The Honda CB1000 Hornet is the new “Alpha” of Honda’s streetfighter lineup in the Philippines, launched to replace the outgoing CB1000R with a more aggressive, raw performance focus. Derived from the legendary CBR1000RR Fireblade engine, this naked bike is designed to deliver explosive power and surgical handling. For 2026, it stands as the ultimate choice for riders who want liter-class performance in a minimalist, “street-tough” package that emphasizes high-speed stability and massive mid-range torque.

Who is it for?

The Honda CB1000 Hornet is for the pure streetfighter enthusiast. It is designed for experienced big-bike riders who want the raw, unadulterated power of a superbike but prefer the upright ergonomics and “mean” look of a naked bike. It is the perfect weapon for expressway sprints and aggressive weekend mountain carving (such as the Marilaque loops), offering a more modern and affordable alternative to high-end European nakeds without sacrificing the legendary Honda reliability.
