  • hey, im 17 soon, looking to buy a honda hornet 600.

    what is the acceleration like when restricted (0-60 time) and what speed does it max out at?

    any other information would be gratefully reseived.

  • that bike is restricted in the vid. Imagine never opening the throttle more than 20% thats how much the 33bhp hornet is restricted. top speed about 85mph on the flat. Once the 2yr period was up we swapped it all back to full power spec(new inlet rubbers for each carb different cdi and new key all supplied by honda at the time of purchase) And it was a much better bike after that

  • Hey

    I'll hopefully be passing my bike test in a few months and i'm desperately looking for a good next bike. Does the hornet feel underpowered at 33bhp, obviously it's normally knocking out about 100. Does acceleration suffer atall?

  • Yes the acceleration is a lot less than the normal full power bike!!!

see all

  • Top speed at 33bhp??

  • Does this machine have a throttle restriction ?

  • got a 2002 honda hornet restricted. 1st and 2nd gear will redline, i have just squeezed 60mph in 1st gear, then 80mph in 2nd gear, then the other gears run out of the grunt but had 100mph with my head down flat out. the accerlation 0.60 seems to be very quick. will do 60mph at 5RPM in 6th so crusing very comftable !

  • when my hornet was restricted i could just about squeeze 100mph out of it, it just had 4 washers in the carb inlets that restricted the airflow in

  • hey how much did you pay to insurance at age of 17 or whenever you first got her? and was it full comp? and was it gararged?

  • where is this?? live on anglesey and im curious to know where this is? please answer lol.
