The Honda CB900F (also called the 919 in the US and Hornet in Europe) is a 'standard' or 'naked' style motorcycle based on a sport bike engine but with a more upright seating position and revised engine and gearing, providing performance and comfort between a typical sport bike and a cruiser. It was introduced in 2000 and its last model year was 2007. It was replaced by the Honda CB1000R.

History[edit]

The CB900F is powered by a retuned Honda CBR900RR engine, developed by Tadao Baba, one of Honda's Large Project Leaders. The motor is a transversely mounted, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected 919 cc (56.1 cu in) in-line 4-stroke 4-cylinder DOHC engine that produces around 100 hp (75 kW). The engine utilizes cast camshafts and pistons instead of the pricier forged items. For greater midrange punch, the CB900F's camshaft profiles are milder and compression is slightly lowered. Four 36 mm (1.4 in) fuel-injection throttle bodies take the place of the CBR900RR's 38 mm (1.5 in) carburetors. Redline happens at a 9,500 rpm and the bike has a six-speed transmission.

The 901cc 16-valve motor was deemed one of the smoothest engines available at the time of its release. It produced a respectable 95bhp at the crank, which was transmitted through chain final drive via the Honda's 5-speed gearbox.

A steel, square-tube backbone frame supports the engine as a stressed member. In front, a cartridge fork (adjustable beginning in 2004) guides the wheel, while a single shock, adjustable only for preload,(& rebound dampening beginning in 2004) connects with the aluminum swingarm and carries the weight in back. Its brakes are dual-disc in the front and single-disc in the rear.

Instrumentation consists of an analog speedometer and tachometer and basic indicator lamps, incorporated under a tinted window, and a single trip meter.

While the CB900F comes sans center stand, one is offered as an accessory for 49-state models, although it can be fitted to a California model. The bike's rake is 25°, trail is 98 mm (3.9 in), wheelbase is 1460 mm (57.5 in), and seat height is 800 mm (31.5 in). It has a tested dry weight (minus fuel only) of 455 lb (206 kg) and a tested wet weight of 485 lb (220 kg).

Air-assisted 39mm front forks and remote-reservoir shocks were fitted in an attempt to improve the machine's handling over its predecessors. Sadly, the Honda handles no better than most 1980s muscle bikes. The engine is also prone to premature cam chain wear.

Honda has had a CB900 model since 1980 in North America and an even earlier CB900F model in Europe. A 599 cc (36.5 cu in) carbureted version called the CB600F exists. The US models can not use the Hornet moniker due to the name being trademarked by the American.

A 750cc and 1100cc version of the CB900 were also sold by Honda, both of which are increasingly rare.

The 2000-2006 Honda CB900F, also called the Hornet in Europe or the 919 in the United States, is a motorcycle powered by a liquid-cooled, fuel-injected 919cc in-line 4-stroke 4-cylinder DOHC engine that produces just over 100 horsepower (75kW) and weighs 427lb (194kg) dry. The bike has a six-speed transmission. Its suspension consists of a front cartridge fork (adjustable beginning in 2004) and a rear single shock. Its brakes are dual-disc in the front and single-disc in the rear. The rake is 25°, trail is 98mm, wheelbase is 1460.5mm, and seat height is 800.1mm. The engine is based on the unit from the Honda CBR900RR.

As a sport-oriented Motorcycle that provides an upright riding position and lacks a fairing, it is considered a standard or 'naked bike'. Honda have had a CB900 model since 1981.

Related is a 599cc carburetor version called the CB600F (Hornet).



Engine[edit]

The engine was a liquid cooled in-line four, four-stroke. A 71.0mm bore x 58.0mm stroke result in a displacement of just 919.0 cubic centimeters. Fuel was supplied via a double overhead cams/twin cam (dohc).

Drive[edit]

The bike has a 6-speed transmission.

Chassis[edit]

It came with a 120/70-zr17 front tire and a 180/55-zr17 rear tire. Stopping was achieved via double disc in the front and a single disc in the rear. The front suspension was a 43.0mm cartridge fork with adjustable preload and compression-damping while the rear was equipped with a single shock with seven-position spring-preload adjustability. The 919 - Hornet 900 was fitted with a 5.0 Gallon (18.92 Liters) fuel tank. The bike weighed just 427.92 pounds (194.1 Kg). The wheelbase was 57.52 inches (1461 mm) long.

The Honda CB900F Hornet

The Honda CB900F Hornet which was first introduced in 2001, and was withdrawn finally in 2007, has developed a cult following over the years. Its predecessor, with the same name, was first introduced in the Japanese market in 1979 and was factory produced till 1983.

The Honda Hornet, as the bike is called in Europe or the Honda 919 in North America, is a super smooth sports touring motorcycle with steamy looks. It carries the retrograde looks of the 80's and 90's which has been very popular in the early part of the new millennium. Its high, straight stance has a very appealing look and takes back the riders to the age of the Universal Japanese motorcycles.

This Honda bike may not be a gung-ho, rev-happy brute superbike, but it packs enough power to take you on a fun ride on motorways and is equally effective for daily commutes through a bustling city.

Performance

The CBF900F Hornet has a delightful performance and it is the engine where Honda scores the highest. It has a 6-speed manual transmission gearbox. The engine has been tuned to produce nice mid-range power and the torque gets nicely distributed throughout the body. It has a max power of 110 bhp which is just about ideal if you are looking to effortlessly accelerate from idle the redline at 9000 rpm. But it feels best between 4000 and 9000 rpm.

It does not have the bite of a premium superbike, nor is it very intense but the engine displaces a healthy 919 cc. It may not wail like a banshee but makes a pleasant, purring grunt on long drives. The only bone of contention in the otherwise impeccable engine is that the build of power is gradual. While some do not like it, most maintain that a gradual power boost is ideal for road tourers. The drivetrain including the clutch and transmission work effortlessly in tandem and have been engineered to precision.

Handling and comfort

2018 Honda Cb 900 Hornet Manual For Sale

This bike cannot be beaten when it comes to handling and ride comfort. It is one of the slickest midrange sports bikes ever made. It is extremely nimble and the handle bars sit nicely in your hands. Turning round the corners are easy and fun and the bike is extremely responsive. In the initial models of the bike, the forks were non-adjustable and there were some complaints regarding the ride quality. But the models introduced after 2004 has adjustable forks.

Also, the bike has dual disk front brakes with 4 piston calipers and a single-disk rear brake with a single piston caliper which means the gripping is excellent even while turning corners.

Design and riding posture

The riding posture is upright with straight handles. It has a compact riding posture although someone burly may find the bike disappearing beneath his frame. But the classic upright sitting posture with the mono-backbone steel frame supporting the stressed member engine looks ravishing to any bike lover who still fantasizes about the retro cruisers from the 70's and 80's. Ironically, the out of fashion looks of the bike is one of its assets.

With the lowest weight in its class and a superb power-to-weight ratio, this bike has been a screaming winner from the time it was introduced. Its dry weight is below 200, which is extremely commendable for a 900 plus cc bike.

Suspension

The bike has a 43 mm cartridge fork in the front for guiding the wheels without much of a hiccup and is ably supported by a Showa shock connected to the aluminum swingarm for carrying the overall weight of the bike. The bike does not experience vibrations even at very high speeds.

Fuel efficiency

The Hornet has good fuel efficiency. On an average, you can expect 35 mpg but can make up to 45 to 50 mpg on good road conditions without too much traffic. The older versions had Honda's famed air-cooled carburetors, but later on, the company introduced the fuel-injection system. The bike has a seamless, clutter-free transmission.

Equipment

The Hornet bikes come with fuel injection, electronic management system, and 3D mapping. The dashboard has an analog speedometer, a tachometer, and a single trip meter along with basic indicator lamps. The Hornet does not have a center stand and its mirrors are too small. The mud guards are just about functional. A wind protection screen is recommended for highway riding.

Overall verdict

This bike is a general purpose bike with enough oomph and power although its straight relaxed riding posture could be deceptive. It also has a wide rear pillion which makes it a daily commute bike. So if you are looking for a 900 cc sports bike which would not burn a hole in your pocket, you can try the Honda CB900F Hornet.

  • Honda could not use the name Hornet in North America for this bike because it was trademarked by Chrysler.
  • It used the same engine as the 1997 CBR900RR.
