Would you be able to tell us how the Buell perform's against the Hornet. Would the rider of the Buell, or yourself, be able to test both back to back?

Fuel range, straight line performance, handling, ease of use, day to day living stuff would be nice too.


Be very grateful if you could post up some info regarding this.

The micron can looks lovely mate. I like the tail end conversion as well makes the bike a lot tidier, the only thing I'm not sure on is the headlight. It looks bare or something. Obviously a personal thing whether I like it or not doesn't matter Laughing I think a hugger would set the bike off Cool

She looks stunning anyhoo! Thumbs Up

I'm going to be brutally honest here and you love the bike so don;t bother rising up to my claims but I think the rear lights are very smart. However those front lights are so over-rated it's unbelievable. After owning a Bandit I know many owners who choose to put the bug eyes on their Bandits and I think it looks hideous. The only place twin headlights belongs is on a Speed Triple.

I also think the can looks a bit cheap, but I've never been a great fan of Micron Cans anyway. Smile

I like the bike though, Hornet in black is the best. Thumbs Up
