Following the introduction of the Honda H'ness CB350, Honda Nepal is now preparing to unveil the Hornet 2.0 - a naked streetfighter to compete with the likes of the TVS Apache RTR 200 and the Bajaj Pulsar NS200.

Despite the fact that the bike is built on an entirely new platform, it would not be incorrect to argue that the Hornet 2.0 is an improved version of the earlier Hornet. Nonetheless, Honda Motorcycles India has now reached the 200cc club with the Hornet 2.0.

The Honda Hornet 2.0 is powered by an 184 cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine that produces 17 bhp at 8500 rpm and a class-leading 16.1 Nm of peak torque at 6000 rpm.

A 5-speed transmission is available as an option. The bike is said to be capable of covering 200 meters in just over 11 seconds. According to Honda, the Hornet 2.0 features class-leading mid-range torque and performance.

The naked streetfighter comes with a slew of premium features, including the segment's first USD forks and an all-digital blue backlit instrument dashboard with five levels of brightness. The Hornet 2.0 is outfitted with an all-LED lighting system that includes an angled LED headlamp, LED tail lights, and LED indicators.

To fit its sporty design, the bike also gets a robust 12-litre fuel tank with sharp extensions, a step-up seat, dual-petal disc brakes on both ends, a single-channel ABS system, and a compact muffler.

A rear monoshock, engine stop and hazard button, keyhole on the fuel tank, battery voltmeter, wider tubeless tyres at the front (110mm) and back (140mm), alloy footpegs, new alloy wheel design, and sporty decals are also included.

Honda CB Hornet 2.0 price in Nepal is Rs 498,900.

Honda is working on a small Hornet 2.0-based adventure bike that will go on sale in India in the second half of 2021, according to HT Auto in 2020. The Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer has now registered the name NX200 in the "Motorcycles and their Parts" class.

  

As previously reported, the bike, like the Hornet 2.0, will be sold through the Honda RedWing dealership network and will be based on the same platform and engine. For the record, another bike based on the same platform is available in China. It's called the CB190X, and it's not a stretch to think that the same bike could be used as a template for the India-spec Honda NX200.

In terms of mechanicals, the NX200 will be powered by the Hornet 2.0's 184.5cc 2-valve, air-cooled single-cylinder engine. This is also expected to produce 17.26 PS and 16.1 Nm of peak torque. Transmission is most likely a 5-speed unit.

The NX200 will, of course, have exterior features such as long-travel suspension, high ground clearance, seat height, and a wide handlebar. It could also have knobby tyres for better traction when riding off-road. It has not been confirmed whether Honda will use spoke wheels, but the chances are slim. Other features that could be included are LED lighting, single-channel ABS, and a fully digital instrument panel.

It is expected to be priced between 1.30 lakh and 1.40 lakh (ex-showroom) and will compete directly with the Hero Xpulse 200 ADV.
