CB900 Hornet

Nope, just got the un-faired version. Was had for a good price as well. Rapt with it so far, very very smooth and effortless to ride. The bulk didn't worry me to much as I'm a bit of a fat bastard myself. To be honest once underway the weight isn't noticed and it feels very well balnced.

Cheers, Jeff.

Yeah I had a demo ride on a Hornet 900 today and it was awesome! I am 6ft and 100kg and I found the bike was a very good fit. Very comfy riding position (although I would probably fit a small screen for high-speed riding), and the acceleration from the mid-range tuned old Fireblade engine is great! Made my 250 twin Suzuki feel like a scooter in comparison. I am very seriously thinking of upgrading to a Hornet now, especially at the price they are...

Well done, they are great bikes and there's no end to the mods you can do to personalise them, which is good fun in itself! Good 'do anything' bikes too. Go for it!! Oh, and WELCOME!!!
