Rider Profile

Best For	Best suited to intermediate to experienced riders who want a lively, revvy inline-four without the extremes of a full supersport.
Purpose	Designed as an agile naked streetfighter for spirited commuting, backroad carving, and weekend fun rather than long-distance touring.
Rider Fit	A moderate 800mm seat height and manageable 198kg wet weight make it accessible to riders of average build and confidence.
Character	Character-driven by its screaming inline-four top end and light, flickable chassis that rewards an energetic, engaged riding style.
Not Ideal For	Not ideal for riders prioritizing wind protection, long-haul touring comfort, or off-road capability.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 800mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Honda CB600F Hornet, with a cramped knee angle of around 70 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
