    And does suspension get softer with time? I mean, like wear out or something like that?

      Yes of course! Just like any other suspension, this one too would get saggy few years down the line. An overhaul would be needed.

          Nothing lasts forever. Also, not to forget, we get the most basic monoshock systems on our bikes.

            Yes it is . But it doesnt mean it would provide us utmost comfort or racetrack setup response. As the name says its ADJUSTABLE not TRANSFORMABLE

              I got replaced my one of the side mirror from dealer. It got spots on mirror around 20% of surface , out of no where during last week.
              No hassle with replacement. Went to dealer, showed the problem and they replaced immediately.

                  Good news!

                  Honda has re-launched its work horse, CB Unicorn 150. It will be available with dealerships in a month. Specifications remain the exact same. The most reliable 150 is back

                  Unicorn is a legendary motorcycle. I feel very proud that Honda will continue the legacy

                          Don't know whether it is confirmed but some xbhpians were saying about confirmation from customer care.

                            Harmony Honda, BHEL Hyderabad called me to come on Sunday to get 2 free movie ticket for "Krishnagaadi Veera Prema Gaadha" on same day.
                            They specifically asked to come on Hornet. Let's see how many Hornets will be at the same time

                                Seating position might be higher more for you, for comfortable both legs on ground.
                                Try in test drive
