Hey mate.. Go the hornet's

If you want to have a look at mine check out my profile - have done a few mods - K7 GSX-R head light , carbon fibre engine covers, carbon fibre rear hugger, full stainless exhaust 2 mufflers ( loud as hell with out silencers ) Oxford carbon bar ends.
Aftermarket rear end ( dont no what its called ) but entire ass of it is differnt from any hornet.

Get it back from the painters any day now so should be good, thinking about gettting the rims painted and pinstriped but see what happens. Thinking about getting the seat retrimed and made a bit cooler.

but yes check out the above posts links for some idea's

Have you got any pictures??

Well mate, you are in the place for king of bling things! Theres quite a few spiffy things you can get for you ride. A bit change would be to go for twin cans, minor but cosmetic ones would be changing the headlight set up, custom levers, probolts and all the myriad of options!

Good to see another Hornet rider buzzing about! :niceone:

Just remember, when you find a source of Hornet bling, you must share the love! And be prepared to become our contact man to arrange shipments! :rofl:

All good!

sure guys... no problem about it...first thing first have to locate some sources around here... but i think it will be a bit pricey to buy things here... first thing is the twin cans... it's just a slip on type... even us can put it up... but it will cost us a lot of money... dont know the currency there but here it's 100,000 yen for the bnew type... that's moriwaki type (jap mods) and some parts too... i found some handle bars... that is convertible type... you can make the hornet look like sports type bars..(600cc type handle bars) and some monoshocks ohlins type...(almost every parts of the 600cc hornet is compatible on the 250...just the engine size and the cc are not the same... that's all) for now i am looking for some rear huggers and some 2nd hand cans... that's all for now... and some sliders lolz...

till next time guys...i'll update everytime a have some new inputs... ok...

more HP to hornet riders...

thanks for the topics... and hope i could get some things there... lolz

till next
