I see alot of comments regarding the health of the engine at these sustained WOT rides. If some of you are unaware you can actually run a thicker oil to help the engine with the higher operating load.
According to the owners manual, honda recommends a 5-6k oil change interval and using their mineral based hondalube 10w-30 - which is fine for normal riding in the city and highway cruising upto 80kmph.
But OP clearly rides his bike harder than the usual commuter so it's in his best interest to actually consider doing his oil changes at 4k intervals and run a semi synthetic oil atleast with the rating of 10w-40 instead.
Following these steps and making sure you let the engine warm up before getting on the throttle , the wear rate on the engine will be minimal due to the added steps you take in protecting the engine giving the operating conditions you push it through.
I've done 148k on my odometer ( 200kms a day, cruising speed 100kmph) and I switched to Castrol racing 10w-40 synthetic from hondalube 10w-30 after the 1st 3000kms as to let the engine season in under warranty ( yes I followed the manual and took it easy for the 1st 4 months of ownership )
Changed the oil every 4k kilometers and I've not had a single issue with my 160r since.
It's all about how much care are you willing to put into your investment to protect it in the long run.
I do all the preventive maintenance and services on my bike which gives me piece of mind that it is actually looked after than taking it to the shitty dealerships which I have trust issues with!
PS- not running the factory rear sprocket I am actually runnin a sprocket with a total of 2 tooth less so i sacrificed a little acceleration for better top end cruising speeds. I lost 2-3kmpl when I ran the 40 grade oil but the sprocket made up for that quite easily.
My bike averages 38-40 on a liter depending on highway traffic ( factory sprocket returned a fuel consumption of 33 on a liter for comparison everything else being equal )
what do you think is life of these commuter motorcycles???
@@grv6209 this is a highly debatable topic gaurav. It all comes down to rider maintenance. And I don't mean just washing the bike and changing engine oil.
Chains will wear out, sprockets will wear out. Suspension will eventually need replacement.
If you take every precautionary measure like I do, you can expect 5 years quite easily out of the machine.
The engine alone ( with good quality oil and oil service intervals based on how hard you ride the bike ) has the potential to go 200-300k kilometers - maybe more before it starts burning oil visibly. ( provided you don't abuse it under any circumstances - and by that I mean make sure the OIL is at operating temperature before u start pushing the engine for spirited rides )
But I'm sure you get the idea by now. 👍
thank you so much
Which sprocket are u using that is 2 teeth less
Not ride the bike at top speed constantly, it will ruin the engine and also will give very poor mileage. Volkswagen was not on the top speed, they still had more speed to push.
Beyond 100speed maintain that speed what's the mileage of hornet??!.. bro..
Beyond 100 my hornet gives me 32-33 even 30 .. if I ride for long
Kya bai it's checking top speed
Not low speed .are yaar
Hornet is a very good bike. Being it refinement, mileage or speed best commuter. Not a proper touring bike
U mentioned not build for proper touring ..but most hornet bikes are using for touring purpose...also i do hav back pain and i am very much fond of long rides..will hornet suite me ?? Help me ..
Go with xblade or Gixxer
@@mahikanna1241 Particularly for your case. Hornet - Pros: Upright sitting, Broad sit, Smooth/refine engine no vibration till 90-100 kmph. Cons: Sit cushion is on harder side, comperatively stiff rear suspension, I feel the food pegs are placed below the buttocks so you can feel stress in your leg and back. You can go for cruiser type bike like avenger as it has soft suspension, streight and comfy sitting.
@@tinkumridha8503 i dont know why i choose gixxer 155cc naked...do u have any idea about gixxer for long ride??
@@mahikanna1241 Gixxer, the new version or older one? I really don't have any idea about the new one, but old one was a really fantastic machine and for city ride it was best in segment. But, as you mentioned that you have back problem, then that bike is obviously not for you man, and for long rides it is really a difficult bike as it's riding stance is quiet sporty and engaging.
I appreciate you sir... Because you have hornet... I love it
This is where the hornet excells over all the competition- Highway.
It's increased kerb weight really goes a long way into high speed stability

The most reliable and a stable bike when unleashed out on the road 😊
Ajay Sood I haven't had a good experience with my hornet as a first bike.
I felt the gixxer to be a better option for city use where most bikes are!
The hornet has very very stiff suspension setup and low end punch is also not that great
sounak bar
I came to the decision of buying hornet over other bikes after long stretch test ride of fz , rtr160 , gixxer n hornet.
Amongst all them , hornet turned out to be most suited bike for me 😊
I agree that the suspension is stiff , but you can adjust the suspension to the smoother side as it is a 3 step adjustable monoshock
Once the bike crosses 3k rpm , the power feel is linear with acceleration
I m saying this because it has been 2 yrs since I ve bought this bike. And even today , I do not feel bad in anyway that I bought this bike.

My Yamaha szr 2011 model does 130 kmph on highway.
U guys r right
Thug Moment 2:11 - 2:17 😋😂
Awesome bike i love this bike. 0-100 km only 10-15 second . Milan 45-50 Long road. My top speed 130km. 160 cc segment this is best lowest price.
130 ??? I think dhalan me ludka hoga
🤔130? Really 🤭🤭🤭
@@anirbanghosh2273 uguy
133 kmph on hornet is my best and that was on a slightly downhill road... kinda hard to push the bike beyond 126 kmph on flat roads....
Awesome, yes u r right
I loved the stability...
Awesome ride man. You should do this more often :)
Thank u 😊 yes I will try some videos like this..
Ha ha ha calm rider losing his calm n became hot rider. Nice video, ride safe bro.
Man this was awesome but be careful buddy. Ride safe 😊🤘
Sure thank u 😊
That was too good... My top speed is 114kmph on my Hornet you have done well 😜
Bike will still go further because of wind blast it was not going.
@@CalmRiderBengaluru What is a wind blast? In simple words please.
Mine went 130 kmph....bs4 17 model
@@azizhamid6480 hawa ka tezi sath aap ke sharir ke sath takrana is known as windblast...
Hey bro, good video but wanted to tell you something. The bike you have is certainly capable of doing this much speed. I have done around 100 on my Unicorn even though it can go above that limit. I avoid high speed riding on this bike because, while it can go as fast as 120, it doesn't have the stopping power you need. And it doesn't have ABS. So, please ride it slow and stay safe.
Yes I know. I do 100+ only on such highways.
I've hornet ... My top speed was 129km/h
Hope Hornet 160R had a 6th Gear, cause till 80ish Km/h it's ok but beyond that the over noisy engine sound the vibration, just downs over confidence to keep it at high speeds, so 6th gear would ease it's job a little
I hope your bike won't face engine problem in future
As much I know you need to make use of 60 to 70percent of your bikes overall performance
i have tvs sport 100cc bike its top speed is 100. is it just 15km faster then my 36000rs bike ? hehehhe
Rishabh Rawat i think ignitor goes 115km... just asked my friend who owns it so...
He he 30 lakh BMW 1200 gs adventure goes just 100km faster than my bike 😉😛
Exactly 😂😂😂
the point is how fast it gets there. your bike may take 15-20 seconds to reach 100. this takes only 7-10 seconds.
Nishant Mishra everyone knows it all r just having fun 😂😂😂
Agar Honda ne isme oil cool engine dal diya to yeh ns ko perfectly takkar degi
Super bro!!! Which extra switches are fitted in your bike?
One for fog light and another for hazard lights
what happens if we suddenly downshift at 1 gear and how to stop if smthg goes wrong like emergency situation
Apply both brake with proper ratio. Don't lock the wheels.
What are the 2 extra switches in handle ??? Plzzz reply
Use motul 300v fully synthetic engine oil with Easter core technology .Don't forget to tighten your bike chain and apply bike chain spray after every three weeks.
Sure
Use motul 300v fully synthetic engine oil with correct engine oil grade and try your new top speed. Don't forget to tighten your bike chain and apply bike chain spray after every three weeks.
Stability is inversely prepositional to speed , when you bike can't gain much speed , then it is obvious that stability will be their...
I did not cross redline. I feel this speed is more than enough for Indian roads.
Hoo😁 calmrider is crazyrider too.. nice bro.. ride to Mysore or Coorg Wil meetup once..😎😃
Ha ha.. sure..
rabbit and tortoise race......ah
A visor and duckin down behind that would have helped you a bit more....
Yes u r right. Wind blast was high so could not go further. But I'm always satisfied to Cruise at 100km/h. This was just to try the stability at higher speed.
bro you should try pulsar AS200 VISOR , it looks appealing
Use a visor nd Tuck down ...1 managed 127 ... 120 constantly for a long stretch
.... I hv installed ktm visor
BDW mature rider u r... Ddnt sway too much wn the red car came silently beside u... And yesssss hornet is both city and highway bike
You need more powerful bike which is more than 200cc.
May be
Depends
Good hornet, I love hornet,,
Hi. Bro which action camera are you using in this video
Careful bro!
Hey can you Please help me...I want to buy a bike... how is the special edition of hornet cbs version? What's about hornet engine? Is it good and long lasting? Please let me know 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Give your opinion on changing the front chain sprocket? Hornet has 15 teeths adding a sprocket of 16 teeths will give another 10% topspeed! Opinion share madu bro.. Coz I want to do it on my hornet
Not sure about it, but new 2018 Hornet has new set of chain. Consult them n change it.
Bro sprocket change madidre plz review it or tell me Abt it .
definitely not a CALM Rider.... but this bike is not in par with cars
Nicee brooo😉👌
Superb Ride Hornet
Thank u 😊
Super maga..😍😎 calm at 119kmph😁😁😎
😁😁✌️
What is the moral of this story? 😀
My 2003 cailaber croma goes 110km/h and cost half from this
He he
My 1995 KB 4S Champion got 90kmph...👍😀👌..
I think you should bend down for it’s more top....
Yes
Yes. Air friction reduces and vehicle speed increases
Although that moto is faster than others, you can see engine working a lot. That’s not good, her true speed is 80-90km/h
Lol, the feeling when you grunt your way through to finally catch up that sedan, another one passes you so effortlessly as if it's in traffic congestion.
Then comes the real bummer, an ertiga comes down and leaves you in dust.
I guess most bikes under 500 cc won't be able to come to terms with a car on a highway.
I know this video is silly, tiny vehicle can't compit with cars.. Thought to share that we can some how keep up with them.. 😁
CalmRider
Nice one though from a fun pov.
In cities small bikes can rule, given the 0-60 and 0-100 advantage.
Use right lanes only for overtaking. I call what u did as cruising. It's not safe to stay right. Becos cars easily do 120+ in no time. We might be surprised. Careful
Yes u r right
Yes u r right
2:10 is a little scary though... The red Skoda overtaking your bike
Next time try to chase Lamborghini
Mere pass hornet he mene 129km/h baghaya he mumbai nasik highway par.
Bhai mere pass splendor he mene 110km/h baghaya he DND par
Lol😝😝😝
Kya farq rah gya 😅😅
Plzzz share touring experience of this bike
Vento goes 190+
I think u were riding on tumkur - sira highway
Yes
Chill man you are overstraining the engine! Definitely need 200+cc to keep up with the cars.
Lolz yes.
R15 v3 is enough
Awesome bike, pickup even mileage too I have this but no ABS :(
RAM new version have abs
Yeah bro i know but i hv old model.. that is why i told.
Nice
On the top speed of 115-120 kmph no vibrations? Is there any kind of vibration from bottom to top speed while the road is smooth?
On my hornet .the vibration is minimal which can be considered negligible.
Very mch comfortable
I have ridden my friends hornet.i dont undestand y that bike not goes above 110
Yes after 110 it struggle a lot.
How your hornet esily cross 100... My hornet take time to cross in 90s ....take to much time to cross 100 ....you have done any modifications in you hornet?
No it's completely stock.. bike reaches 120 easily
Hi I want to buy a touring bike above 150cc which one is better can you sujest
please do same for apche RTR1604V
I don't have that bike
Nice road. Apache reaches 135kph at this type of road. But milage reduces more in 160 4v compare to Honda hornet
Smooth
About
Vibration on top speed .
Good pickup I love hornet
Yes 😊
I'm also a hornet rider I am hearing my chain sound too much does that happen for you sir should I change anything in my vehicle
Cars can easily cross 140kmph, Dont do this bro, engine bega bore ge barutte. yavdadro above 200cc bike nalli chase madi.
Haagenilla bro, hage sumne ondsala calm rider annodana martubitte 😁
Even i too crossed limits some time and tried to chase anonymous vehicles, i did 122kmph top speed on my Unicorn while chasing another anonymous Unicorn, finally we stopped somewhere and had a cup of tea, nice memories. now i stopped chasing because it harms engine while riding on full throttle on long runs.
Install K&N filter, You can do 130+.
No bro, that happens only if u redline the engine, if u observe my bike redlines above 115km/h so not to worry. And only on this stretch i did this speed.
Nice bro, i Know how safe you ride. You do this only on expressways only. Have fun, awaiting your Gokarna Video.
That wasn't calm.. 😉
Bro are you not geeting any extra engine noise because now days in my hornet I am getting loud engine noise above 6 thousands rpm, do u have any suggestion on that.
No I don't have any noise like that.
Timing chain problem...
nice 121..Speed
but bro be care full.
Yes, riding safely 😊👍
Bro what's the real milage that u really getting now at the top speed? Plzz reply me bro
38-40
CalmRider thanks for ur reply bro bro where u brought that hand guards and whats the price of that bro? Plzz reply me bro
Will make a video soon
ನಿಮ್ ವಿಡಿಯೋ ನೋಡಿ ಅನುಕರಣೆ ಮಾಡೋ ಸಾದ್ಯತೆ ಇರುತ್ತೆ. ಅದ್ಕೆ ನೀವು ಸ್ವಲ್ಪ ಯೋಚಿಸಿ ವಿಡಿಯೋ ಹಾಕಿದರೆ ಉತ್ತಮ ಅನ್ಸುತ್ತೆ
Haagenilla sir, idu Asian highways and it is claimed that doing up to 160 in this road is safe. If we see that I was on safer side. If u observe the full video I was not overtaking like a squid, or I was not even changing lanes like crazy. I was decently riding on my lane and giving proper signals for other vehicles. Riding safe is always my first preference. So don't worry abt it. 😊 Thanks a lot for ur concern. I understood what u said 😊👍
Bro,, When you are going for a trip, plz share in fb. We will also join
Yes if its a group ride i will post, but solo rides i will do it alone :)
Omg super
Thank u 😊
bro can u tell me from where u bought handgaurd and what's price of it?
Will make a video soon. Bought it from KTM
Buddy you are riding new Honda cb hornet B's 4 with led headlight ??
No, it's 2016 model
Faze Rider. Hornet was first honda bike and maybe even first bike in India to be launched in bs4. There was never a bs3 hornet!
Apache RTR 180 try karo car piche rah jayege
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ye baik 120 ka age speed nhi badha sakte kya
Itna time over take krne me 😂😂😂
Nice video bro but what is topspeed of hornet
131
Wrong lane mein chala raha hai.
Car takkar mar sakti hai
Leftmost lane par rakhna chahiye motorcycle ko.
Woha boy👍
😊
Bro....where do you get that...hand gaurd....
From KTM service center
Better go with Honda's Legend
👍
Gixxer sf reach 132kmph
R15 top speed
How much mileage you are getting at the speed of 90 to 110
38-40
Highway kahan ja hai
I could achieve 117 kmph only on my Hornet.
Need to find better place where there is less wind blast
Vaibretion hai kya
R15 v3 ka b same rngine h 155 , but chase krne me itna time lgta hi ni ,only 5 gears enough the 6 th to lagana hi ni pdta
R15 is more power full.
R15 is sports bike & Hornet is commuter bike so don't compare with those.
Which engine oil u use Broo?
Shell synthetic based.
adrenaline rush
😁
Kon sa highway hai bhai
Just can u tell price of handguards
900
If the sprocket is upgraded we can cruise at 110 km like butter
Have u changed it?
CalmRider, I am going to change it waiting for my free services to get completed. This is what I have researched so far. Go to www.gearingcommander.com it's really helpful. I need your opinion on this as well.. I have heard good things about this
Deevlogs .. i too hd thought of changing the sprocket Bt the initial acceleration of hornet is very poor.... I hve to rev it up to 4k in stock condition to get going... Reducing teeth in rear sprocket may cause more lag.... Please suggest or do a review after u change
Were is that road bro I mean were are you going
Tumkur to Chitradurga
My top speed 127 Honda unicorn 160 with pilian rider
Good 👌
Bike real top speed yestu means 120 cross madata or ella shine 125 sp has 140 top speed so hornet is 160cc but still hai 120 top speed
Top speed is 131km/h. Because of wind blast bike was not going fast.
Nice speed
Thank u 😊
i also have got top speed 119 kmph but my bike doesn't go beyond it why?
Have to push bit more n play with clutch. Pls be safe.
CalmRider thanks
Amazing drive
Nice video, next time lean down a little bit👍
There was too much of wind blast, this bike does 131. Next time I will lean down to tank n test.
Bro from where u get those barkbusters? Plz reply
What?
CalmRider those hand guards bro
Nuckle guard
Good
Thank u 😊
Bro do u get vibrations in that speed
Vibrations are there in between 80 - 85. After 90km/h it's smooth. Cruising at 100km/h is not difficult.
Aage call car kitni tej nikal gai
Super bro 👍
Thank u 😊
What is milege you getting in this speed
