The 2002 CB900F Hornet was the launch year of Honda's big naked Hornet, sold as the Hornet 900 in Europe and the 919 in North America. It puts a fuel-injected, midrange-tuned version of the CBR900RR FireBlade engine into a plain steel backbone frame, with styling close to the Hornet 600 apart from the twin under-seat silencers. Without a fairing it is aimed at town riding and back roads rather than motorway touring.
