If I ever say about getting a BSA please talk me out of it. I don't want to end up like these silly old feckers.

As long as the dog doesn't eat them obviously

Hes blown a seal

Genuine question, why don’t you do the job yourself?

I don’t think Honda claim any extra from the sport pack equipped Hornets. Like you say they look and sound much better.

Yeah that was part of the reason I chose the Delkevic can. I would have loved a SC but they are very expensive for a better noise. Circa £900 whereas the Delkevic looks like and sounds like for £270 and has a decent reputation. . At the end of the day for a real improvement in actual performance it would have to be a full de-cat system with a remap. I’m not sure I am really interested in doing that. I have never thought, in the two years I’ve had the Hornet, that it didn’t have enough power. If I genuinely wanted to go faster I would buy a real sport bike.

Brownie points coming your way

I don't think so, I just like things to look and be right. I think what was annoying me was the rear calliper was still the original gold and the front ones were black. If they were all the same colour I probably wouldn't have bothered.

Maybe All rebuilt and ready to go on. Probably won’t swap them over until next week now, don’t fancy stripping the bike before my weekend’s commute. Don’t want to be trouble shooting without sleep. Just in case.

Bugger, sad news.

Sorry boss . I'll get my coat

More cleaning, almost ready to rebuild. Managed to get most of the smoo off the callipers onto me. Therapeutic to do though.

Tighter rear end

Perfect for Marcey.

The Harley rider was an interesting fella. https://fb.watch/Bk7UHYmUhN/

Well I fitted a UK legal Delkevic titanium S-Oval end can on my Hornet today. I am pretty pleased with it to be honest, sounds good, fair bit deeper but not obnoxiously loud. I don't think it makes much if any difference to power but it sounds faster . Original end can was 7kg the new one is 1.45kg.

I'm not the one trying to convince everyone I am taller than I actually am. Also I don't have a Busa.

My mate who is short arse rides an Indian as that is the only thing he can flat foot @ 5’ 6”

Look at the thumbnail, bloody great turbo on the back of that Harley.

Oh Dear

Awesum.

Well I suppose that would make it reliable

Come on the 125 dropped a gear at the beginning of the vid. If it was a Gixxer 1000 it would have been off like a stabbed rat. .

Pretty sure it was an older Suzuki GSXR125R with the maximum 15 BHP. Pretty sure its the same bike as one of Shadows mates has.
