What can i expect from 33bhp hornet 600

[Hello there mandem]

im going to get a hornet in the new year after i pass my test, what speed can i expect from the bike?

Probably expect around 100 flat out with your chin on the tank, a few seconds knocked off 0-60. Braking and handling will be exactly the same.

Fuel economy probably won't be much different (i got around £12/13 to around 100 miles on the bandit 4 restricted to 33hp)

I get a indicated (on speedo) 110mph out of my 250 hornet, however that was on a private road so I don't know what I'd get on a public road.

Still really good fun bikes (mine is the nearly the same as the oldest styling hornet, seen as the 250 was made before the 600 and the 900), I will be happy to keep mine for the two years, nearly one year down.

Although I am tempted with an xr400 or similar off-roader...

100mph on the clocks and probably and around 7seconds to 60. But it will run out of puff at about 80.

why didn't you just leave it unrestricted

[nick606]

Because its best to not to try and handle to much to soon.

[Hello there mandem]

are the police hot on unrestricted bikes? I mean if i were to not get it restricted would i be found quite quickly? whats your experiences, have you ever had a summons for a dyno test, and got away with it by restricting it befor or something.

"this is a scenario"

[thefallenange...]

dunno depends another post code lottery.

To me it's not worth it and it's better off tagging onto an MOT test at the very least.

By the time you get a rolling road out or swipe the bike it's not worth it money wise. Keep yourself out of sight and it will 99% be out of mind. Been pulled by rozzers and they didn't ask about a restriction so it's just luck.

Don't do 90mph+ and you *shouldn't* get caught. But then again nothing in life is a cast iron guarentee.
