Well have to agree with NOMIS ,,, they don’t give problems ,,,, little head scratching sessions ,,,, maybe Ha Ha , Thanks to Gijoe who calmed me down with my little " head scratching session"
As you predicted ,,,, running sweet as now thanks again

No problems, little ol'hornet probs are my speciality at times! Nothing that some TLC can't cure and making sure that the basics are kept up to date with!

And its nice to have the two brother praked side by side in the gargre again! Gotta luv 'em Hornets!

Hi I've just bought a Hornet and I'm loving it but I'm a bit disappointed with the brakes. Anyone know of any upgrades (preferably cheap) I can do to increase stopping power? Also the front end feels a little too soft I was thinking of getting progressive fork springs but if anyone knows of a cheaper way to fix these problems it would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Get them cleaned out, re-bled and put new EBC sintered pads in them. I have no issues with my brakes, enough power to pull stoppies and lock the front wheel.

Re: forks - I found the same thing. I stacked mine out with a shim, but need to replace springs eventually. If you come across a good/cheap set let me know.
