I agree with Jim2 re: Hornet ergos, but a handle-bar change rectifies that issue.

Done 15k since August 05, spent a week touring 2up around the far north, even up to Cape Rienga, approx 2k in a week, no probs, no complaints from the back seat.
Take it to work every day, very comfortable on the commute. Still if you want to give it a thrash every now and then theres plenty there to give you your jollies

Jantar is possibly on to something with the V-Strom
They also do a 650 version (the DL650) which is highly rated brand new your looking at 12-13k
Depending on where you want to keep up with your mates on the thousands a medium to big dual purpose bike will have you passing them on the twisties, at the petrol stations and the speed traps.
Don't discount them before you have given them a go...

YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - CRC AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE CRC. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE

Are you any closer to deciding which bike you want yet or taken any out for a test ride?

No issues with mine. It' will pull from 20o0rpm, no glitches, in top gear.
The FI on my '05 Z750S is waaaaay better than my '04 R6, which was really snatchy from a closed throttle. I would suggest your mate either had a bad one or a shop tech didn't set it up right, or left his lunch in the airbox or something. 1st timem I've ever heard a whinge about Z750 FI.

Yeah I want an MV
Going to arrange test rides on Triumph Speed Four at Holeshot, Suzuki SV1000 and GSXR600 with Sarge and a CBR929RR, CB1300 with Mt Eden all hopefully next week. These should give me an indication of power/weight/comfort/horn etc.
Also keeping me eye on a 05 GSXR750 on Trademe $13k ono
Will also go to Mr Motorcycles tomorrow and look at a 05 ZX6R.

Excellent, sounds like you're gonna have a bit of fun testing all those bikes. It's always exciting choosing a new bike isn't it.
Are you going to sell your current Kawa?
Look forward to seeing your new bike anyway!
Immature and proud of it.
Of course we do.It's common knowledge that Suzuki riders need Viagra.
There's no way a heart will pump blood into something that big without it.
Speed doesn't kill people.
Stupidity kills people.
