Honda CB1000 Hornet SP Price in India: Ex-Showroom & On-Road

The Honda CB1000 Hornet SP is priced at Rs 13,29,329 ex-showroom across India, making it the most affordable 1000cc inline-four motorcycle in the country. Honda launched it at Rs 12,35,900 in June 2025, and the current price reflects a revision since then.

Ex-showroom is just the beginning. On-road prices vary considerably because road tax is levied by state governments on different slabs. Here's what you're actually looking at when you ride it home:

City Ex-Showroom On-Road
Delhi Rs 13,29,329 Rs 15,00,903
Chennai Rs 13,29,329 Rs 15,40,786
Kolkata Rs 13,29,329 Rs 15,27,491
Bangalore Rs 13,29,329 Rs 16,20,549
Hyderabad Rs 13,29,329 Rs 16,42,604
Mumbai Rs 13,29,329 Rs 16,47,137
Pune Rs 13,29,329 Rs 16,60,430

Delhi buyers get the most favourable on-road pricing, largely because Delhi road tax on high-end motorcycles is capped lower than Maharashtra or Karnataka. If you're in Pune or Mumbai, budget at least Rs 16.5 lakh on-road - that's Rs 3.3 lakh over ex-showroom just in taxes and insurance.

For financing, EMI on a 3-year loan at prevailing rates starts around Rs 38,000-46,000 per month depending on your down payment and lender. Honda's own finance arm through BigWing Topline typically offers competitive rates for existing Honda customers.

Insurance for a Rs 13.29 lakh motorcycle will typically cost Rs 40,000-48,000 for the first year's comprehensive cover. Third-party insurance alone is mandatory and cheaper, but a machine worth this much deserves own-damage cover. Factor in an annual service budget of approximately Rs 8,000-15,000 at BigWing Topline - Honda's maintenance costs are genuinely low for the segment. The first service is reported to cost around Rs 6,475 including labour, which is modest for a litre-class machine. Resale value is harder to predict given the bike's recency in India, but Honda's track record suggests it will hold value better than European rivals.
