As the undisputed pioneer of naked midsized performers, the Hornet has consistently set the standard for brazen streetfighter looks and blistering riding fun. Slimmer, lighter, more powerful and easier to ride than any other bike in its class, the Hornet gets its blast of performance from the same compact engine that powers the phenomenal CBR600RR to domination on track and street, yet tuned for stronger midrange acceleration that keeps the Hornet's excitement meter running high.
