2026 Honda® CB500 Hornet

Step into the streetfighter scene with ease and affordability. With a lower MSRP for 2026, the CB500 Hornet puts aggressive style and real-world performance within reach. No cutting corners here: you get the same sharp stance, quick handling, and approachable power that builds confidence fast. Lightweight, versatile, and now turning heads in Matte Black Metallic, this is next-level thrill meets next-level value.

Features may include:

• Compact exhaust

The exhaust system features twin outlets. It's a small detail, but it looks great, and the sound will bring a smile to your face every time you twist the throttle.

• Programmed fuel injection

The PGM-FI system adjusts fuel levels based on parameters such as temperature, elevation, throttle position, and riding style to improve throttle response and increase power and torque across the entire rpm range.

• Disc brakes

Twin 296mm front discs, paired with four-piston radial-mount calipers, provide strong and predictable stopping power. The front brake lever is adjustable for a perfect fit.

• Lightweight swingarm

The swingarm, used in the entire Honda 500 lineup, is both lightweight and strong, contributing to the bike’s exceptional handling.

• Cast wheels

These lightweight, multi-spoke cast-aluminum wheels are both solid and stylish. They are designed to enhance handling by reducing rotating inertia and are sized to accommodate a wide variety of high-performance street tires.

• Smooth transmission

Our engineers profiled the shift dogs in the six-speed transmission to help you change gears with reduced effort every time. While you’ll likely never see these parts, their impact on your riding experience is unmistakable.

• Dual-level seating

A two-piece seat with a dual-level design accommodates riders and passengers of various sizes, making it perfect for both urban streets and winding roads.

• Accessories

You can equip your new CB500 Hornet with a range of 5 different Honda accessories. These include a centerstand, tank bag, wind visor, and 12-volt accessory socket.

• LED headlight

The dual-lens LED headlight gives the front end a modern, cutting-edge look while still projecting plenty of light on the road for visibility.
