    Hornet 250 - 2006, well looked after

    Sadly selling my Hornet 250. Awesome bike, really invokes some special fizzy feelings when I ride it. I've got my full, and I haven't yet needed a reason to upgrade to a larger bike. Keeps up with the big boys in the corners, no worries. Has been fastidiously looked after by myself. Reason for selling is that our car needs replacing, and I want to focus more on my mountain biking.

    Just had valve clearance check done (all nicely in tolerance), carb sync and clean, and new oil and filter. I've changed oil and filter every 5000kms with good quality semi-synth.

    - Neptune Exhaust, amazing noise
    - 5000kms from new Hornet 600 rear shock, beats the under sprung 250 shock any day
    - Forks tuned for my weight (75kgs)
    - 5000kms from new front brake disk, front Brembo master cylinder and braided line (all DOT standard of course)
    - 500kms old Conti Sport Attack 2 rear, 1500kms old Conti Sport Attack 1 front - amazing tyres, around $260 a piece
    - Slightly geared down. Chain and sprockets around 10000kms old

    Always kept in garage, cleaned and rarely ridden on wet days. Have receipts for all work done. Is in great mechanical condition. Starts first time, and no problems getting through the gears quickly. Previous owner (my boss actually) had it fall over in the wind, slight scraping the engine cover.

    Test rides only if cash given first. Let me know if you need any more information.

    Won't trade for chips. 4k ono
