couple pics of my new headlight ive bought for my hornet
really didn't like the look of the original light looked abit old for my liking so found a clear glass new headlight and fitted it up and i think it makes it look alot better.
Hope you guys like

cheers

yeah i like the look of the twin lights but didnt like the thought of just all the wiring hanging out the back because i doubt there is much room in them to store the wiring

Nice bike. Have you ever ridden it restricted? I'm thinking of getting one when I pass my test, although I'm 17 and English which makes my choice rather limited.

Tut! It should be restricted! Mine was, took the washer out back in July and it made quite a bit of difference, now it feels like it accelerates through 80-90 and I more often find myself on the ton mark.

I thought Hornets were 600cc. Didn't know there were 250 varieties. What bhp does it have?

They are grey imports...

250 has around 35bhp I am lead to believe. Great fun bikes, so satisfying to give it a good thrashing and still not be in license loosing speeds.

If you're asking why being English is a disadvantage, it is because of my age; I need to wait 2 years after passing my test until I can ride any bike. I'm limited to 33bhp until that day. This limits my choice quite a bit.

Looks way better that, i HATE the twin headlights, but thats because 5 of my mates have them on their hornets/bandits, they just look generic and boring to me now.

This is the coolest hornet headlight ever [/bias] Thumbs Up Laughing

If by 'he' you refer to me, then no I did not realize. I was referred here from Reddit, which is predominantly American. I have to keep making it clear that I'm English. Thanks for clearing that up anyway.
