Honda Hornet 2.0 Price in Phaltan

Buying experience: The buying experience was quite good, the staff was quite eager to help and even arranged a test ride on the same day.
Riding experience: The riding experience was excellent as I was coming from Honda Shine, the hornet has a better platform, riding posture bigger engine etc, so overall riding experience was fabulous.
This is one of the best-looking bikes in the segment
especially those golden USD forks and rear x-shaped tail lights.
Performance: with 17ps of power and 16 nm of torque it was a much more powerful bike compared to my previous bike shine and performance were awesome, especially in the mid-range power band and I was getting quite good mileage (40-50) kmpl.
The service center of my area is decent although I haven't faced any major issues basic service like oil change, brake pads replacement etc was good.
Pros :
Looks
Performance especially in mid-range
Handling
Mileage
Cons:
Overpriced compared to rivals
Low. Ground clearance
Stiff suspension
Hope this helps

About the Reviewer

After a very long period of searching for the perfect bike, I finally settled on Hornet 2.0
You'll find many reviews on Youtube so no need for a detailed explanation.
Just remember the following key points:-
1) I am using XP95 petrol and getting 48 Kmpl in the city (Hinjewadi-Wakad) (currently riding below 60 kmph)(This is before 1st servicing!)(accurate mileage test 3 times till now)
2) This is the 2024 model and is a lot better and improved than the 2021-22 models (Almost all the issues are resolved)
3) For comfort- Yes it is a little stiff but here's the catch- maintain 25psi in front and 29psi in rear(with pillion) (25psi without pillion)and you'll discover a whole new additional dimension of comfort💯(based on experience)
4) For mileage improvement- Don't use the clutch unnecessarily, gentle throttle opening, and maintain the recommended tire pressure.
5) The rider as well as the pillion seat is on a firm and comfortable side
6) Engine heating is normal and will be updated after the highway-long trip.
7) The only issue encountered till now is the gear downshifting. (gears getting stuck while downshifting and requires adjusting the clutch). Will get it resolved in first servicing. (gear upshifting is buttery smooth!)
At the end, completely satisfied with the Hornet 2.0 and will recommend it to anyone who is looking for the most refined engine with excellent torque, daily city and highway commute, a large pillion seat, great power, and excellent mileage combo!!
