses to look out for when inspecting one and also if you think I should trust my gut (or Butt when riding one) or if I should pay for at least a compression check before committing to one?
Also, if anyone in Auckland maybe feels charitable enough to give me a go on their Hornet or bandit to give me some reference point.......
Unfortunately I can't go blag any test rides yet from a bike shop as my full licence cbta doesn't kick in until December :-(
