    Honda Hornet 600s 1998 - 2003, faired and unfaired. Who's selling?

    Hey guys,
    Im in the market for a CB600 between 98 to 03, I would much prefer the unfaired models, I havnt put this in the WTB section as I have to wait for my insurance to clear and what not as my bike was Stolen last night, luckly recovered today, but was recovered from the harbor at the bottom of a steep bank, submerged in salt water BUT
    Once it goes through and every sorts itself out, I will be looking at buying asap as I need transport, I wanna know if anyone is selling one, or about to sell one,
    the budget wont be too big,
    High Km's arnt a huge problem preferably under 65,000 would be better, and in tidy form, stock would be nice also, means I can put my own touch on it, doesnt matter, Please PM me or post a comment here if you are thinking about/know of/ or you are selling one.
    Cheers guys.

    They weren't sold in NZ so any you come across are most likely imported from the UK. I've looked at a few and they've all been tatty and had nasty cheap suspension that when pushed feels like the frame is hinged.

    I wouldn't buy one but I am a picky bugger.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    Iv only seen the one Hornet 600 and that was Hayd3n's,
    which isnt at all that bad, I wouldn't hesitate in owning it,
    but his to his own,
    I had a VFR 400 NC30, and I was told they are horrible on your back, I will hate it because it will be to slow, my wrists will hurt due to the position, and I would get bored of it too soon,
    None of which was true.
    But I know what you are saying (sorry if that came across a bit rough, been a long one today haha)

    There's always exceptions to the rule.

    Would that not be "there are"?

    Why not? I was excited about this, to my knowledge there's = there is, in this case not used to refer to the plural "exceptions". "There is always exceptions to the rule" in my weak and feeble mind seems odd.

    Might be an idea to post up the budget you're looking at.
    And does it have to be a CB600?
