Honda Hornet CB600 2008-2012

[Vorno]

Hello all, I am exploring the option of buying a second-hand hornet.. especially since Auckland is out of stock!

I don't want a bike that has been dropped/damaged! Looking for a well looked after 2008-2012 bike

Price $8,000-9,000 ono

Cheers.

EDIT: Black only <--- should have mentioned that earlier.

You tried that site called TradeMe: http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...-412917172.htm

Otherwise, have you considered CB900? Older, but reliable.

Edit: Colour is always helpful aye?

Sarcasm gets you no where mate, I check Trademe everyday... the last thing I want is people linking me trademe auctions.

I am particularly after a black model... I don't want the colour of baby-milk vomit mixed with blood on my bike for me to stare at every day.

Stop picking on the n00b, licking the mod's arse and becoming aroused at the sight of a Honda thread Homo.

I'm just worried that he may not be ready for the full HONDA experience yet, after all you meet the nicest people on a honda ...............

Indeed I am, although I should have mentioned colour on the original post.

Shocking discovery, the CB600 Hornets are no longer being imported at the $12k price. Honda has apparently upped it to $16,000. Pure bollocks.
...so now there is only the option of a NC700S (Commuter) or a NC700X (Adventure) if someone wants a new naked Honda at the same price-range.

Shit the bed! I've check their website and you are right. Not a tasty looking naked to be seen (just those 700 things ..... not my cuppa).

What happened to the CB1000r?

Honda need to get their shit sorted. They have the ultra sports bikes but the rest are kind of ......... blandish. They need to start innovating again and bring some exciting designs to the market to get sales.

It may be worth ringing around the honda dealers - you might pick up a 600 Hornet at a deal if it has been sittign on the floor for a while.
