The Honda CB1000 Hornet is a motorcycle from Honda. It is currently on sale. With a 999 cc engine it sits in the big-bike, 800 cc-plus class.
Power comes from a 999 cc 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 155 bhp at 11,000 rpm and 107 Nm of torque at 9,000 rpm. Peak torque comes high up, at 9,000 rpm, so it rewards revving. Its bore is wider than its stroke (76 mm x 55.1 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 745 PS per tonne; by that measure, its performance is at superbike level and rewards an experienced rider. It has electric start.
It has a 6-speed manual gearbox with a 1-down, 5-up shift pattern, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. Its slipper clutch lightens the lever and stops the rear wheel hopping when you downshift hard.
At the front, the suspension is 41mm inverted showa SFF-BP telescopic fork with adjustable preload, compression and rebound damping; 5.1-inch travel. At the rear, it is Pro-Link® single Öhlins remote-reservoir shock with adjustable preload, compression and rebound damping; 5.5-inch travel. Braking is by a 310 mm disc at the front and a 240 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 120/70 - 17 at the front and 180/55 - 17 at the rear.
The seat is 810 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 211 kg ready to ride, which is on the heavy side, so moving it by hand takes some effort. The wheelbase is 1,455 mm. It carries 17 L of fuel.
Equipment includes 5 " TFT Display, an LED projector headlamp, call and SMS alerts, distance-to-empty readout, gear position indicator, service due indicator, shift light and low fuel indicator. Safety equipment includes engine kill switch, side-stand engine cut-off, side-stand warning, hazard light switch and traction control. It has four riding modes: Sport, Standard, Rain and User 1 and User 2.

Mechiee doorstep service
₹4,499
Mechiee's fixed doorstep service price for this model.
Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.
Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.
With Disc, 310 mm, 4 piston caliper and Disc, 240 mm brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.
A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.
A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.
A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.
This bike runs 120/70 - 17 / 180/55 - 17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.
Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.
