Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
The pulsar cs400 is being launched with led headlamps. Will those be compatible with the hornet?

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
Clocked 1500 Kms. I dont know if this is normal but my bike switches off when I am in higher gear with low RPM. Is this due to taller gear ?? TIAComment

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
It is normal if, say you're trying to ride at 25 in 5th gear which is around 2k rpm. Don't lug the engine this way, shift gears appropriately.Comment

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
Yes, It's normal. If you are at higher gear and low RPM bike switches off. There is little precision needed for 2nd and 3rd gear when to shift low or high.Originally posted by Ananda View Post
Engine start grunting if at 2nd gear and little high speed and on low speed and in 3rd gear.------------------

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
Sometimes, when i downshift from 2nd gear, it goes to neutral. It happens when i upshift from 1st gear also.
Recently it is happening quite a lot.
And also, when i shift from 1st to 2nd gear, i can hear the sound of the gear getting locked quite clearly (even in the crowded place, A Tok sound). But i never hear anything when i switch to other gears.
Is it normal?Comment

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
Yes, that is normal. How old is the bike? Rather, how old is the engine oil?Originally posted by mac4rfree View PostGot a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
I have already completed more than 7000 km and done 2nd service in 6000 Km at EVM Kakkanad. Everything is fine . I needs to clean my horn switch .... some kind of malfunction in sometime.... head light beam is also not great ... but far better than some Hero Honda bikes .... I think its a common problem among Honda family ... battery 4Ah.... I am ready to spend more for a 7 Ah or 12 Ah battery .. no bulb up gradation is possible with 4 Ah. 2nd service was good except their water wash, at least they should wipe out water from the bike after pressure wash. Splashing from rear in monsoon season is also a headache.. pillion will drown with water and mud from the road.
Anyway great experience with HornetComment

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
The 1st to 2nd sound I've heard in many bikes. Maybe something to do with chain slack, because once I took a heavy pillion, and the 1st-2nd shift was smooth.Comment

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
Drove it 3-4 times , for city ride i feel its good with 70-80kmph do not expect too much its not racing bike.
One thing really promising is CBS i applied brake at almost 75-80 and result was amazing.
Buy it for 80% city +20% highway.Comment

Re: Honda CB Hornet 160R Owners Experiences
It is recommended by some seniors to switch to synthetic after around 6000km, ie, after the second service.
Coming to the foot rest, [MENTION=77529]Motomonster[/MENTION] and [MENTION=83684]appsvasan[/MENTION] have fitted the foot rest of other bikes. FZ's foot rest may fit.Last edited by Shashank K R; 06-17-2016, 11:46 PM.Comment
