The riders always detract from Quacka looks though.

haven't had time to mount them on yet... but bikes always look fat with big panniers on anyway... unless its a FJR1300 thing.

Well if you want to save on rear tyres then I suppose you have a good point there Korn

You know you dont just have to wear out the middle bit on your tire either, thats why the tread pattern goes around the tire about another 2 inches.... you can use that too and make it last a bit longer :P

I thought it was only me ol bandit that was bad at wearing the sides out before the middle (my only real complaint about the bike). Havn't ridden the Busa enough to notice. Thought it mustave had something to do with NZ roads and a heavy bike. So it happens on 3/4 bikes as well. Think were on to something here..

Hornet mate - much more nimble ,quicker ,sportier (if your into a more sportier bike than id go for the hornet ) good touring range ,comfortable and tons of mods you can do to em to individualize.

My hornet is up for sale ,is a real nice bike to ride mate ,have a look at my signature for a look at it if your like.
