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.

## Variant-wise Ex-showroom Price
| Variant | Price |
|---------|-------|
| SP | ₹ 13,29,329 |

Note: Prices are ex-showroom. On-road price varies by city (RTO charges, insurance, etc.).

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.
