The British Hornet was 6649 pounds sterling, so this has more bits and bobbles. Maybe a grands worth. That makes it around 11000 dolla US, which we all know wouldnt fly againts SS that ring in aout the same...

Eh.......All this "two dozen edges on each fairing piece" is getting played out IMO

I personally think this bike looks better than the 600RR. The last good-looking 600RR was the 05, imo. After 05 they got those buck-toothed headlights and the lower farings that look like they're missing a piece.

Those lower fairings have become much more modest on the more recent models. It may surprise you how much more they cover

There needs to be more "street" bikes than "race" bikes. Sorry but I'm not "racing" to work everyday so spending the doe on a "race" bike is a waste for me.
