Review
The Honda CB1000 Hornet arrives for the 2026 model year as the most powerful and aggressive member of the 'Hornet' family, bringing the nameplate into the liter-class segment. Its 999cc inline four-cylinder engine, inherited from the 2017 CBR1000RR Fireblade, has been re-optimized for naked bike characteristics to deliver high torque in the low and mid-range. Producing 152 horsepower at 11,000 rpm and 104 Nm of torque at 9,000 rpm, this unit promises both urban flexibility and explosive performance on open roads. On the chassis side, a high-torsional rigidity steel twin-spar frame is used, supported by Showa 41mm SFF-BP inverted forks and a Pro-Link rear suspension. In terms of electronics, Honda offers the rider extensive control; 5 different riding modes (Sport, Standard, Rain, and 2 user-defined modes) manageable via a 5-inch color TFT display, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), and wheelie control come as standard. The design language is shaped by the 'narrow waist and broad shoulders' philosophy, with dual LED projector headlights giving the bike a predatory look. The CB1000 Hornet aims to shift the balance in the naked segment by combining high performance with the daily usability and reliability offered by Japanese engineering.
