      Great bike, riding, sitting, look everything awesome. Overall i will give 10 out of 10. Every mechanism and parts are unique. If you ride this bike you feel how smooth & aggressive this bike . I have bought this bike & ride 56 km after 8 years of my previous riding I never feel that i am a new rider in kolkata traffic.

    • Very nice riding experience

      4 years ago


      Ramprabhu

      1. No issue face while buying
      2. Very smooth ride while traveling long distance
      3. Decent look and performance good.
      4. Servicing and maintainance is very easy. Feel very safe I feel while travelling long distance. Because both are disk brake and front abs
      5. Cons is face heating issue. Pros is smooth ride, easily maintain.

    • Good bike with little bad service.

      5 years ago


      Mani

      Buying at tamilnadu is good and cost effective. In salem i got for 1.55l. The bike riding is good smooth. Don't expect aggressive riding (it is not duke 200/ns200). Good for cornering.Look is very good and the performance it is crushing 80kmph without any vibration for me. But 70 - 80kmph increase the speed slowly otherwise i got some noise while raising but not on running. Service is not that much good. Maintenance cost is ok same like unicorn.Pros: good mileage (i got 54kmpl at highway at speed of 60-70kmph) , for city i got 49kmplLooks good and giving confidence for ride long. Con's: i have small wobbling issue. Service people dint solve that issue. Other than that some time false gear happening.

    • A mature bike who is still a kid at heart

      5 years ago


      Divyanshu

      Owner of this bike from last 1 month. Here are a few pros and cons.
      Pros : 1.) exceptionally good handling - you will just love to ride it in city or on highways. 2.) superb comfort - for riders it's seat is very comfy but for pillion I will give 8.5 out of 10 3.) great for cornering - if you live in a place where there is a lot of cornering , this bike will amaze you with the confidence it gives while cornering. 4.) decent mileage - was 40-42kmpl of mileage before first servicing but they said it will increase to 45+. 5.) grabs attention - it's something new on Indian roads + it's golden USD forks looks amazingly sexy. 6.) power - it can beat any bike(under 200cc) in 0-70km/h speed, even that roaring apache !! . Very strong mid range . Cruising speed is 90-100 without any vibration.
      Cons : 1.) no abs on rear disc - this was disappointing. The rear wheel does skids on heavy braking. Should have been there. 2.) creepy sound from rear disc - rear disc sounds like rat while braking, however it got fixed after first servicing.3.) stiff suspension - it has adjustable rear suspension which is pre fixed on stiffer side. But on positive it gives confidence while cornering. 4.) headlights - could have been better, specially in low beam. Many owners have posted issue with this bike like oil leakage or others. I didn't faced any of such issue except of sound from rear disc which got fixed after first servicing. And yes it will lose race against mt-15 or apache but only in top range which is after 90km/h, probably and you don't need that in city even if you like to race. P.S -- this bike is mature and seeks probably a mature rider who loves riding rather than speeding or doing drag race.

    • My review of my honda hornet 2.0

      3 years ago


      Amit

      Buying - I bought it for 1,56,000 rs chakdah , west bengal with all accessories (seat cover and leg guard )
      Riding - seating position is a little sporty but it's comfortable, 1 gear too much power feels torquey, little vibration in 2 nd gear at higher rpm . You have to ride it 3rd or 4th gear for smooth riding. I usually use it 4th gear and I am satisfied with no vibration and good control.
      Looks - obviously, looks are a subjective matter but those golden fronts are eye-catching, look premium, and look decent, I love my bike looks which are matt red colour.
      Servicing - good, it depends on which showroom you buy.
      Pros - looks, honda engine, smoothness, controlling, all led
      Cons - no mudguard so muds come up easily, no liquid cooling thought engine did not heat much.
      That's it folks hope you guys read my entire review if you want to buy this bike, buy it you won't disappoint it's the perfect combination of power and mileage you can daily commute as well as a tour on this bike. thanks.

    • Just ride it once then come back

      3 years ago


      Pratik

      Don't compare spec sheets
      Don't compare features
      Gimmicks are going to make you feel special.......For some time
      Then you'll get used to it
      & you'll never use it
      Just ride this one, once
      You'll fall in love with it
      The torque surge comes from 2000-2500rpms
      Will scare your pillion
      It's that kind of machine
      The rush after 6000rpms will scare you as well
      As if you'll feel like the bike will leave you behind
      The short gearing is the cherry on the top
      You can cruise in 5th gear
      From 30 to straight up 130
      Suspension's stiff
      Yes, I agree
      But if you're seeking comfort in this kind of machine
      Then you'd be better of go with activa....
      But but but
      You still want this one........
      The suspension stiffness
      Makes the bike rock solid at whatever speeds you wish to go
      The headlight's illumination is not that great
      Just lower its level
      & you'll be fine with it
      But for everything else
      You can trust honda & hornet
      Aftersales is excellent
      It's cheap to maintain ( no pun intended )
      & trust me
      You'll never regret this one !!!
      Though its expensive, less features, only 5 speeds, blah blah
      I repeat......
      you'll never regret this one.

      Clean chain every 3-4 weeks. While deceleration you'll feel a jerk on the footpeg That's dust, and mud on your chain & sprocket Tyre pressure 25-25 for both tyres will give you the best of both worlds Mileage & Comfort.

      You can cruise in 5th gear
      From 30 to straight up 130
      Suspension's stiff
      Yes, I agree
      But if you're seeking comfort in this kind of machine
      Then you'd be better of go with activa....
      But but but
      You still want this one........
      The suspension stiffness
      Makes the bike rock solid at whatever speeds you wish to go
      The headlight's illumination is not that great
      Just lower its level
      & you'll be fine with it
      But for everything else
      You can trust honda & hornet
      Aftersales is excellent
      It's cheap to maintain ( no pun intended )
      & trust me
      You'll never regret this one !!!
      Though its expensive, less features, only 5 speeds, blah blah
      I repeat......
      you'll never regret this one.

      Clean chain every 3-4 weeks. While deceleration you'll feel a jerk on the footpeg That's dust, and mud on your chain & sprocket Tyre pressure 25-25 for both tyres will give you the best of both worlds Mileage & Comfort.

    • Good bike with little bad service.

      5 years ago


      Mani

      Buying at tamilnadu is good and cost effective. In salem i got for 1.55l. The bike riding is good smooth. Don't expect aggressive riding (it is not duke 200/ns200). Good for cornering.Look is very good and the performance it is crushing 80kmph without any vibration for me. But 70 - 80kmph increase the speed slowly otherwise i got some noise while raising but not on running. Service is not that much good. Maintenance cost is ok same like unicorn.Pros: good mileage (i got 54kmpl at highway at speed of 60-70kmph) , for city i got 49kmplLooks good and giving confidence for ride long. Con's: i have small wobbling issue. Service people dint solve that issue. Other than that some time false gear happening.

    • A mature bike who is still a kid at heart

      5 years ago


      Divyanshu

      Owner of this bike from last 1 month. Here are a few pros and cons.
      Pros : 1.) exceptionally good handling - you will just love to ride it in city or on highways. 2.) superb comfort - for riders it's seat is very comfy but for pillion I will give 8.5 out of 10 3.) great for cornering - if you live in a place where there is a lot of cornering , this bike will amaze you with the confidence it gives while cornering. 4.) decent mileage - was 40-42kmpl of mileage before first servicing but they said it will increase to 45+. 5.) grabs attention - it's something new on Indian roads + it's golden USD forks looks amazingly sexy. 6.) power - it can beat any bike(under 200cc) in 0-70km/h speed, even that roaring apache !! . Very strong mid range . Cruising speed is 90-100 without any vibration.
      Cons : 1.) no abs on rear disc - this was disappointing. The rear wheel does skids on heavy braking. Should have been there. 2.) creepy sound from rear disc - rear disc sounds like rat while braking, however it got fixed after first servicing.3.) stiff suspension - it has adjustable rear suspension which is pre fixed on stiffer side. But on positive it gives confidence while cornering. 4.) headlights - could have been better, specially in low beam. Many owners have posted issue with this bike like oil leakage or others. I didn't faced any of such issue except of sound from rear disc which got fixed after first servicing. And yes it will lose race against mt-15 or apache but only in top range which is after 90km/h, probably and you don't need that in city even if you like to race. P.S -- this bike is mature and seeks probably a mature rider who loves riding rather than speeding or doing drag race.

    • My review of my honda hornet 2.0

      3 years ago


      Amit

      Buying - I bought it for 1,56,000 rs chakdah , west bengal with all accessories (seat cover and leg guard )
      Riding - seating position is a little sporty but it's comfortable, 1 gear too much power feels torquey, little vibration in 2 nd gear at higher rpm . You have to ride it 3rd or 4th gear for smooth riding. I usually use it 4th gear and I am satisfied with no vibration and good control.
      Looks - obviously, looks are a subjective matter but those golden fronts are eye-catching, look premium, and look decent, I love my bike looks which are matt red colour.
      Servicing - good, it depends on which showroom you buy.
      Pros - looks, honda engine, smoothness, controlling, all led
      Cons - no mudguard so muds come up easily, no liquid cooling thought engine did not heat much.
      That's it folks hope you guys read my entire review if you want to buy this bike, buy it you won't disappoint it's the perfect combination of power and mileage you can daily commute as well as a tour on this bike. thanks.

      Pratik

      Don't compare spec sheets
      Don't compare features
      Gimmicks are going to make you feel special.......For some time
      Then you'll get used to it
      & you'll never use it
      Just ride this one, once
      You'll fall in love with it
      The torque surge comes from 2000-2500rpms
      Will scare your pillion
      It's that kind of machine
      The rush after 6000rpms will scare you as well
      As if you'll feel like the bike will leave you behind
      The short gearing is the cherry on the top
      You can cruise in 5th gear
      From 30 to straight up 130
      Suspension's stiff
      Yes, I agree

    • My review of my honda hornet 2.0

      3 years ago


      Amit

      Buying - I bought it for 1,56,000 rs chakdah , west bengal with all accessories (seat cover and leg guard )
      Riding - seating position is a little sporty but it's comfortable, 1 gear too much power feels torquey, little vibration in 2 nd gear at higher rpm . You have to ride it 3rd or 4th gear for smooth riding. I usually use it 4th gear and I am satisfied with no vibration and good control.
      Looks - obviously, looks are a subjective matter but those golden fronts are eye-catching, look premium, and look decent, I love my bike looks which are matt red colour.
      Servicing - good, it depends on which showroom you buy.
      Pros - looks, honda engine, smoothness, controlling, all led
      Cons - no mudguard so muds come up easily, no liquid cooling thought engine did not heat much.
      That's it folks hope you guys read my entire review if you want to buy this bike, buy it you won't disappoint it's the perfect combination of power and mileage you can daily commute as well as a tour on this bike. thanks.

    • Just ride it once then come back

      3 years ago


      Pratik

      Don't compare spec sheets
      Don't compare features
      Gimmicks are going to make you feel special.......For some time
      Then you'll get used to it
      & you'll never use it
      Just ride this one, once
      You'll fall in love with it
      The torque surge comes from 2000-2500rpms
      Will scare your pillion
      It's that kind of machine
      The rush after 6000rpms will scare you as well
      As if you'll feel like the bike will leave you behind
      The short gearing is the cherry on the top
      You can cruise in 5th gear
      From 30 to straight up 130
      Suspension's stiff
      Yes, I agree
      But if you're seeking comfort in this kind of machine
      Then you'd be better of go with activa....
      But but but
      You still want this one........
      The suspension stiffness
      Makes the bike rock solid at whatever speeds you wish to go
      The headlight's illumination is not that great
      Just lower its level
      & you'll be fine with it
      But for everything else
      You can trust honda & hornet
      Aftersales is excellent
      It's cheap to maintain ( no pun intended )
      & trust me
      You'll never regret this one !!!
      Though its expensive, less features, only 5 speeds, blah blah
      I repeat......
      you'll never regret this one.

      Tips for other riders

      Clean chain every 3-4 weeks. While deceleration you'll feel a jerk on the footpeg That's dust, and mud on your chain & sprocket Tyre pressure 25-25 for both tyres will give you the best of both worlds Mileage & Comfort.

      Sayantan Chatterjee

      Not expected! started problems with clutch and gear lever after running it 700km, it's become harder to put in neutral, clutch also become little stave and not work properly. Never ever drive rough i'm always follow total break in system still don't understand how such problems occurs, its pathetic for such honda fan like me.
