I owned a honda hornet I was actually a fz lover before the hornet launched and believe me if I chosen other bike inspite of the hornet I would haved upset because my hornet is damn awesome, its looks like a beast, its perform like a beast and guys dont believe the comment that bike have low pickup or problems they is a awesome pickup and no problem my hornet gives me a mileage or 35, 40 coz I drive very ruff and the important think of the bike I love is when the bike get warm up or heat the sound of the bike changes and guys believe me its sounds like super bike in higher rpm iam loving it
