Honda Hornet 20 Image Gallery

Honda has launched the Hornet 2.0, its first made-in-India motorcycle in the 180-200cc segment. Here’s every aspect of this newest streetfighter decoded in detailed images:

The overall design of the Honda Hornet 2.0 looks a lot more masculine than the CB Hornet 160R.

The beefy fuel tank extensions are neatly designed. The bike also gets a tank-mounted key slot for a sporty appeal.

The all-LED lighting system, which is a first for a made-in-India Honda, looks quite sleek and premium. The indicators are similar to the ones on the CB 300R.

It sports a fully digital instrument cluster that comes with adjustable brightness. The console shows the gear position as well as the battery voltage reading, apart from the regular run-of-the-mill information.

The split seat on the Hornet 2.0 goes well with its sporty demeanour. Its predecessor featured a single-piece seat.

The Hornet 2.0 packs an all-new 184cc air-cooled engine, which produces 17.2PS at 8500rpm and 16.1Nm at 6000rpm. While we were expecting a 6-speed transmission, the motorcycle makes do with a 5-speed unit.

Another big talking point is the inverted front fork. It looks properly premium thanks to the gold finish. This is a first for a small-capacity Honda motorcycle made here. The rear uses a monoshock that is adjustable for preload.

Braking is via petal discs on both ends, measuring 276mm up front and 220mm at the rear. Honda has offered only a single-channel ABS as standard.

The Hornet 2.0 gets a slightly meatier front tyre than its predecessor. It rolls on 110-section front and 140-section rubber at the rear. Sadly, there’s no radial tyre.

Breaking Down BS6 Carburettors And Fuel Injection Explained

It’s now been nearly 4 months since BS6 emission norms came into effect, and almost all the bikes and scooters sold in India have been updated to meet the stricter regulations. Most recent among these to receive the updates was the TVS Scooty Zest BS6 , which was launched a couple of days ago at Rs 58,640. Like all the BS6 updates we’ve seen so far, this new version is more expensive than its BS4 predecessor, by around Rs 6,000 in this case. And the biggest reason behind these price hikes is the addition of a fuel-injection system. So what exactly is it? And how did bikes work before fuel-injection came into the picture? Let’s take a look: To understand why a fuel-injection (FI) system is needed, we first need to understand its predecessor: the carburettor. Both FI and carburettors do the same job: mixing air and fuel in the correct proportions before it’s sent into the engine. The diagram above shows a carburettor’s layout. Air enters at the top, flows through a narrow con...
