New Hornet

[Mikey3]

Saturday night I slipped off my bike on a roundabout near home, the bike would've been fine had it not slid front on into the curb and bent the frame & cracked the engine on the rear mount :'(. I was devastated.
Yesterday found this little gem, 9998 miles when I picked it up, CF side panels (£95 a side), Hagon shock, Preload adjusters fitted in the forks, with spring upgrade, venom race can, rearsets, belly pan, HEL hoses. I'm quite impressed. The paint on the engine needs a touch up but that's no hardship, I just feel I got this for the wrong reasons.

anyways, some pictures.

Paris told me about this Mike. You nutter. Were any parts salvageable from the yellow one?

You realise our bikes are no longer a rainbow. Now you and Paris simply merge into one sad blue blob.

We need photos Mike. I'll be up next week so will take a look. Would love a go on a hornet to see what a powerful naked was like!

Oh and sort out that headlight, it's massive!

If you do decide to get rid of the OE headlight, I'll buy it.

Nice, but I don't like the hugger.

[anthony_r6]

Do you still have your other Hornet? The one you crashed?

Any parts you'd care to part with?

Doubt I'd get rid of the standard headlight Garth, Sorry, will let you know if anything changes though!

AnPhonEh I still have it, its mostly fine bar the rad, right front engine mount on the frame, and the small crack on the rear right top engine mount. What did you have in mind?

I'd have to have a look at mine and refresh my memory.

What year was the crashed Hornet? (98? Seeing it in your signature)

I could do with headlight/indicator mounts -
I could also use a 17" front wheel and brake discs
I'm also looking for fairings, if they're not cracked
Original undertay and number plate mount

Shotgun the tank and all the bodywork, pleeeeease.

I'll also have the downpipes.

Plus you're local. No reason why I can't come round and help you dismantle it if you want.

[garth]

[anthony_r6]

A fight to the death? I guess you just want them more. Best I could stretch to is a fight to the unconscious. The fairings are not a huge deal for me anyway, just want some spares to get sprayed.

So if you have 'em...

Headlight Brackets.
Undertray and taily tidy.

I'd be interested in.

[Mikey3]

I don't recall saying my bikes up for salee?! The front end my dads having so stuffs forward is off, I'm gonna keep the bodywork in case of emergency or in case I want some custom shit. Probs gonna keep the downpipes too, I'm being stingy , as ill sell it and end up needing something, roles would be reversed .
A 17 inch wheel I do have! I even have the spacers for the discs too, and seeing as I'm personally a 16" fan, I don't think I'll want it . Got a spare 16" too, complete with tyre, and a continental road attack should anyone be interested.

I'm sorry guys, but I'd rather keep hold of certain stuff, I'm sure you all understand my reasons!

I want the tank more than the headlight, mines got big old stone chips in it, right on the top.
