Honda launches 600 Hornet
Mid-sized naked returnsHonda's mid-sized naked bike, the 600 Hornet, has finally returned to the local market in a much-revamped form.
The machine sports a new injected powerplant and very different styling.
Here's Honda’s brag sheet on the model:
- Mass-centralised construction that locates heavier components closer to the Hornet's central turning axes for sharper, smoother and more confident handling.
- A lighter, more compact and higher-revving new fuel-injected engine developed alongside the 2007 CBR600RR.
- New low-slung exhaust system for enhanced mass centralisation and sharper handling.
- A newly developed gravity die-cast (GDC) aluminium Mono-Backbone frame for lighter weight and sharper handling.
- Tapered dual-box-section aluminium swingarm.
- 41mm inverted cartridge-type front fork.
- Lightweight, newly designed five-spoke aluminium alloy wheels.
- New over/under dual multi-reflector headlight and slim LED taillight.
- HISS immobiliser security system.
It’s priced at $11,990 plus ORC.
