Funny, because here we can't ride anything over 250CC  but Guys do register Bikes like CB400, Hornet 600 as 250CC bikes Stupid Cops think those Bikes 250CC so they check Licenses and let them go  sometimes things get nasty..! primmer671 wrote: hmm im the hannspree hornet guy just made my 250 a hannspree look hornet  , gettin my bellypan sorted and attached . made my 600 exhaust a stubby and put on 250. might look at repainting the bike because i came off and dented tank . fill it and repaint during. here are some links if you fancy a nosey. exhaust short clip of sound: http://s1126.photobucket.com/albums/l62 ...

Solved my HID Problem. bought a new ballast and my bulb was working fine..... but they had new 10,000K Xenon bulb so i asked how much was it? they said only 2000LKR w00t! it has proper hi-low technique, very legal i was impressed so i bought it too new bulb and new ballast back in my beauty. same 35W Bulb. they said ballast unit should be hidden, don't let water on it then it will bless long life and always protect the Bar code on it lol because old ballast's bar code was scratched Pics coming soon

Yesterday was Pay day.... and today I got some New rubber for the Hornet. Dunlop GPR 200. Ive been running on bridgestones and the new Dunlop feels so good. Getting used to the new tire coz the previous one was dead bald with thread starting to show up, lucky i never skidded anyway the weird feeling is when I take a corner it feels like im tipping off, it tilts on its own.. May be its because my previous tire was flat in the center i dunno.... gotta break it in!
