The Honda CB Hornet 160R comes inspired from the design of the concept Honda bike, the CX-01, which was showcased at the last year's Auto Expo. It comes with a bit different approach as all the Honda bikes in the segment are more commuters than the famous street fighter designing. The tank gets a muscular cowl, which houses the Honda's wing symbol over it. Front gets a Honda style headlight and the most noticeable point becomes its mid-ship exhaust design. The alloy wheel design is new to the Honda family and looks great on the Hornet 160R. The tank has been precisely chiselled from each angle, making it more muscular than any other bike in the Honda's Portfolio.
Premium feel would surround the newcomer as it is not made like every other commuter in the MARKET or by Honda itself. The lack of a naked bike with pure street bike feel can be fulfilled by the muscular and tough looking body design.
The engine below the tank is said to be the same unit which is currently available on the CB Unicorn 160. The 162.71 cc, single cylinder engine is expected to produce 14.5 BHP and 14.61 NM of torque. The gearbox remains the same 5-speed unit of the Unicorn and no changes are said to be done to the gear ratios also. The engine would come with HET (Honda Eco Technology) and will feature a good balance between style, economy and power.
