XJ is gone
New bike next week
Not a kwaka, but not a Hon....on...hon...n...either
Must admit I quite liked the Hornet though, top bike let down only by caustic sales methods of the dealer I visited. Z750 would have been my second choice between the two, only because I think the seat on the Hornet was a bit more...well there was just more of it I guess.
Anyhow, next weekend can't come fast enough...

You didn't buy the blue SV at Ipswich Suzuki did you? The one with the trick dash gauges? Good choice either way! Went riding end of last year with an old guy on a SV...the front wheel hardly touched the deck....

Pity we never got around to the 'crusty old shaft-driven tourers' ride.

SVs sound great with race cans. Better than a Hornet.
Enjoy

should be a good thing for commuting and the odd weekend fang about the place without attracting too much attention.
Probably felt like a racebike after the xj congrats.
