Here is the view of the other side...

And of course, I couldn't resist but sit on it when I came home...

Now it's very rare I ever say this but I am extremely jealous of my Dad. Embarassed

It looked tiny until you got on it for the some perspective in the last picture. Im not a big fan of anything other than full fairings but that looks pretty nice I must admit. Plenty of bits sticking out to keep clean!

Prefer the fully naked ones, but the colour makes up for that. Cool Laughing

Looks very tidy, bet he'll have a lot of fun with it. I want one.

If it were me though, that fairing and those indy's would be off in 5 minutes. Wink

I went pillion last night and the way your leg positions over the exhaust means that you don't get a warm leg from the exhaust at all. Smile

The hornets exhaust doesnt actually get that hot cu of the air gap between the shiny bit and the black bit.
The bike looks great, i almost got a S model myself but i fell in love with the yellow ones and they didnt do a faired yellow model Sad
Just one thing, sugest to you dad he gets a hugger for it, the shock is very exposed on the hornet this will prevent damage from road mank. It also makes the rear look a lot better.
Tell him to get on the nest and talk to Jester who will be able to do some deals on Pryamid stuff!
Have a good X-mas
