Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) that recently launched the CB Shine SP in the country, is now all set to bring in the much-anticipated Honda CB Hornet 160R that the company had unveiled at the 2015 Honda ReVFest earlier this year. Though the company already has a couple of 160cc bikes, Unicorn and Trigger, the CB Hornet will target buyers looking for a slightly more premium product. The Honda CB Hornet might replace the slow-selling Trigger upon its launch.

Unicorn was 150CC and it was indeed a great m/c and later they re-coined it as CB Unicorn 160

i found unicorn a little tough to ride because of its heavy and height.

Yes Unicorn is little bit heavy but a solid byke.
