I thought the lights were lower and closer to the ducts.

I challenge you to find a more fun bike to ride.

Aren't you forgetting:

   

And it's not a sports bike either!  You'd have to strap a couple together for middle-weight...

Surprised no ones said it yet, but what about a bandit?

It's not comfort I am looking for necessarily just a cheaper fun riding experience.

I know you haven't lived a sheltered biking life Neil so please tell me that's a joke.

Looks like someone has had the lights off it and put the bracket back on upside down, or done it on purpose to close the gap to the clocks.

Fugly bike both ways!

EVERY time I have riden Amy's 125 I have got off it grinning me tits off...it really is such a hoot to ride, and a real refreshing change from big capacity bikes.  Sure it lacks power, but it is sooooo light and flickable.  Not every ride needs to be doubling the speed limit everywhere.

I am infact thinking of adding one to my stable to commute on and generally hoon around on at a pathetically low cost.

I can think of many alternatives as cheap that would be more fun - most powered by 2
Strokes.

Well, don't keep them all a secret...do tell

This is the first reasonable alternative to the Hornet I have found (road legal, good nick, not silly money etc)

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KTM-520-EXC-ORANGE-SUPERMOTO-/111234816828?pt=UK_Motorcycles&hash=item19e61c9b3c

I do wonder whether it would be a better bike to own for a Sunday blast. Sure as hell no good for touring and long trips!!

Best to try a  moto before you buy one.
That 520 is old technology and he is asking top money for it.
