You might not know this if your hornet came with aftermarket exhausts but i've always wondered how comfortable it is for a pillion on a standard hornet with those exhausts seemingly so close to them.

I envision pillions burning their legs getting on and off, or is this just not the case?

Its the 01 model but i dont think there is any real difference.

yeah the hornets are easy to change bits about on for example changing the rear lights makes the bike look so much better great bike.

the exhaust didnt seem to bother the one person iv had on it and to be fair no-one is allowed on back now because the cowling is well fixed on after it came off mid acceleration, which wasnt cool, so thats it for that lol.

and i do agree that the red things on the heel plates are absolutely rubbish, hopefully to be rectified after christmas when i can afford some Hornet Cup Rearsets for it, give me a bit more on corners aswell and again theres no passenger pegs on those : )

You gonna do the double head light mod? I cant decide whether I like the single or double on the hornet more, they both look fantastic

I'd imagine a multi-million pound company like Honda would have thought of that and made the exhaust out of a material that doesn't conduct heat very well....

I'd expect it to be warm at the most after a couple of hours ride.

Bike looks very nice judderman, i agree with the USD forks it'll make the bike drop into the corners a lot easier.

I think the single headlight looks much better than the twin ones on a Hornet. Looks very good with the single seat and bellypan.

The standard can has a heat shield on it. In the limited amount of time I had mine fitted, I don't remember it getting hot at all. Even my Micron race jobby doesn't seem to get very warm.

Sweet looking bike dude, thats what I wish mine looked like!
Where did you get the bellypan from? I had one on mine but it was crap and only covered the front of the down pipes a tiny bit.

With regards to the exhaust and heat, as Dom said, the standard can has a heat shield on it. My Scorpion can doesnt but it doesnt get that hot anyway and I venever had complaints from pillions.

I was going to say, how the fuck did I miss this thread?! Shocked

But quite clearly, the sexiest Hornet in this thread is this one.
