[@Allenamenwarenschonweg]

YES! In the age of overpriced and overhyped bikes, this is exactly what riders have been longing for! Everything you need, nothing you don't, reliable technology, a thrill everytime you start it up, power without end, hell of a design and a banger of a price. Chapeau Honda, i did not think you still had it in you. Only thing... regarding the exhaust... well... let's say we don't talk about that ;)

[@krzysztof1156]

To be honest it looks like it only has a cat in the mid pipe but then most of the silencing is done in the slip-on which should mean... easy upgrade let's hope :)

[@philipjames3526]

154bhp in a 10k ish bike. Ohlins, Brembo and quite interesting looks. Good effort

[@gaurangpote8111]

Cruise control would have been much appreciated like MT-09. It just makes the bike more versatile to use..

[@Stratocasterhead51]

True. Even if i think cruise control is most beneficial on sports bikes because it helps relieve the aggressive rider position. Isnt a deal killer. Would have liked a better display though. This one looks really basic compared to Africa twin.

[@motorcycle-man]

@@Stratocasterhead51 To be fair, there's a big price difference there but I agree. Bonus points for the backlit controls tho.

[@rileystanek]

Yeah, love having cruise control on a motorcycle. Takes a small amount of stress out of riding

[@wurf5336]

my 2025 bike!!! Thanky you HONDA for updating desing, it looks sick

[@lensoprezole5322]

Hello Honda, is it a race ABS module in the SP version ? 🙂 Because Brembo brakes without a very sporty programmed ABS module are not exploited at their full potential, and that is a shame. This is a common downside of Japanese sports bikes. The ABS module is too gently programmed. The latest race ABS module from BOSCH is a must for people buying a 150 horsepower motorcycle like this 1000 Hornet ! Hope you will hear me. Have a good day Honda workers 👍

[@lensoprezole5322]

And congratulations for having equipped the SP version with the Ohlins TTX36 rear shock and the Brembo Stylema calipers ! That's what European riders were waiting for the 1000cc Hornet ! 👍

[@WHITE_FF_JOD]

I guess it will be a value for money 4 cylinders in India with 15 -17 lakhs on road ❤

Finally some daaaamn good looking bike! With a custom exhaust and tail tidy, it will be a beast! Well done!

[@NathanHolritz]

Stoked to see this bike come out! 🔥Side note, Honda: most people use hp or ps - not kw’s - to reference the power of the engine. 😉

[@BM-cz1xb]

Honda hit this one out of the park, it’s a home run .

[@alexm6340]

I know some people complain about the "low" figures and yes, it is lower than competitors but it's all you need and more for the road. Other than the exhaust which most ppl will swap out anyway it looks properly good, it will definitely sound good AND it has top of the line components and all of this for less than 10 GPB(?) That is CRAZY value for money especially with Honda reliability to top it all off.

[@thodoris3790]

where is it made?

[@thanoszn1600]

As a double owner of two generations Yamaha mr09 SP that hornet really got my interest

[@nicodiaz627]

I´ve had three Honda´s and not one has let me down, sadly I cannot same the same about other motorcycle brands. This one will be a great seller worldwide, can´t wait until it arrives to my country, I will get one for sure!

[@aneet247]

Is wheelie control integrated with hstc or separate?

[@jeffsmithvideos]

Is the master cylinder on the SP a Brembo?

[@aydingultekin2846]

@ honda motorcyles europe When is the X version coming? If u price it reasonable like this one u will have a winner

[@aviateurmotard]

It ticks a lot of the boxes, though it's a little on the heavy side (212 kg wet). One of the best looking motorcycle around, and that comes from a Ducati Panigale rider

bigger windscreen like available on the 2024 MT09 would be nice, this windscreen does nothing, its not even covering the backside of the display. I would love to compare this SP to MT09 SP and try to buy one of these.

[@ducedevlstear2471]

There is a massive performance difference between them.

Ironic that it's narrated by an American, but not sold here. I hope you bring it Honda, I'll take one in Red or white. Been waiting 10 years for this.
