HONDACB600S Hornet 1998 - 1999

　　In 1999, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB600S Hornet, a sport-touring motorcycle part of the CB series and in its second year of production that packed the same appearance and specifications as the previous model.

　　The Honda CB600S Hornet was a half-naked motorcycle first introduced in 1998, with the same visual and technical specifications as the CB600F Hornet but with an additional front cowl and a small windscreen.

　　The Honda CB600S Hornet delivered a comfortable riding experience with its upright seating position and wide handlebar. The bike also featured low maintenance requirements and fuel efficiency, which made it a popular choice for riders of all levels.

　　Also, the bike was fitted with standard features that included a half-fairing with a small windscreen, an under-belly exhaust system with the mufflers mounted under the seat, a one-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a wide handlebar, and cast aluminum wheels.

　　For Suspension, the bike packed a 41 mm telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable monoshock on the rear for optimum suspension performance and handling, while the braking performance was achieved by two 296 mm discs with two-piston calipers on the front wheel and one 220 mm disc squeezed by a single-piston caliper on the rear wheel.

　　As for the power figures, the 1999 Honda CB600S Hornet had its soul brought to life by a 599cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine fitted with four carburetors and delivered an output power of 98 hp with maximum strength at 12,000 rpm and 66 Nm (49 lb-ft) of torque available at 10,000 rpm.
