Latest Updates
Tuesday, 07 November 2023 12:02 AM The 2024 Honda CB1000 Hornet is set to debut with a powerful engine derived from the 2017 CBR1000RR Fireblade, producing over 148 horsepower and more than 100 Nm of torque. The bike features a new twin-spar steel frame, LED projector-style headlights, and an innovative air intake system. I think this combination of power and design will make it a standout in the market.
Tuesday, 07 November 2023 12:32 AM Honda has revealed that the CB1000 Hornet will come with three switchable ride modes, an assist and slipper clutch, and Honda’s HSTC traction control system. The bike also includes a 5-inch TFT screen with smartphone connectivity and radial four-pot brakes gripping 310mm rotors. This tech package should enhance the riding experience significantly.
Monday, 25 September 2023 07:12 PM The new CB1000 Hornet boasts a Showa SFF-BP fork and a dual-sided swingarm with a Showa monoshock, providing advanced suspension capabilities. The bike’s design includes a small headlight cowl and forward-jutting panels to smooth airflow and direct air towards the intakes. I believe this attention to detail will improve both performance and aesthetics.
Friday, 07 July 2023 10:04 AM Honda’s CB1000 Hornet is expected to hit the market at the end of 2024, with initial availability speculated to be around March 2024. The bike will be offered in three colors: Grand Prix red, matte iridium gray metallic, and pearl glare white. I think the color options will appeal to a wide range of buyers.
Friday, 07 July 2023 02:18 AM The CB1000 Hornet features an air intake system with three louvres to ensure smooth airflow and protect the air filter from rain and spray. This design not only enhances performance but also provides a more audible intake sound for the rider. This innovative solution is a notable highlight of the bike.
Friday, 07 July 2023 05:32 AM The bike will have full LED lighting and a 5-inch TFT dash with phone connectivity via Honda’s RoadSync app. The combination of modern electronics and powerful engine makes it a compelling choice for riders looking for both style and performance. I think the LED lighting will add a sleek touch to the bike’s design.
Friday, 07 July 2023 07:54 AM The CB1000 Hornet’s engine is retuned from the 2017 CBR1000RR, offering a significant boost in power compared to its predecessor. This, along with the new frame and suspension, suggests a more agile and powerful riding experience. I believe this retuning will make the bike more appealing to performance enthusiasts.
Friday, 07 July 2023 07:08 AM Honda has not yet announced the pricing for the CB1000 Hornet, but it is expected to be more affordable than the current CB1000R. The bike’s market positioning as a powerful yet accessible sporty naked bike could make it a strong contender in its class. I think the pricing strategy will be crucial for its market success.
Friday, 07 July 2023 07:32 AM The CB1000 Hornet will feature a chunky 180/55 rear tire and a 120/70 front tire, along with radial-mounted four-piston Nissin calipers for robust braking performance. This setup should provide ample grip and stopping power, making it suitable for various riding conditions.
Friday, 07 July 2023 11:07 AM The bike’s bodywork includes a small headlight cowl and forward-jutting panels attached to the fuel tank, which help draw air towards the intakes. This design ensures efficient airflow and contributes to the bike’s overall performance and styling. I think this design element is both functional and visually appealing.

Honda Losing Business Big Time!!!

Rajdeep Das | 6 years ago
helpful 12

**Very Disappointed with Honda Service ** Honda is a good brand no doubt about it. But it is losing business big time just because of their after sale maintenance & service. There can be a thousand problems in your bike and its natural but Honda service centers are never interested to solve these issues. The technicians and the mechanics are not well trained to diagnose the problem and instead they try to convince the customer that they can live with it as these are very common and its not a problem at all. Due to the poor after sale service, the brand name Honda is getting ruined. From my side Honda can no longer live up to its reputation anymore. I owe a CB Hornet 160R CBS and I am facing a problem with my bike visited the showroom (Premier Honda Dankuni, WB.) 15 times but the issue was not yet resolved rather I am spending money on petrol and wasting my precious time which I am now forced to do so.

Best Features: Brakes, Stability

Pros: Style, road grip

Cons: Honda customer Service, No engine kill switch, Poor headlight
