2006 Honda Hornet 900
The exciting Hornet 900 packs a mean punch that carries you swiftly into its
world of exciting streetfighter style and performance. Its breathtaking surge of power
ripples out of the same fuel-injected inline-4 engine originally developed for the
legendary FireBlade, and has been specially tuned for stronger low-to-midrange grunt
that lights up in an eye-opening flash from anywhere in its wide powerband.
Handling is, like its looks, swift and agile thanks to its spare and strong Mono-
Backbone frame, lightweight aluminium swingarm and Monoshock rear suspension, not
to mention those big, racing class dual 4-pot front brakes to pull you down to cornering
speeds in a hurry.
The Hornet 900's fearsome aggressiveness is visually highlighted by its
prominently positioned engine and the pair of big gun silencers positioned under its
slim and sleek seat cowl. If the thrill of the ride sets your soul on fire, then count on the
Hornet 900 to spark that flame.
