Thanks Tristan. Yes I will be a happy man...full of nervous energy but happy.
Havent rdden a big bike arounda decent corner yet. I remember riding a blackbird around a 75km/h corner thinking 'crap!!!...this is a bit different!'.

I see your old ride is already being referred to as the Hyobag.

Poor wee thing

**skelstar** · 15th February 2006, 10:50

Its been the Hyobag for ages (ask LBTW). Its a term of endearment.

WOW, That is a NICE looking Hornet

Hehe, I got a Hornet too and loved it, I don't mind you talk about the hornet/big bike at all :-)

Congrats, Skelstar !!!

Just make sure you ease into it, what with the massive power difference.
I did the same after being used to the NZ-250 and then going to the ZX-10.

Mate, I was changing my mind every day. Hadnt even talked/thought about the Hornet until I was riding home from a ride last Thursday night. I was going to by Test Pilot's black/orange GSXR600K4 or the blue ZX-6R off trademe (similar money) but had an epiphony. Basically for all the reasons above.
