Advantages: Low cost Brand new, Best looking Retro

Disadvantages: Fuel tank range

I bought my Hornet straight after passing my test and have since don 17,000 miles on it. (£3800 brand new OTR) - Great deal!

I still love it to this day and have found it great fun as well as reliable and I get lots of comments on what a nice bike it is.

Like most people, I find the fuel tank range a bit limiting and being a retro bike the wind at 90mph+ can be a bit much. Luckily our laws prevent us doing that speed.

Since I have had it, I have only had to replace the usual things. Tyres, Chain and Sprockets, 1 fork seal (stone chip).

One thing I would highly recommend is a rear hugger. I never got one and my rear shock has become very badly worn/rusted. I kick myself to this day over that. But never mind.

If you're looking for your first bike this is a great machine to go for. But I know lots of experienced riders also love the Hornet 900.
