Honda CB1000 Hornet SP 2025

The Honda CB1000 Hornet SP is more than just a new bike - it's a statement. Honda proves that they can still do it. They have created a bike that impresses in every respect: engine, suspension, brakes, price-performance ratio. You sit on it and immediately know how to ride this thing. There are no puzzles, no nasty surprises. Just pure, honest performance at a price that makes the competition look old. This isn't just a good bike - it's a game changer. Honda is back, and how they are back.

Unbeatable price-performance ratio

top shock of the highest specification

high-quality Brembo Stylema brakes

cultivated four-cylinder with good running behaviour

excellent workmanship and Honda reliability

simple, intuitive handling

comfortable ergonomics for lengthy rides

Engine somewhat sluggish under 6,000 rpm

conservative ABS control without IMU limits braking performance

difficult load change at low engine speeds

longer gear ratio in first gear

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2019

Suzuki GSX-S1000 2019

The GSX-S 1000 from Suzuki looks sexy, has a powerful sound and really smart hardware. It rides stably, easily and is also fun to ride on tours. If necessary, the engine smokes up violently. But it can also be moved mildly. Compared to the finest Powernakeds, it lacks individual features, but anyone who looks at the price tag will quickly realise: A great choice!

Stable handling inspires confidence

Wonderfully sporty engine

Sexy look and sexy sound

Pleasant riding comfort in the saddle

Rides dynamically but also calmly and serenely - just the way you like it.

A little jerky when changing from push to load

a quickshifter with blipper would be incredibly good for it.
