HONDA CB1000 Hornet (2024) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2023, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer introduced the Honda CB1000 Hornet alongside the CB500 Hornet. The larger displacement motorcycle expanded the Hornet family with aggressive styling, a high-specification chassis, and top-end equipment.

The new Honda CB1000 Hornet delivers excellent performance complemented by high-quality specifications, compact dimensions, and a refreshing style that makes it hard to ignore. The bike will be available in Grand Prix Red, Mat Iridium Grey Metallic, and Pearl Glare White.

In the visual department, the bike packs standard features, such as a dual headlight system, a digital instrument cluster, a Hornet-signature fuel tank, a two-piece dual seat, a four-into-one exhaust system with the muffler mounted on the right side, and ten-spoke lightweight cast wheels.

The bike is built around a twin-spar steel frame with a 41 mm inverted Showa adjustable fork on the front and a Pro-Link Showa shock absorber on the rear acting as suspension.

The bike is set to hit dealerships in the middle of 2024, while the maker still has to reveal its full specifications regarding power, dimensions, and others. Also, it is unclear whether the 2024 model year CB1000 Hornet will replace the CB1000R.

Few specifications were released, like the output power of 150 hp and 100 Nm (74 lb-ft) torque, frame, suspension, two 310 mm discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel, and other minor ones.
