TopSpeed reviewed Honda's CB1000 Hornet SP, priced at $10,999 in the US. Its Fireblade-derived inline-four makes 155hp in Europe and 129hp in the US due to noise limits, and it comes with an Öhlins TTX36 shock and Brembo brakes. Priced below the GSX-S1000 and MT-10, it's called the best value in the liter-class naked segment.

Look at the spec sheet — a Fireblade-derived inline-four making 155hp in Europe is the good part. Compared with the outgoing bike, packing Öhlins and Brembo hardware while staying at $10,999 is a pulse-raising price. A bit of a shame the US version is capped at 129hp for noise rules though.

Styling-wise I still prefer the MT-10 honestly.

Just hearing "Fireblade-derived inline-four" gets me excited.

Capped at 129hp in the US is a bit of a bummer.

155hp in Europe plus Öhlins at this price is genuinely strong.

Being cheaper than the GSX-S1000 and MT-10 genuinely hits home.

The naked bike wars keep heating up, more options is a good thing.
