4A quiet and relevant motorcycle. 1 year ago by Aditya

I had borrowed the Honda hornet 2.0 from a friend to do a tour from Bangalore to Mysore to Coorg & back.
I have always been a fan of Honda as I personally own a CBR 250r which is a beauty.
The best thing about this bike is that its:
1. Reliable: not a single time the bike gave any trouble during the tour, engine is super smooth.
2. Performance: being a Honda, the performance is linear and smooth. The throttle is so easy that you hardly notice that the bike is at 80-90 km/h. Every time i looked at the speedo, i was surprised. Engine is superbly refined.
3. Maintenance: being a Honda owner myself I know how reliable and affordable it is maintaining a Honda motorcycle. The engineers and the service staff are well versed.
4 . Looks: Well these are subjective, I personally find its look pretty good. The golden forks & led lights give the bike a distinctive look.
5. Comfort: here I have a little gribe with this bike, as long as the roads are smooth, the bike rides nicely, but as soon as we hit the potholes (even small ones) the suspension sends messages through your spine. You would have to take a break after 150kms or so.
6. Fuel economy: no complaints here, decent mileage of 45-55 km/l with a fuel capacity of around 10 liters. You will get a decent range.
Pros:
1. Reliable
2. Fuel efficient
3. Looks good
4. Honda's economic and good service network
Cons:
1. Stiff suspension(rear) (spine tickler)
2. A little expensive than the competition (well that's how Honda sells in India)

Pros - good build quality. Look is great with x back light. Bulky look. It's good for short height riders. Machine is superb. I am using hornet from last 5 years. I had purchased it in 2016. There are no issues faced regarding the machine.
Cons - poor quality of side guard. I crashed on road and it's immediately turned and bike fell on my leg just because of poor quality of the side guard. Its just bolted on round chassis of bike.
Breaking issues I have noticed for combo braking is that when you brake and your handle is slightly crossed then your control goes out coz of combo braking. Combo is not good for bulky bikes.

4Honda cb hornet- a glimpse 1 year ago by Ankit Vyas

The price range of the bike is decent. The bike engine is normal Honda engine but comes with a sporty look. It cost around 1.1 to 1.2 lakhs at the time of purchase.
Riding experience- the ride experience is satisfactory. It is best for daily commute as well as highway travel across cities.
It requires maintenance at scheduled kms whether travelled or no. First 3 servicing are free by Honda. and brakes are good and prevent stalling the bike.
The above can be considered as pros. Cons include the limit speed of 105-110. Above it the bike cannot hold. The seating space is little as compared to other bikes.

5Best bike in 180cc segment 1 year ago by Sai Kishore

1. Buying experience:
I always had a dream of buying a nice bike but cost matters to many of them. Same concern on my side also. I had confusion between Honda hornet 2.0 and Yamaha fz 25. Both are great in their own aspects but Yamaha price is slightly higher than Honda. Both looks stylish and design is also excellent. I had almost waited for 6 months by comparing these 2 bikes. I took test drive every month of both bikes. Finally I decided to go with Honda hornet 2.0 because of the price.
2. Riding experience:
Riding a bike itself is a great feel. You feel like the king of road. When I ride the hornet, the feel is like awesome which we can't explain in words. Great feel. The riding position is very comfortable where we can sit properly and enjoy the riding due to great seating position. The engine is very smooth and we don't get irritated.
3. Details about looks, performance and mileage:
As i already said, look is awesome like beat me if you have enough strength. Awesome looks with led lights front and back which is visible day and night. Suspension of forks and shockers are also good without any jerks. Performance is also smooth, riding is comfortable. Mileage is claimed to be around 40 to 45 km/l due to 180cc bike but it will vary depending on load, wind, tyre pressure, etc
4. Servicing and maintenance:
Servicing 180cc bike will have its own price but compared to other bikes, this looks better in terms of pricing. Maintenance is also easier that we can get in one day. Staff's behavior is also fine as they understand clearly.
5. Pros and cons:
Pros - Easy to handle, can go on long rides up to 300 kms per day. It has stylish ride, and comfortable seating position.
Cons - Chains bracket needs to be changed as it gets loosened after some kms.

I got hornet 2.0 and sold my old hornet 160r. I miss my old bike. 2.0 is not good compared to 160r, i face many problems day by day. My rear disk brake is very noisy when I apply the brake. I had complained it in service and they changed brake pads. Sound got increased more, rear suspension was noisy when I move the bike or sit on the bike, starting pickup was too bad. It starts like low fuel in bike and after 10 min drive it come to normal engine range. Low mileage below 40km/l, date gets reset automatically everyday, I don't know why. Lighting was not so good, I fell down from bike due to low pickup engine which even don't run properly.

1 Buying experience is too good because this is my dream bike and one more thing when you buy all papers collect at same day.
2 Riding experience is when you sit on the hornet 2.0 you feel too confident the usd fork is help to increase the confidence and making ride comfortable and most important brakes in hornet 2.0 with abs is too much awesome.
3 Looks and performance - looks are too attractive and performance is really awesome
4 Service- 3 services are not so much expensive because first 3 service are free you will pay only for engine oil.
Pros- all features are available and looks very premium
Cons- I think company gave us extra featured speedometer. And second is air cooled engine company gave us to oil cooled engine.
