The design of the new Honda CB Hornet 160R is derived from the CX-01 concept, which was earlier showcased at the 2014 Auto Expo. The fuel tank is sculpted for an edgy look with a rubber protection running down the middle. Taillight gets an X-shape with LED lights. Honda also equips the motorcycle with an all digital instrument console.
In terms of safety, Honda will be providing its CB Hornet 160R with disc brakes for the front and rear. Honda will also offer their Combined Braking System (CBS), which facilitates braking even in tricky conditions.
The Honda CB Hornet 160R will face tough competition in the Rs. 80,000 to Rs. 90,000 price range. The CB Hornet 160R will compete against the likes of Yamaha FZ-S, Suzuki Gixxer, TVS Apache 160, and Honda Xtreme Sports.
