I know you lot hate the factory street fighter (especially Honda's), but I have spent a wee bit of time, money and TLC on my little Hornet 600.
Mike at OCD Racing in Melbourne has looked after it for me.
I have done: Mini indicators, shortened tail guard, 45 tooth rear sprocket, DID X ring chain, BT014's, Low braced drag bars, K&N filters and a modified can.
Ran a best time of 12.2 @ 111mph at Heathcote, 2 weeks ago. ;)
Go easy on me, I'm a newby! :D
Some pics for you 'hardcore' Suzuki folk to look at!
Ride safe
Daz.

WELCOME m8 ...lookin good...
They ain't drag bars mate, they're flat bars
Drag bars are dead flat, ie can't brace them.
Good start, but keep going.

Yeh, my bad..... Sorry, they are low, braced bars.....!
Yeh, that's me on the blue Hooner.
Looking forward to maybe catching up with any vic members and going for a cruise.
Ride safe.

Welcome, neat bike deafwish. Just don't do what Rapid Bikes did and put the ugliest fairing known to mankind on it.... [xx(]
Cheers Rich

Yeh, Rich, WTF is with that fairing.....?
Ruined a totally good bike IMHO.
It just proves something for nothing is not always good. I reckon Rapid Bikes hit someone up for free bike bit and that someone got theirs back but donating that abortion.... :D

what was the orriginal thread topic about again???
OH! thats right.. deafwish was sharing HIS bike. well thanks for sharing deafwish, its a nice ride you have there congrats and keep us updated on mods progress
cheers.joe.
Come on Razor be nice. While you unsuccessfully disengaged your neighbours 240 volt man trap thus causing a fire :D:D I was punching on with a 'local' on my day off because he felt it necessary to tell Maria to go and get fucked. When I had him on the ground and was restricting his airway he told me I was killing him. I assured him that I was trying to do just that....
Now could you kindly put some betadine on my knuckles, elbows and knees :(
Cheers Rich

I dont mind the look of the Hornet- Would look Trick as with a seat unit say from an 05 CBR1000RR. Really make that cool shapped tank stand out.

+1..... It could also use smaller speedo & tacho. Looks sweet though!
BOHEMION
30-05-2006, 07:51 PM
Yeah there look the goods, Only concern about body parts with those is choosing a bellypan. Some look dog disgusting while others are OK and ive seen some which are trick, I rekon the Tank is what sets the Hornet off, followed by a cool eat unit/exhaust set up then maybe a belly pan

im with ya on the speedo+tach
thats one thing that i never really liked on the SV

Hey mono, so where are you from? if thats not an inane question.
BOHEMION
30-05-2006, 07:54 PM
Yeah? that old skool speed/tach would go fuggin great with some twin polished head lightss, kinda equal up the front, but remove/relocate the Horn.
monogone
30-05-2006, 07:56 PM
The instruments stand out like dogs balls... getting a micro unit would really clean up the look. I do agree with Bohemian though, I really like the look of the CBRR seat unit & underseat pipe! Maybe brace the swingarm & polish (or powdercoat some high lustre colour!)

mono, that Hornet looks sweet!
Doesn't look like the CBR600 engine though. Don't really know what the fcuk it is...?
WTF is a can of Red Bull doing strapped to the radiator.....?
Love the USD forks and what looks like Yamaha's calipers.
You guys rock at spamming threads! lol!

The yellow hornet would look tonnes better with a raised tail on it.
Its the 900 isnt it? motor looks the same as mine.
Razorback
27-07-2006, 09:52 AM
The yellow HORNet is really nice. Im getting to like the 1300's too, lots of potential there.
deafwish
27-07-2006, 12:22 PM
Razor.
I too, like the 1300, but I hate the shock setup on the rear!
Fugly as hell! They do have some serious grunt though! I've seen a stock CB1300 do a roll on wheelie, in 3rd!
