Reviews of Honda Hornet 2.0

The first Bike that I have purchased on my own. Superb Bike. Went for it after much deliberations and research. Took a test ride and immediately fell in love with it.
1.Its new engine is the pinnacle of Honda.
2.Tuning is spot on and different from other bikes. It is in essence a true street fighter.
3.Build Quality is also Top notch except some finishing issues in minute areas.
4. This bike will outrace every Bike in the segment in its character, refinement and longevity.
5.Upside Down forks from Showa will make you begin your day with a smile on your face.
6.Ergonomics will keep you relaxed all day long.
7.Unique ultra max Tyres from Maxxis are a boon.
8. Fuel Economy - This bike is as frugal as it can get in this department.
9.Handling- Seems that Honda wants you to ride like Marc Marquez. Superb Flickability. The grip, balance and conduct of the Chassis will surprise you. The low Kerb weight really demonstrates itself on the road and city traffic.
10.Brakes- Spot on . Inspires confidence.
You can ride tight with these brakes. Precise braking performance from Nissin callipers and petal discs. Dual Channel ABS could have been offered as an option.
11.Lighting - Adequate illumination and throw. The Led headlights do their job pretty good, did not expect such brightness and range in an Led unit in this budget segment.
12. Engine heating- Not an issue till now. Rode 100 kms at a stretch.
13. The bike cruises with ease at 100 kmph at 6000 Rpm in 5th gear. Overtakes at your command. Prompt top gear performance. Redlines at 9000 Rpm.
6th Gear could have been provided for enthusiastic highway rides.
14. Price tag may seem much at first. But after you own the bike and ride for 100 km you will understand the difference. The product is worth the price.

About the Reviewer

I buy this hornet 2.0 before one month. I feel very nice riding experience. Fully comfortable bike. It's a daily commuter bike. Not a sports bike. Overall looks is awesome, Usd forks gives a premium feel. First service is done, maintenance cost is very low. But, rear break not abs and it's a air cooled engine. That's a disadvantages for this price range.

About the Reviewer

I bought a Honda Hornet 2.0 from Bimal Honda Adabari, Guwahati Assam on 18th June 2021. The main purpose behind selecting this bike was the frequent weekend trips between Guwahati and Tezpur and the occasional rides to Arunachal Pradesh and Meghalaya. Therefore, I have used this bike for daily commutes within the cities and highway rides some of which have been the ones with pretty bad roads that tested the suspension system.
The looks and performance of the bike justify its category as a street bike. In the performance sector, there are definite vibrations that can be felt once the 85kmph limit is crossed. However, with proper riding gear, the effects of vibrations can be greatly reduced and the ride becomes very smooth. As the ergonomic of the bike is quite comfortable with a little bit of aggressive stance, one can easily ride 200 km at one go. Apart from the ride quality which can be easily rated as 4/5, this bike provides good mileage too. It goes around 40 kmpl on highways and 38 kmpl within the cities.
The engine of the bike lives up to the saying of the reliability of the Honda engine. Within 2.5 years, a 22500 km ride was completed on this bike without any engine issues. For the maintenance of this bike, paid servicing was always done after 6000km or 6 months. The check-up of the chain and its cleaning and lubrication is done after every 1000km but sooner if the rides involved bad roads.
However, there are two cons apart from all the good positive aspects
1. A little bit of engine oil that minutely seeps through the engine oil inlet.
2. Low power of the headlamp.
But none of these are deal breakers. The oil seepage stopped as soon as the valve was changed.
Overall the bike can be easily rated as 4/5 taking into consideration the suspension, engine reliability, service experience, ergonomics and handling.

About the Reviewer

It's been close to 4 months now & used for 2500kms. Hornet 2.0 is very refined and comes with great riding pleasure. It's really smooth and very easy to handle. I had a chance to touch 100kmph once & usually ride at 80-90 kmph. No vibration and a very comfortable ride. Has 5 gears and has great Power & we don't need a 6th gear. Have taken a test ride of many bikes till now ( 150 - 200cc ). But nothing beats this. Take a test ride and then decide. I loved the bike on the first test ride itself. Enjoying the riding pleasure. Go for it. By the way, mileage is b/w 38 & 43 km/liter for me now. This is only in cities.

About the Reviewer

Reliability of honda can see all over ride. Good handling and very good bike for both beginners and intermediates. Fit and finish is always in and above the standards. Engine is refined and smooth.Console is average and features are not worth money. But the riding pleasure is value for money. It's a very good tourer too.

This was my second bike after apache rtr 160 4v bs6 but when i bought this bike i was completely shocked to see the performance look speed mileage and acceleration everything in hornet 2.0 is better then any bike in this price range even it surpasses bikes like ktm which is more expensive but still hornet is better durable and faster then ktm and apache rtr too . I loved it .I use this bike on daily bases and also have travelled twice from my home in chandigarh to my other home in manali and it was smooth ride with zero issue . I would suggest to buy this bike .

About the Reviewer

First thing I like to share about Honda, Honda is the best leading brand. and Honda product will come long last. Honda is trust and Honda hornet 2.0 is the super premium bike in segment and the riding agronomic was stunning and cornering was awesome. 140 section tyre was doing good job in cornering. The golden usd fork was eye catching look and doing good job in track and bumps and hornet 2.0 company claimed 45km/l but in real time mileage is 48km to 51km/l Honda hornet 2.0 look was massive look. Fully loaded led light's 1st in segment and attractive x shaped tail light was sexy look. About the servicing was just engine oil change its cost around' rs700 and very very less maintenance. Hornet 2.0 pro is full led light's 1st in segment, attractive look, good riding, best mileage and performance.
Cons : the hornet 2.0 price was too expensive, and no oil cooled engine, no 6 speed gear box, no side stand engine cut off switch, no dual channel abs.
