New Sketches of Honda’s Upcoming Hornet Streetfighter
The significance of a new model to a bike manufacturer can often be judged by how drawn out its launch process is—and since Honda is likely going to have more than a year between first confirming its plans for a new Hornet and the bike actually reaching dealers, it’s clearly a bike that the company has high hopes for.
Honda confirmed its new Hornet last November, showing a stylized computer model of the machine in a video released at the EICMA show in Milan, accompanied by brief clip of the engine note, but has remained steadfastly tight-lipped since then about the bike’s actual specifications or release date. Now Honda, while still keeping the bike’s details secret, has released more design sketches and details of the bike’s development process.
