Kathmandu

I have always been interested in bikes since my teenage days. I was very much excited to get this opportunity to test ride such a wonderful bike — Honda Hornet 160R. My journey began from the office of The Himalayan Times at Anamnagar to Chobhar and back.

At first when I saw the bike I thought, ‘yes I really want to ride it’ and as I experienced it, I was just amazed. During this ride, I found this bike very comfortable. It is easy to ride, smooth and offers a good suspension for off-roads and speed breakers. It is not just perfect for the valley but also good for highway rides too. I was surprised and impressed with its easy handling of any kind of road.

The bike imparts a stylish looks making it a real head turner on the streets. Its speed and smoothness will not disappoint anyone. From its brakes, suspension to riding comfort, I can say that I was very much impressed by the Honda Hornet 160R.

Somehow, at some point, I did find a little bit a lack of pick up but everything else in the bike is superb. Its smoothness both on- and off-road won my heart.

I would like to say that no matter whether you buy or not you should definitely test drive this bike and I am sure everyone will love it. If anyone asks me about my experience with the Honda Hornet 160R, I will for sure say this bike is just amazing.
