HONDACB600S Hornet 2000 - 2001

　　In 2001, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB600S Hornet, a half-faired, mid-sized motorcycle that first debuted in 1998, with a similar appearance as the CB600F and the same technical specifications, but with an additional front fairing and a small windscreen.

　　Over its production years, the bike didn't feature any significant changes and came in the same package as the previous models. The CB600S Hornet was known for its excellent handling, good performance, comfortable riding, and affordability.

　　The 2000 CB600S came equipped from the factory with standard features, such as 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.

　　In the horsepower department, the 2001 Honda CB600S Hornet had its heartbeat set 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.

　　Bolted to the engine, a six-speed manual transmission spun the rear wheel through a chain drive and pushed the bike to a top speed of 227 kph (141 mph).
